@ Jay Tee or who ever can help.
I know you've been on quite a few tracks with the talkbox.

What You Do (Fingazz)
Baby Girl / Every Minute (Magic)
All Night / La Raza (Roger Troutman)
... and so on


I was wonder what equipment they use: from the talkbox to the keyboard and sample.

Banshee Talkbox
Helis Talkbox......
Mini Moog (Keyboard)
Yamaha DX100 (Keyboard).....

I know that toward the end of Roger's career he used the Yamaha DX100, but not sure what kind of talkbox.

Already tried the studio forum a while back and they didn't really give me any good info.

Cool good lookin out playa. Not too many people have mastered the talkbox, and I'm sure they want to keep it that way

I know a few west coast producers that use the Rocktron Banshee. They say most dudes on the west use them. You just need a keyboard that has a phattt synth or bass patch to run it through. Mini moogs got real thick sounds so some use that, but you can rock it through a triton, motif, etc...

Good shit dogg. thanks for the feedback. Right now I got a Banshee and a Motif es. I've tried damn near ever fuckin sample on that thing and it doesn't sound as clean as I want it. The motif got some tight synths but nothin like the Mini Moog.

Thanks again Amplified

I can help answer this...

Roger used a mini moog in the beginning and a DX-100 towards the end....He used a talkbox called "The Golden Throat" made by Electro Harmonix....They no longer make them but you CAN find the parts to make one yerself (info on the net). Magic uses a DX-100 and a Rocktron Banshee and I think Insane Mixaken does too...However you need the right presets for the DX if you want "THE" sound....It won't be the same just stock. I was lucky enough to get the Roger presets from a guy who shall remain nameless....

Hope that helps

edit: Oh and for the record, the Banshee has a built-in amp while the Heil and Golden Throat require an external amp

Mark 7 always comin thru. Thanks money $$$
The saw sample really ain't workin on the motif like I'd like.

I use to have the DX-100 back in the day. Didn't know you could load samples on to it.
One last Question about the famous ("THE" sound,) and the presets needed.
How would I go about gettin them, and how much would it cost?

and since it doesn't hurt to ask:::: WHATS THE DEAL WITH THE ROGER SAMPLE, you sellin it or givin any info on how to obtain it :)

Thanks again Mr. Mark 7
