Hi guys,
I’ve been thinking about making this topic(and about the subject) for a few weeks now and I finally decided to get some advice.
I’m undecided, on one hand I’d like to sell my Rytm to get some other drummers(possibly euro rack) because I feel that I cant get the definition out of the rytm I’m looking for. Dialing in the rytm can be quite fast (and intuitive) but the sounds miss a certain definition, its quite clean and within the lines so to speak.I must admit I havent fully masterd it yet but i’m not sure it will be worth it, maybe I will feel the same about the sound after a few months? I believe that the initial sound should be perfect instead of trying to process it to your liking.
I work intuitive and fast and I’m considering getting some more immediate and and possible simpler machines. For example, If I sell the rytm I could get the DT and the nd2/tanzbar/eurorack next to that. That way I could sample my one shots, have the elektron sequencer and the sample capability but use engines from other sources.
Dont get me wrong I love the rytm but I think i mostly love the elektron way of doing things rather than the sound. But it’s probably just me not willing to put in the work, I just dont want to look for sweetspots for 5 minutes, i need to get a move(groove) on. I’ve read that the rytm really comes to life with the compressor, maybe thats my issue, I dont understand shit of that thing. besides that i multitrack via overbridge so it shouldn’t be the main issue.
Any tips, people on the same boat? What did/would you do?
Thanks:)
