Had an idea I wanted to try the other night. (I’ve done it before, but with more pattern per tune…) I wanted to make a set of single pattern “tracks” or scenes or whatever, that were semi-related, but with a slightly different feel, then make a tiny mix with them. The first one turned out a bit dubby, so I went with that for the overall theme. It would have been nice if I could have crossfaded them, but I think I’ll try that another time, and maybe make them a bit longer, more changes within the same scene, etc. So there are five of these little things, and they get bounced between them a couple of times.
All Digitakt. Might try with the Digitone or Syntakt next time, or maybe all three
Between the three machines, and maybe one of my crossfader modules, I could probably get a set together.
I’ve been really loving sequencing the m:c with the m8. It allows me to get much more freeform compositionally… This is a snippet from a video that I made for Instagram (hence the video bedazzling)
Wow I’m honored! Small kids feedback is great, when they like it I’m happy. My kids are older (12 and 14) and I also appreciate their unfiltered reactions.
My friends baby started dancing to my latest (more finished track) and that put a smile on my face. Maybe your kid likes it!
If you organize hardcore free parties in the land of flies, it will be a huge success.
You’ll have to trick the police, be discreet, but these parties will be memorable.
Got a Fender Mustang Micro headphone amp sim thing to connect my guitar and bass directly into the Digitakt. The new record length option is super useful!
demos such as these are selling the device for me very hard, but then I check workflow and nope out instantly, can you describe a little bit of how you’ve created this? Are the phrases sampled, or sequenced? What was sampled? I imagine this is heavily processed with internal effects? Very nice tune btw!
Thank you! The samples are from two Serge panels. I don’t really use the sequencer of SP. My workflow is usually recording some sounds, layering them, resampling the layered versions, maybe adding some resonator, pitch shifter…etc, then sending to Serge again to process the SP via its filters, wave multiplier, res eq.
I quite like the workflow and the interface. Very fast to work with. Sometimes I send some cc messages from OT as well. But these days I’m also trying to figure out what kind of workflow can work for me by trying different stuff. In the long term I think my way would be building my own setup/workflow but I’m slow with Max.
Another experiment from me with the A4 sequencing the 522 and the TD3 … I have been playing with using all those LFOs to add accents for swing and polyrhythms … I can’t send any LFO mods to the TD-3 (unless I can …?) but the acid sequence has lots of conditionals to add movement …
