Interesting video - thanks for sharing your workflow! You mentioned using the H9 on a return track in Ableton. What kind of effect were you using it for?
Thanks for the inspiration to pull out my Rev2 again which I almost sold to discover, with a good sequencer, its worth integrating into my setup. For purposes of keeping everything in the same timing I'm using the Octatrack but with the velocity and 2nd and 3rd notes its giving me some dissonant sequences.
Great stuff. I’ve been watching this on loop. I pick up something new every time. For sure, deep dives on the Ghost and the Noise Plethroa would be awesome. For me I prefer the process vids. I’d love to see an in depth tutorial on your approach to sequencing, pattern lengths, how you use the slides, modulation, how it interacts with your delays etc. I always love your sequences. Anyway keep up the great work. Loving your sound.
Have you looked at NE's Xer Dualis? 6hp mixer with clickless mutes, can take mono or stereo signals. I found them so useful I have 2! Also matrix mixers are tremendous! I use the 2 Xers in conjunction with one
NE have so many good utilities. I'm happy with the simple Doefer one, but I need to buy an attenuator. Sometimes I think a 7U case would be great for live as I could fit all those utilities in the 1u row.
It's probably amazing ! It looks a bit busier than the OG which is crystal clear but there's quite a few new features. If I didn't already have the Cwejman SM-1 I'd be tempted :)
Great video. I know this is years ago now, but you can externally clock pams by using the din sync cable ALM make, as the digitakt can output din sync from the second midi output. 0hp and maybe slightly easier than going via ableton! Edit: someone already said this!!! Nvm!

Really inspired by this to try some new patch ideas and use what I have instead of buying new things - except for maybe the Noise Plethora, eventually. 😄 Thanks!
Always fun to watch these videos! You probably know this, but you can get out of the 12ET tuning of the Metropolis by simply attenuating the pitch CV with a VCA or precision adder like A-185-2. Attenuate by 50% for 24ET or any random amount for something more dissonant. Actually, come to think of precision adders, I wonder what the two sequences from the Voltage Multi and Metropolis would sound like added together (especially with different sequence lengths or different clock tempo ratios)?
yes of course, I usually have a manhattan analog CVP for that very use but I'm hurting for space a bit in this situation. I can also send a static offset in either of the aux input to make it more atonal.
damn i think i have over 24 channels of mixing in my modular, can't live with em. I have one 8channel mixer for reverb another 8 for modulating and another 8 for "main" out. Great sound!!
ah yes of course mixer are sooo important. But in a live scenario I wouldn't need that many channels. Just a basic one like that already makes a world of difference
Through your amazing demo's I got inspired and ordered a Modular Channel. Finally after more than a year it arrived last week. Best buy ever. Holy smoke!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing! I love your sound a lot, but it’s the carefully crafted bass/kick that really makes this stand out for me. Do you play the bass lines from the OT? And do you process the lows any further with the overstayer? Would love to see a video on how you handle that part, especially in your liveset. And: please do come play in Berlin!
Kick bass usually comes from loops I've made recently in the studio. I always record all my loops, and then I make stems out of my favorites. I usually process kick bass either together or separate in the overstayer.
Thank you so much for the video. You know I enjoy your instagram content too but having videos of that duration is super cool. I wanted to ask if and how you are processing the drums? The kick is coming from the re-909 I guess?
Thank you for watching :) Yes the kick is always coming from the 909 but processing differs from time to time. A mix of plug-ins (bass mint is a favorite, pedal from ableton too, some black box HG2 etc...) and Overstayer (full mix and drum bus sometimes too).
Exactly. I've used the unprocessed kick live a couple of times too, it's fine if you do the opening and it honestly slaps with a bit of saturation/compression but if you're playing peak time after DJs with ultra mastered tracks then I quite like having the processed kicks/bass in the Octa.
nice this was super fun to watch while driving across states to this regional burn. Wish i had the modular with me now to play hybrid but i don't risk it in the dust
@@LucasMarchal ah I meant replace the Metropolis with m185 :) You mention the 3V from Metropolis is not ideal for cv-ing Bark - m185 would give you bigger range (also on a switch with unquantised mode)
T'as bien fais avec le Noise Plethora, ça déchire pour chordy sounds. Avant de prendre le Coral, c'etait une option pour moi :) Le ghost ahahah we all have the same feeling that it sucks and sounds bad, until we use it and set it properly and understand that the sum of the whole is good. Mine is getting the Xone96 master send return in for transitions, breaks and whatever :P but also add distortiona and compression and it sounds good, just set the volume and voila. On y vas :P
Oui vraiment malin et original comme module. Ahah yes; when you think about it it’s pretty magical they managed to get to such a good/useful result with such basic building blocks
I have to say I haven't explored the poly env too deeply, not enough to make a video about it. The CVP is super useful but it's just a bunch of utilities, nothing crazy about it ! Just patch it in between of your sequences or modulation, so you can add/remove, slew, offset etc... I have a little segment on it in the Model 158 video.
