Long sample playback best practices - DJ workflow

Hello everyone,

I intend to put together a tutorial video once I gather all the resources, but it first starts with you. (I’ve noticed a lack of videos on this topic.)

I want to figure out the best workflow for DJing with the OT, using song length (3-7 minute) stereo tracks.

I would guess that a combination of flex and static samples would extend the total time of a non stop set, and allow for layering of shorter loops and one shots.

My goal is to add beat synced effects via scenes and to use the delay control mode to do some glitched up fills. Also, would like to set up a flexible resampling workflow with record triggers and/or pickup machines.

I would love to hear from experienced users on their own best practices for playback of long samples. The reward will be comprehensive resource for the Elektron user community. (I will author video and docs.)

Thanks for your input!
