This was my holiday setup the last five days, for in between moments. Chose this to focus on purely improvising (loopy techno).
That space has gone through quite a few changes. All good.
Honestly it is kind of ridiculously tiny, it’s slightly bigger than my phone.
@monstergetdown: Good idea to make that one control knob on OT red. I still frequently grab that when trying to adjust the parameter that’s on the first row left in the upper row. Does it also feel different?
Yeah it helps a lot like “stay away from this knob” haha I used a glossy spray paint so it’s smooth
What are your thought about Rytm and Syntakt combo ?
I like it. The Syntakt and Rytm combo cover most all drum/percussion stuff I’d want. Feeding the Syntakt into the AR to have it go through the compressor sounds great imo.
You might struggle to throw that in a backpack though.
Karp tho, that’s cheating!
True.
I went to college in Southern California from 1998-2006.
This is a terrifyingly accurate portrayal of my classmates…

Pondering ditching the Digitone Keys for an analogue keys Synth (however also needs to do MIDI keyboard duties) - Good idea??
Got a new patchbay and finally could connect all my boxes together. I was missing out on being able to quickly route things around, so much more convenient!
The Launchpad pro runs my own custom firmware, it mirrors the midi messages sent by the OT but can also work as a standalone keyboard and is able to distribute MIDI through several channels, making the DT into a polyphonic sampler. Since it’s connected to the computer via USB it can also be used for CC mapping parameters on the DAW.
Hey @badd10de I’m very interested in your custom launchpad firmware - is this something you’d be willing to share please(all risks my own of course!)? I’d be interested in using it / dissecting it / reworking it for use with a volca drum for similar polyphonic / multi midi channel stuff. No pressure of course it’s totally up to you!
