Octatrack Masterclass 22 hours Video Tutorials - Part 1 is released

Elektron Gear Octatrack

Hi Guys,

finally I finished my first part of the Octatrack Masterclass Video Course (in german), which covers the basics (static machine, sequencing, parts, scenes, working with (loooong) samples, perfoming tricks, djing stems and so on). It has a duration of 6 hours :slight_smile: https://www.dvd-lernkurs.de/elektron-octatrack-masterclass-teil-1-grundlagen.html

Part 2 - 4 are covering the rest (Sampling with Flex/Pickup, MIDI Sequencer & Remote, working with FX and so on) and will be released later (july, august). I recorded most of them, but it has to be edited and stuff like that.

All in all the Masterclass has a duration of 22 hours :smiley: I’am so happy to share this news, it took me a lot of time to produce this beast :wink:

Best, Kai

Is your masterclass German-only?

Congratulations. I believe it will be great education Experience - like last AR Sound design Video.

For non-German speakers: just watching this Video is worth it :slight_smile:

In case someone is on the fence if this is worth it: I purchased the full bundle and can recommend it for sure. I‘m still on chapter one and the lessons are very thorough and well structured. Since I‘m not a complete beginner in the Elektron workflow and already knew a few things about the Octatrack workflow before watching the videos I‘m glad that I started from scratch with the tutorial as I‘ve understood a few things better after and also learned some new tricks.
Not sure if it works fine with generated subtitles but if you speak German, then this is the best tutorial you’ll find.
It’s a lot of info though so prepare to rewatch certain parts.

Darn wish I knew German :slight_smile:
The videos are quite well done and I am re-learning my OT after a long absence.

Yea I feel it’s a bit too costly to get into. Maybe something for black friday with a -50% deal :ok_hand:t2: @twinnpeaks? :diddly:
