Hi @sezare56 I live in northern Italy. I started as a bass player and songwriter in some reggae and punk bands and I listened to a lot of dub stuff as well; then I joined a kind of folk / ancient instruments revival scene; now a lot of years went by and I’d like to do something new joining the two things together
At now I’d use the models:samples or another sampler mainly to provide samples for drums, to be triggered by the digitakt midi tracks. So I’d keep a bunch of m:s patterns which would act as different “drum kits” and this is the reason I’d like to select them by Program change from my digitakt song.
But I don’t dislike the idea of using the m:s sequencer as well. Sometimes some song could start with the usual drum sounds driven from midi tracks, but since the midi transport is active, the sequencer on the m:s is running too and I could also decide to add in real time some hits or loops on the m:s sequencer just improvising.
I usually don’t use slices that much, but as I told my aim is to provide a common ground for all songs to start from, then depending on the single arrangement I can decide to use different things on different songs
