Something I never noticed before because I don’t often work this way, but it is pretty awesome so I thought I’d share it.
So I took a bunch of samples, 16 step loops, about 70 or so, I load 2 loops to 2 flex tracks, then I decide to slice them into 16, then layout the 16 trigs, then arrange linear locks, nice, but all pretty standard Octatrack stuff.
Next I decide to randomise the slice trigs, cool.
Then I load different samples to the two tracks, but obviously they need slicing, go into slice menu and select create slice grid, cool, it remembered that last time I sliced to 16 and offers that, yep slice, thanks.
Now I randomise the locks.
I repeat the loading, slicing, create linear locks, a bunch of times, and every time I go into the slice menu, the OT seems to know what I want to do, whether it be slice to 16, create linear locks or randomise locks. It is almost like context sensitive AI at work guessing what I want to do. Bloody amazing!
Anyone noticed this before?
