O on loan

Deep_Cycle · 2014-08-14T07:22:59.000Z

A very generous pal is lending us his Octatrack for a bit, he is flat out with other projects and can’t find the time to dig into it at the minute, so I’ve downloaded the manual in preparation, checked out tarakeths blog and gonna start digging through the boards asap but any threads, blogs and general info you think could help please post links.
We are running a Tempest, MDUW, A4, Microbrute, Minitaur and an MC505 into our desk and now that the octa is coming what would you suggest jumping into first?
Cheers lads…

With all that gear already available, definitely sampling/slicing/FX/weird stuff with sampled loops!

You can’t really go wrong with Secretmusic’s excellent OT videos

Great news it seems that lots of people are getting them at the moment. I opened up my octa last night and the first thing I’ve found is its a total trip… Lots of info is not on the front panel so I’m finding that writing down the shortcuts I need and sticking them on the wall is essential. I’m also writing down what it is I want to achieve so I don’t get lost in the smurgeasphere. Stereo samples sound spectacular having only used the mduw for ages.love it .
