You just use them to build chords. 2 oscs each with a sub osc. The sub osc can give you one octave, two octaves and a perfect fifth below the main osc.
The manual has a section about it:

Just curious: it took you a full month to find that out?

I really enjoyed this set. Are you relying on performance macros for the effect changes or sequencing most of that stuff?

Yup, performance macros are in heavy use! Pretty much all parameter changes done in real-time.
I love my A4 but I’m wishing for an Analog Eight.

@dobermate: Thanks for the listen! A few are my own (vs. most of the synth sounds) but by and large I relied on a few choice third party packs (will check names and get back to you). One trick that I like to use is to create an 808 type sub with a short decay assigned to pitch to create a kick and then p-locking the length of the the amp sustain to create a bass/kick interaction on a single track.
Edit: It’s surprisingly complicate for me to identify exactly which drum sounds came from which packs but some of the collections I use are: Kimura Taro FM and Mod Drums and probably a few from Floppydisk Pirates. The other commercial libraries I own are Elektronoso Vol. 1, Escape Tones, and Next Level. Sorry if this list isn’t very helpful but I can say with certainty that Kimura Taro is a solid place to start for drum sounds…
@steve-b: This set is all A4 mki recorded in a stereo take to Live. Thanks for the kind words!
@Adam9: Thanks for a listen!!!

Thanks for the kind words, and sorry to sidetrack, but everything on my YouTube uses Elektron as the core. As a teacher by day it’s hard to keep up the work as a night crawler sometimes…

when you live record a polyphonic sequence with all 4 voices used it’s easy to rebuild the exact same chord structure by reducing the poly voice allocation to mono and turn up the 5th setting on the sub oscillator.
