I love this thing so much.
6 tracks is perfect for some old fashioned banging sweaty basement techno.
Just paired mine with an EHX Platform compressor, I won’t spam this thread and take it off topic, but if you want to hear it, I made a quick tune with the pair and put it up in the Platform thread
$300 sampling drum machine + $100 limiter. I just love what you can accomplish with so little these days
I had some cheap $300 and $400 drum machines back in the day. DR-770, R8 MKII. None of them sounded like or could do such interesting things with sequencing. And never could I dream of doing a live set with just those and a looper.
I’ve been putting my older Rytm sample chains in mine. There are loads in the Files section here on Elektronauts. It’s breathing new life into those samples.
MS’ massive 576 slot limit means it is less necessary, but it does make scrolling through sample hits a little quicker. And if you CTRL-ALL the sample start parameter, you’ll get a lot more variety in a break down.
And a tip for hats, use one track by loading an open hat sample. Bring the decay down real low to make your closed hat sound. Then p-lock the decay open on steps where you want an open hat sound. Simple solution, no need for sound locks.
