First try within 5 minutes of unboxing, no clue what I’m really doing, but can already tell this will be a fun machine.

Very nice! Good approximation of the sounds

This sound reminds me 1997 stuff from Downwards- it is weird listening it on a 2020 machines.
At that time it was all hardware samplers (Akai’s and Emu)

Great tune, love the sounds and tempo. Reggaeton vibes.

A one minute snippet of a pattern I have been spending some more serious time on… Control all on pitch actually has a pretty nice sound on this box imo, which usually I find doesn’t work super well on other devices but maybe its down to how the different machines interact with the pitch? Was pushing a track of Kick and Snare with really long releases to try to build a bit of noise floor, quite like the crunchy vibes you can pull from them.

Just chucking my first two “fannying about” patterns that I made while watching Falkirk play the most boring game of football ever. Yes, both patterns have dreadful “control all” moments in them but couldn’t resist 
The second pattern has a go to melody that I always end up using when not knowing what else to do too haha.
Despite my shitty patterns, this thing starts to come alive with a keyboard plugged in though!

I like those snares, are they factory or custom patches?
This isn’t much help but everything was a preset + little knob twiddling. From memory (can check later) the snares were preset with a little decay/colour tweaking.
Two pattns more - Getting more dialed in with the m:c

I’m getting really addicted to this syx stuff - music fits into less space than a crappy compressed JPG meme! For allaya 14,400 bps dialup heads hehe

My first recording, created this morning from a pattern I made playing around last night.
I had decided to try to see what the Chord machine was capable of, as on the surface I found it a bit underwhelming, so I created some dark ambient atmospheres using it with random LFO on shape and lots of reverb and added some distorted drums underneath. Probably pushed the distortion too far listening back, and the random LFO led to a few too many “bell” tones, probably need to tweak the range.
Thought I’d share anyway, love that crunch this machine has and how immediate it is, this was like 30 mins work including recording. And being able to record straight to iPad is brilliant.

Sounds amazing! Good level of distortion imo.
Here’s something I whipped up just now for Weekly Beats. A bit of editing, but other than that, no processing apart from a light limiter.

Ears envelope follower and gate are triggering Tides to create an envelope which is being modulated by OCHD and Clep Diaz.
A lot of fun was had during filming!

Nice. Has very much an Autechre vibe for me. Never a bad thing.
