Im just not super impressed with this one. Sorry guys. Regret upgrading.

Is that bed a tarva?

This isn’t fake I actually just shaved and sent my clippings to spi

Excuse me but where is your mask

beautiful weather here in central Texas today howdy

haha decatonic scales. Right then. i’m happy with my knowledge of heptatonia prima and secunda, plus a smattering if folk music scales.

It’s not THAT buggy. There are some but they have been pretty good about firmware updates. Apparently they are working on the next one that will address most of the bugs. Digitakt was so buggy when I got that I sold it after a few months. So far tracker hasn’t had any deal breakers. I think some of the “bugs” are just people not understanding how trackers work. If you don’t input OFF steps when you are using long melodic sounds, there can be some weirdness happening. The best thing about it to me is it’s an 8 voice polyphonic sampler. Just as fast as an op1 but with real sequencing capabilities. I even made a video.

That’s some narrow electrical tape.

barker’s is 1m square https://www.voltek-labs.net/plate-reverb And anything can be a resonator, really. I know that from having music boxes. They are dead quiet on their own, but placing them on something as simple as an empty cereal box will make it resonate very clearly. So I feel like you could probably use a wide variety of materials for usable results. Obviously metal is best.

One thing on my bucket list is building a plate reverb. It’s alluring when you compare how expensive they are to buy and how relatively cheap they are to make.

haha I said midrange not $600 boutique. Biscuits are selling for $1200 on reverb. People are deranged. That said, if I was going to buy a $600 reverb, it would be the oto bam.

I want to get into circuit building but I am already spread too thin, it’s a miracle I get anything done.

I feel pretty good about what I have now. Doing live stuff with tempest, model cycles, polyend tracker, and keystep, plus fx. Only think I might want is a new reverb in the coming months. i have a tc electronics nova delay and nova modulator, considering getting a nova reverb just to finish of be trilogy. Not many people have those, most people have eventide, or strymon which is honestly ridiculous in price. Open to suggestions for a good midrange reverb, preferably with the i/o in the back and not on the sides.

You can go into the project folders without opening ableton. Should be usually two folders, one called recorded and one called processed or something. All the clips are in there. Then you have to be careful that you don’t mess with them, but you can open them all in audacity and export them without messing up the reference file and create havoc for yourself later with a bunch of missing file tags.

music only has the power you give it. stop giving aphex so much power. i always listened to his music for the sweetspots, which really represent about 10% of his output...

It runs fine for me. I have a 2015 MacBook Pro

Can someone please tell me what MPE is, is it just like roli thingy

Man that looks REALLY good.

I’ll never play one ?

man i just bought this and it feels like i paid for a speeding ticket. i REALLY like the new phaser flanger now that i've messed with it, but the chorus ensemble is puzzling to me. i could already get a nice vibrato with the chorus before. i learned the ableton chorus so well i could get almost any modulation sound from it. seems like they kind of dumbed it down so it's easier to get sweet spots. in fact, that's what this whole update feels like: they have taken all of the things that power users have been doing for years and added them in the form of a "THE BUTTON" style interface so people who buy midi chord progression packs can dial in sounds. spectral resonator is amazing though. i made an entire drum beat with just one kick drum.

Has anyone tried making demoscene-esque stuff on the digitone?

Let the record show that nikisoko is a fellow FM elitist

My current favorite FM plugin is the DX10 by mda. Lately I’m tired of all the flashy GUIs and feel like I spend way to much time looking at fake wood grain when I’m making music in ableton. So just using basic free stuff and then doing further mixing and mastering in audacity is feeling very good to me right now. i feel like too many people try to push FM to extremes when I’m always trying to get it to be very subtle.

Im a hipster

well.... this app is AMAZING. i've been addicted since i installed it a few days ago. been jamming a lot with my brother who lives in japan. the way it works is it has a bunch of little preset instruments for drums, bass, melody, very similar to figure if you've used that. it also has microphone/line in. and then it has an 8 part looper that is continuously looping, with a really long history of buffers. i would break it down into 3 hierarchies: 1. Layer, the most basic building block. when you record anything, it gets added to the layer pool, which has 8 spaces. 2. Riff, which is a grouping of layers. each time you record a new layer, it creates a new riff. 3. Jam, the equivalent of a room. Each jam has a history of all the riffs the room has made. you can go back days and days into the memory, and supposedly, with the $4.50 subscription, you have infinite history. A really cool thing is the FX section. FX can combine up to all of the 8 layers into a new riff. you apply the effects in real time with an XY pad, or you can do it from the parameter page. Usually when i enter a jam, i will rearrange whatever terrible EDM loop is going and try to turn it into something better. You can also change the BPM which also changes the pitch of the riff as if it was tape. Endless is basically a really efficient workflow packaged into a very immediate and reactive app, that so far has worked very well. there is a lot of potential for other features. You can make a jam and invite people, but it would be cool if it functioned like a multiplayer game and you could browse a list of a bunch of public jams. Right now I think the public rooms are kind of a set number of categories that are all pretty cheese pandora EDM chillout/lofi beats to study to aesthetics, but the app itself has tons of potential. the way you have to commit your ideas to print and move on really encourages a rapid generation of ideas. i highly recommend installing it. it's free on mobile. i will post a link here to my dub techno room if anyone wants to come hang out. there is also a chat room. https://endlesss.fm/jam/520c0be9862065ef92b61fc378e48f1661f159a77c3e9cfbe9558bc2c1d89b3/join
