Hi guys,
I was wondering, what is you overbridge workflow ?
Here is 3 différents exemples
Worflow exemple 1 aka "print the performance’ :
- jam with one elektron device to create pattern
- connect it to daw (or even standalone overbridge app) and record a live performance in daw with OB.
- add a few samples etc
Workflow exemple 2 aka " jam and collect ideas "
- jam with elektron device and ableton live sessions view (to add samples etc), or any other hardware synth.
- record audio of each pattern, just to export them
- arrange and mix
Workflow exemple 3 aka “daw program it all” :
- start with opening daw, and linearly arrange a song
- when needed, use overbridge to start a beat/part by triggering a pattern triggered by a midi item on the daw timeline
- go on building song by sequencing device with midi clips/items on the daw timeline
So what is yours and why ? Workflow 1, 2 or 3 or other ???
In my case, I am somewhere in beetween of 1 and 2 : I jam both with my digitakt and my daw (where I record guitars, strings and midi playing virtual synths, sometimes hardware synths). Then I am recording the basic digitakt patterns (not doing perfomance/dj like stuff) and build most of the songs. When I am happy with it, I record some “transitions” by live performing and record just the few stuff I still miss.
