Sorry 
I did buy an M:C and come here for that, but went way off topic. Apologies

I’m at least considering formatting a couple gigs using the OT and M:C only. I really enjoyed watching Ess tear it up and sound massive with just the M:C

M:C sounds so good. and the simplicity is DEFINITELY attractive.
wonder what exploits people will find digging into it. im sure you can force it to do some stuff that wasn’t intended.

Oh yea, he killed it! M:C-OT is perfect. My workflow is entirely tied to the OT. I’ll like to at least try and do the Model’s only combo.

I don’t know if any other M:C owner can chime in here. But there seems to be some cross modulation going on in the distortion. As soon as you start clipping one track all other tracks sort of interacts with the distortion in a way. It’s quiet hard to describe and it’s not something I’ve witnessed in the OT or DN. I wonder if it was done on purpose… maybe @Ess can bring light to the subject?
I’m working on an M:S + OT live set at the moment, and it’s a great pair.
M:S is the sole sound source, OT is looping/slicing in flex, EQing, compressing, effecting, transitioning… Great combo, and M:C would be no different, workflow wise.
6 tracks in the composition is perfect for a live set. And the immediate interface means one pattern is enough for a whole “tune”. Loop and slice/mangle phrases that OT records out of the Model:_____ breakdowns, and it makes great bonus layers to fill in the space. Neighbor routings plus careful LFO use on panning and FX of those recorded phrases really makes the final product sound wonderful.
One of the reasons I am waiting to get the M:C is because my M:S + OT combo is working so great.
I don’t want to abandon the well!

These are nice. Now I might need to uncancel the order I just cancelled.

Spotted an M:C in Headless Horseman’s set up for a killer live set at DJ Magazine’s studio this afternoon

That’s just what happens when the master mix clips, you can do it on the DN as well but the headroom is a lot higher. I’ve been doing that a lot lately though, there are some tricks around it.

+1 for that @Ess perfect circuit performance. The way he pulls the power cord at the end was so punk rock man!!
I know it’s early but I’m hearing peeps personality come out of this thing right from the start. I mean Cuckoo sounds like Cuckoo, RMR sounds like RMR, Dataline sounds like Dataline etc.
Overall I’m hearing a lovely dirtiness to the M:C whereas (my) DN jams tend to go clean.
Great layered, nuanced musical instrument jam box Elektron well done!!

Aah ok. Yeah I think that might be the thing, I’ve never really dived into the distorted side of Digitone.
I think it’s really cool, I think noise musicians would love device cause there’s so many flavors of distortion in it…
Does anyone know if the reverbs on the M:S and M:C the same algorithm?
M:C will be used to sequence my Korg ARP 2600FS. Blew all my budget on the Korg and could afford an Elektron sequencer until M:C

So are you going to do a “Model” trinity? That would be a sick live setup.

I recently stepped off the kerb with euro this week when a Clouds arrived in the mail, I had pretty much limited my thoughts about it to MI, and the bug was biting pretty hard about that being a next sort of musical path to take. But now the M:C drops and it seems very capable, and sonically diverse enough for me to explore certainly ideas I may perhaps have had with Plaits. That said I think I need to keep euro a long, commited, slow road, not something I just throw all my money at. I’m trying to develop a really solid financial base this year. Truth is, the music gear train is an expensive one, and I want to be on it, but you’ve gotta look after yourself first.
At least for us here in Australia there’s just no chance to ever be part of the launch train everything comes here two weeks later, at the least I can avoid the drop hype and see where it lands in a few weeks once the thing hits the stores here

Speaking of M:C dirt. I’m keep trying to make deep house with the M:C, but as soon as I push a kick or other instrument above 60 on the Volume + Distortion knob, I’m in the techno zone. And I LOVE techno! So I just make techno.
I swear I’m going to make a deep house track though. But the M:C honestly wants me to just push it to its limits. So fun. Can’t help it.
But I swear I’m going to make some smooth sounding deep house with it. And not the YouTube “Deep House” but the Sunday night Flammable style deep house. The West Coast’s longest running house night right here in Seattle, BTW 
That’s my goal today
