Looking for Old Science Lab 3-step Song? (MD/MDUW)

[1ticio]

I searched and searched, but no luck. Searched in The Lounge/Mission-Briefs, etc.

Years ago, I seem to recall a challenge, or maybe it was on elektron-users.com where a user made an entire (interesting) song using only 2 or 3 steps. I believe it was on a MDUW, MnM, or OT. I don’t believe it was the 1 sample or single-cycle waveform Science Lab. In case it wasn’t a dream, I’d like to hear the song(s) again. And read the technical details. Any ideas?

Thank you.

Oh shoot! I remember seeing a l, I think, two step machinedrum track.

Nifty things on those silvers

Three steps? Luxury!

MD Science Lab: 2 Step

Hi, so I suppose this is the first Science Lab on Elektronauts. The rules are simple: one Machinedrum one pattern pattern length is 2 steps everything else is up for grabs… the goal should be to create interesting music within this limitation. feel free to base your experiments on creative live-tweaking & record the results, or making a pattern which runs by itself & evolves through the use of LFOs, or anything else. but do not switch patterns, and do not set the length to more than 2 seq…

That’s the one! Thank you Ryan and Peter, you’re very helpful.
Going to go have a read (and listen).

Hmmmm … would be interesting to see how this challenge works out on the modern Elektron devices.

Had a read-n-listen, and it seems like the UW had the advantage in spicing things up over time compared to the non-UW, so would be interesting to see what can be done on the OT. Or the others. The extra routing in the MnM may be interesting for this as well.
