Hello, I’ve had the DT for prob more than a month or two, love the machine and all. Did a few nice sample based triphop beats on it, great.
But for the last week or so I’m hitting a wall. Been through a giant stack of records to sample and nothing. I build a break, sounds boring after 10mn, erase pattern. Go through records I sampled before, even more boring. Anyway it gets frustrating.
Part of me wonders if instead of trying to pretend the DT is a MPC, I should just go back to my MPC (to that respect the DTs great visual user interface helped me understand quite a bit about adsr and envelopes).
Or instead of trying to find excuses to why it doesn’t work, I should give it a rest for a few days, sleep on it and get back to it.
I think the latter but the machine is so addictive that I can’t stop using it. And get more frustrated because nothing comes out. (Frustrated or not, I get more familiar with the DT so it’s not all lost). Then comes the “why am I doing this, if I don’t even enjoy it?”
Not sure where I’m going with this but I just wanted to share!
