What's your TECHNO setup

Sounds to be a delay and filter but hard to see which ones.

Exactly that, I asked him in the comments of another video and he kindly replied this. And it’s right on the master

Nice.

Slowly evolving…have DN, but not sure how to incorporate it. Honestly, I wonder this could just be stripped down to OT, DB-01, AH and call it a day.

Nice selection! Is that a FMR device in the lower right corner?
Would you share how you perform?

Yes, it‘s an rnla.
Will make a video once set is finished and share the link.

Oh I meant if you’d like to tell a little bit about the setup? How you use each instrument, what sound you’re going for, how you prep the set?
Video of course would be great. I think there are not many longer set’s online.

That wirey mess stresses me out. I’m ready for instruments to deliver power, midi, and audio in/out via usbc. Then that’s just a few small cables

Many thanks, guys - much appreciated!

Obviously, Squid is master. How many tracks are destinated to MD and how do you proceed between these two ? Does MD just used as an expander or do you program the kick and tops on MD and all the percs are Squid sequenced * so you can polyrythm them) ?
Very curious to learn about your procedure. But maybe an explaina-t-on on the right thread


would be preferable ?
All thoses questions because my summer set is near this one :nerd_face:

Nice! I miss our campervan… stolen May 2019, a week before a planned trip to Italy. We went anyway but… it’s not the same.

Edit:

Forgot to add. I made some techno-ish stuff this evening with MFB Tanzbär, Lyra 8, DFAM, Elektron Drive and El Cap delay. Fun it was.

Wow! Thanks for all the questions. Tbh, I just slammed this out there. I’m still figuring out what does what. I was actually trying to sequence the td3 with the squid. But I haven’t had any succes.

Also, as the md had 16 tracks, I have a simple beat programmed in the MD and I can then improvise on top with tracks sequenced by the squid.

Early days on this one, have no clue how to transition yet.

I follow a simple rule. If there’s A4MK2 on a photo, I like it

Sure!

I´ve build up a mobile setup and everything is pre-connected audio & midi. Just need to plug each channel into Xone: 96.

CH1- Drums: audio (deep low kick) from Mbase11 goes into AR. There I layer the kick´s and use AR´s compressor for all drums
CH2 - Bass: DB-01 Bassline
CH3 - Lead, Arps, etc: A4
CH4 - Percs -> M:S / Arps, Pads, etc -> DN. Send audio from M:S into DN. Use DN midi channels for Mbase and DB-01
S/R 1: Nemesis Delay
S/R 2: Ventris Reverb
Master: Analog Heat -> RNLA

Xone:96 is playing a major role in this setup. Full analog, 4-band eq for 4-channels, parametric eq´s for S/R (really cool to shape reverb cloud), 2x outstanding vcf´s with drive/ crunch!!
I can record pre-master each channel with 96`s interface or send master to babyface.
It´s really, really cool to work with. But it takes a lot of time to finish even 1 pattern. It´s getting messy if you don´t care about structure. So I´m focussing on having things clear and every instrument/ track is taking its fixed role in the whole live set. Actually I´m getting very melodic and overloaded when all instruments are playing. Need to reduce the amount of information and drums/ percs should take over the major role for 140bpm dark techno. Challenging! :wink:

What stand are you using?
Jaspers?

I’m sure the Squid gets bigger every time I see it.
