more c.b. and battery questions

Okay, I've chased this up a tree, I think. I set up control burst like
Killing joke specified. However, the burst app does not seem to save
settings for the second mandala, which should be on channel two,
right? So, if Im using control burst, I don't need to mess with the
virtual brain at all? Now an issue with battery. I'm having problems

Hi Everyone!
I have a perfectly working Mandala 2.0 that I would like sell. I've
owned it for a year and quite honestly have not played it that much(I
estimate about 3-4 hours). It comes with all software cds and a USB
cable. As much as I like it, I must sell it immediately, no
particular reason, just need money and I don't have the time to

control burst and such

Reading the forums, I think I have the basics, I'm assigning my
mandalas is battery, and clumisily being able to assign one zone per
cell through the vb. I'm confused about control burst, I thought one
pad goes on one channel, and another pad on another channel. I'm not
losing the mandalas in battery like the previous post, but the signal

Does anyone have real tama octoban samples? Is there any in battery?
One more question about battery, what is the limit to the samples you
can load into it? A sequence of notes?

Hi everybody,

here's a problem I've experienced a lot recently using the mandalas
with Battery 3 , and I've got no clue what the reason and/or solution
might be:

Basically my setup with the pads and Battery 3 on a Vista machine
works fine, but Battery sometimes "loses" the MIDI device during a

Hey Guys,

i am one sad idiot^^. I have purchased the mandala usb drum and it did
not work on my windows pc (even with asio4all the delay was too bad).
Since i live in Germany, i had to pay about 450 euros to get the thing
into my studio (shipping, tax, and so on...). I wanted to try the
thing out so badly that i bought a macbook pro (!), because i had

mandala broken!

boke...@hotmail.com (bokeman) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 15:27:51 UT

I´ve got a problem with my mandala. They sent it to me with metalic
crew broken. And not only that, but also there is not sensibility in
the center of the zone 1. Have you had any problems with yours? How
can I claim to send me a new one?

COULD I COMPOSE A SECUENCE OF NOTES?

boke...@hotmail.com (bokeman) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 14:32:24 UT

Hi, I´d like to know if I can compose a secuence of notes. For
example, in the preset "Magundhi", you can play the different notes in
a predetermined order to sound the melody. Can I do the same with my
own notes extracted from a midi editor? Thank u!!

VAC not showing up as an audio driver

ama...@gmail.com (Adam) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 05:07:28 UT

I want to use the VB app in Cubase, so I downloaded VAC and installed
it. Problem is the VB software doesn't see the driver. I've tried
several other applications and they see VAC fine. Any ideas? I am
running WinXP SP3, the latest VB software and the latest VAC. I have
an M-Audio Profire 2626.

Presets not loading...

hi everybody

I purchased my Mandala USB Drum about a month ago and am since then
experiencing major problems which I can't get rid of.
I've already looked into many forums but could't find any similar
problems yet.
It seems that my Virtual Brain is unable to open up any preset - the
name change in the preset list will take place, but the instruments

Foot controller help?

nickosdrum...@gmail.com (Nicko) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 06:34:19 UT

Hi,

This isn't so much related to the Mandala pad itself but I thought
someone might be able to answer this (fairly) simple question with
regards to electronic drumming with the Mandalas and foot controllers.

Basically, I'm using the Mandala pads with Battery 3 but I'd also love
to incorporate my Roland FD-8 foot controller (along with the

Upon looking closely at Danny Carey's set up on his Paiste cymbals
poster, I noticed that the mandala drums on his kit have 1/4inch
outputs. They do not have individual brains, like the original
versions of the drums. Anyone know what's up with this?
