Excellent! A brand new hour long AK/A4 tutorial by Cuckoo.
Just what the OP was asking for.

Don’t know if you see, he done something on Sequencer for 1 hour long

cuckoomusic · 2014-10-12T16:09:55.000Z

Hey, I had a crap day. Reading this thread is making me very emotional. <3 to you all! Thanks!

And as some of you might have noticed, I’ve made one long video with sequencer and song mode in focus, on the Analog Keys. And I’ve done another on how to create a sound from scratch.
Is there any specific aspect of the Analog Four/ Keys that you’d like to know more about?

Dude, thanks for doing these! Half way through it and have learned a bunch so again thanks for taking the time. Yes, performance mode would be something worth doing a video about it. Now about the Octatrack video….

Urgento · 2014-10-19T15:21:25.000Z

By the way, thanks particularly for the sequencer vid. I’ve only had my AK for about a month or so and had worked a lot of this out, but it’s been nice finding out some additional key combos/functions.

Branbolio · 2014-10-19T20:01:41.000Z

Thanks for the work cuckoo! I would love to see another A4 video on:-saving things properly in the a4, also loading sound packs, and creating kits from other premade sounds and saving them as sound bank presets, also how to dump stuff into my computer once my machine is full (which it now is).

I need to get a better grasp on file management. The structure of patterns, sounds and kits still kinda confuses me.

Fwiw Cuckoo man, you are the best. Your music is fun and your personality caries over into the videos very nicely. I learned more from watching your videos then by reading the manual, that is for certain! Wish you could make instructional videos for all of my gear

Alienna · 2015-11-01T18:14:03.000Z

Yes Cuckoo they are very helpful & you have your unique way to show us keep on doing what you are doing xxx greetings from belgium, thank you for the reply

I uploaded my first soundpack on Sellfy today:

K’s Analog Four soundpack Vol.1 - Vintage Leads
https://sellfy.com/p/zrwz/

I made a readme accompanying this, explaining how to load sound packs to the +Drive. Maybe this is helpful to some of you (from the readme):

How to load the sounds:

Included is a .syx file that carries all the sounds for your Analog Four +drive.
I can only explain how to load these using Elektron’s C6 application, but sending the syx file with another application should also be possible. These are the settings I use for C6 and work for me and my Analog Four.

1)Get the Elektron C6 app.
2)Connect your Analog Four with USB, turn it on, open C6 and drag and drop the .syx file in the main blank area .
3)To get the settings I use in C6, click configure and make sure Elektron Analog Four is selected at MIDI in. Elektron Analog Four should also be selected at MIDI out. Reload files is unchecked, delay (ms) 0, turbo limit none, sample settings tickboxes are unchecked. SDS devNo is set to 0 Rec format SDS.
4)Click OK if you have made any changes or cancel if it’s already correct.
5)On the Analog Four click Function+global -> sysex dump -> sysex receive, select +drive sound, then select the bank where you want to save the soundpack and click yes/save. Note: A bank with (256) next to it, is empty, since a bank can contain 256 sounds and the analog four is telling you how many free slots are left in the bank. The analog four now indicates “waiting data…”
6)In C6, click on the file and then click “Send”.
7) Analog Four shold display “received sound (103)”
8) Keep clicking no/reload to exit the sysex dump menu on the A4 until you’re in the main screen.
9) Thats it, your sound are now loaded and ready to rock! Click function + sound and select sound manager or double tap a track button to browse the sounds. Bank A is stored under trigger A, bank B under trigger B and so on. So navigate to the bank where you stored the sound pack to check it out.In C6, click exit.
