Havent seen a thread about this and I would really like to hear your opinions on this one. Im on the fence of either purchasing a Dirtywave M8 (Version 2) or Octatrack MK1 (2nd or 3rd time)
Im not playing live on shows etc, only for use home and be creative to complement with Ableton as well but want to stay away a bit from the computer…
Whats your thoughts, which one do you like the most and which one is collecting dust in the drawer?
Ive used the M8 and i really like the tracker workflow, find it a bit similar to the sequencer of Elektron with parameter locks and so one. Ive owned basically all the elektron gear of the past years but ended up selling them and thats included the Octatrack but i really love that as well.
I really love the thought about the portability of M8, to bring everywhere when i want to make some music. In studio i much prefer work in DAW with my 9U modular case for main focus, ive tried to include OT before with the modular system but i find its too confusing…
