Live Instruments with Elektrons

Oh, and a couple posts up I mentioned programming mode, and jamming mode. Programming mode for me is usually at night and that’s where I think about trigs and routing and and all things techy, with the help of a nice caffeinated beverage sometimes up till 2 or 3. I don’t really play music in this mode but I listen to things over and over while tweaking and then do little test runs once I have a new idea programmed.
Jamming mode for me is usually in the day, I really like to play music with the sunshine vibes. In this mode I don’t really think about techy stuff at all, I just play music using the stuff I programmed the other night…
There’s some crossover of course but in general that’s how I operate, I also have a few other modes such as funk lab experiment mode. That mode is lots of fun and I get to far off realms by over ridiculous use of routing/processing/modulating, etc…, but it usually pushes me into some corner that’s hard to integrate and doesn’t really get me any closer to a live set, but I get to hear some crazy sauce sounds probably never to be heard again. :dizzy:
