Right Beep. I am wondering why this thread has taken such a bad turn. 
 
JB and Charlie are two people I like very much. I read their posts whenever I come across them. I find it sad that they are finding fault with one another. 
 
-->>  I'm hoping this is nothing but an aberration that will soon go away.   <<--




Hopefully, John...  
 
Both seem like fairly positive members aound here, so I find it odd to watch them arguing in a thread like this.

Thanks Steve. Its hard to post a lot and not on occasion post something that isn't our best. I try to post things that my Mother could read without embarrassment. Then, she was a sailor.

how can you be giving advise to anyone when you cant even do something as simple as posting on this forum ?
surely you didn't grow up before they created the "post button" ???



In all fairness to jb101, there have been quite a few incidents of multiple posting since we got the new forum software.
 
It even happened to a real super-hero posting expert just HERE - and if you'll notice lower down in that thread, Ryan knows about it too.
 
 
 


"in all fairness."
 
ya that's really fair steven
in other words, I didn't read what jb wrote, just the trash you write charlie.
I mean its all good, he says: "I just came storming in here knowing nothing as usual"
insults my grammar and you think that's fair ?
 
 
 
 
 



Charles, what the hell are you on about?
 
Seriously, are you paranoid? Or are you just incapable of discerning between a cordial observation when it's proffered, and a chastisement?
 
Where do I intimate that you write "trash"? And how could you possible be cognisant with which posts I've read and which posts I haven't?
 
All I was trying to explain was that accidental, and completely non-anticipatable multiple postings have been occurring quite frequently since the new forum software was implemented.
 
To be honest, I would have though that by utilising a little jocular self-deprecation, it would be apparent that I was not endeavouring in the slightest to be contumelious, and indubitably not discourteous.
 
I hope that sets the record straight.
 
As far as one's grammar is concerned, I was always educated that it was simply good manners to write correctly. My personal and abiding maxim has always been that if one expects others to read what one has penned, it is the least one can do to make it legible, coherent, correctly spelt and punctuated, and accommodating as few grammatical infractions as possible. 
 
As Edgar Allan Poe once opined: “A man's grammar, like Caesar's wife, should not only be pure, but above susp-icion of impurity.”

I apologise to the OP for taking this thread down a bad turn.
 
And I also apologise to other forum members (especially John, whom I respect a lot), if I have not posted at my best.
 
I have some sympathy with the OP, even though I do not use the matrix.  If I had been led to believe that the matrix worked with MIDI, I would have foolishly assumed that it would work with hardware synths. I have not read the literature for X1 in this respect, so cannot comment if that was the impression given.  I can see that it was not a bug, just not intended behaviour.
 
Whether I agree with the OP's manner of posting is irrelevant, I can see how he would be frustrated.  I'm glad it now works in X2, but that does not help him.
 
I just felt it a little unfair to berate him - he doesn't seem to be another godparticle.  I even tried to give gp the benefit of the doubt..  for a while.

...he doesn't seem to be another godparticle. 



In my best Scottish accent: "There can be only one".      Fortunately.

I'm sure if there were two it would be the harbinger of the apocalypse..

I wonder if the harbingers use Mixcraft...

I think they moved on, didn't they?  To Studio One, or somesuch.
 
I believe you can even customise DEATH's horse's colour, so it doesn't have to be grey..
