if you can knock out autechre in ‘cheesy’ tutorial mode then i can’t begin to imagine what you’re doin’ when you put your serious hat on - wtf happened to your A4, have you given it a stealth makeover or was that a bad case of the flakey paint i read about on the forums - kudos and well demonstrated

plebeyo · 2013-10-08T19:16:37.000Z

Thanks for sharing this, void, really impressive.

I’ll die for make some “cheesy” tunes like the ones you’ve used in your tutorial…

Really great video. Pretty inspiring stuff. Thanks.

THAT is awesome.

void · 2013-10-09T11:53:07.000Z

cheers guys

anyone playing around with this? Seems to me the endless-arp can be used for a variety of nifty tricks…

Nice! Thanks VOID!

Just catching your video and tutorial late. I wanted to login and say thanks for sharing this tutorial. Really amazing sounding demo as well. I’m looking forward to trying out this technique.

PS - sick A4 modded faceplate

thanks

Wow. What a great tip.

TrondC · 2013-10-26T10:25:30.000Z

That was insane. I’ve so much fun just using the A4 in a not-so-exploring way but this is a whole new lever of awesome. I haven’t even toched the arps yet (shoot me) but let’s just say that I’m gonna change that right now

vargasz · 2013-10-26T23:23:48.000Z

great trick i was thinking about how to change pattern, but keep some things the same!
awesome that you figured out

void · 2013-10-27T11:27:26.000Z

an idea i just had with this…
don’t have my A4 here at the moment to play with this…

making a polyrhythmic pattern (INF length…) which is filled up with p-locked & sound-locked trigs (INF trig length), various sounds, various arp settings per track & per trig (where possible… i.e. no2-4 params)… not every trig shall have a trig, rests can be useful too…

this pattern shall serve as a sort of “lottery tumbler”…

then, in a different pattern (the main playing pattern), trig mutes are used as outlined above…a quick pattern switch to the “tumbler pattern” and back to the other pattern should then “grab” arpeggios from te tumbler, more or less by chance… the polyrhythm and DIRECT JUMP mode should ensure that it’s not so easy to predict what kind of sound you’ll end up with (not sure if the thing with polyrhythm actually helps in this case)…

kind of like in the video I posted above, at the beginning this is happening with the 16th hihat arpeggio, but there it was planned, I knew that the hihat arpeggio is trigged on step 1 of track 2. so this would be kind of like this, but more random/chancey, involving all steps and all tracks… could be interesting, dunno…

Brilliant. Cheers Void.

Thanks Void, for not only giving us ‘just the tip’, …but video too.

(“See what I did there? Hello? Is this mic on”)

Anyways, just post giving thanks!!!

djenzyme · 2015-01-26T00:47:34.000Z

Thanks for this awesome tip. I’m still a noob at this but i just tried this trick and it has opened up a whole new avenue of possibilities!

Cunningly devious, or maybe deviously cunning!
