and also on sequencing these changes / is why we have 3 command columns and 2 ENV and 2LFO also 3 command lines in the tables.

What little I know of tables so far, I learned from here - big ups!

My Keystep 37 is the first MIDI controller I’d use with the M8 Tracker, because it’s just sitting here already.

Kind of a pedestrian tune, but I had a lot of fun messing with tables today

That goes back to my original post though, I’d like to be able to sequence edits across all instruments without having to do it seven times over, especially since I often fill up three lanes of FX. That’s why I think an instrument class for doing so would be cool! If you’ve ever used ctrl all on the machinedrum and sequenced that, you’d see that p locks on individual instruments aren’t a substitute, same with fx lanes here.

Well I’ve already done this but with 8 tracks resampled as 1 /with m8 slices , then you can easily retrigger / do master FX over all your sound with one command ! But also seems like your looking for a feature that’s not in any tracker besides maybe renoise? Ahaha I wouldn’t mind a control all either but don’t hold your breath. My rytm mki and DN don’t have ctrl all and I’ve gotten by!

OMG…need more units…need to buy one…cmon!

I need 420 units come ON!

Faderfox midi controllers look really nice but they sure are pricey. I’m hoping to find something in the $100 range that has sliders…

Has anyone here successfully connected a Korg nanoKontrol2 to their M8? Seems like a perfect pairing.

but it’s usb / so you’ll need some sort of midi to usb hub retrokits dongle! Price : 109$ usd

alexbuga · December 10, 2021, 7:48pm

I got an Offgrid from https://www.birdkids.io
This retrokits hub could be used to connect that to the M8 too?

UPDATE: Seems like so. Awesome. Added to Christmas wish-list. Oh and they’re from EU. Awesome! No customs!

The RK-006 is such a sick hub, highly recommend.

Something quick I did. Really having fun with the M8 Tracker so far! I would describe it as extremely versatile and it constantly invites (lures) you to play with that pattern you were working on just one more time. It pushes you to keep fleshing out a song.

blackincali · December 13, 2021, 11:49pm

Nice track! What synth engine did you use?

glooms · December 14, 2021, 12:08am

Agreed! Love your track too!

That was fun.

Cepheid · December 14, 2021, 5:26am

Thanks! It was my first attempt mangling a drum loop. The synth is Macrosynth - Saw Swarm and then I layer it with Macrosynth - Saw Comb.

Unifono · December 14, 2021, 10:06am

very nice!

Snipecatcher · December 14, 2021, 10:38pm

Tried to mellow out and do something kinda peaceful and wound up with this crap! M8 only. Used some older Cwejman SM-1 samples I had forgotten about
