who asked for this?? everyone... Its sounds incredible, but you have to actually be creative to get it instead of being fixate don making the same cookie cutter bullshit that you are hoping to make a buck off of
This is a horrible review not just structurally but fundamentally. Clearly there is a market and all your described "shortcomings" could be seen as selling points to the actual target audience. Medieval techno is a nice genre if done right.
This product is for workers of rennaisance faire's, for when they finish working for the public, and start playing medieval techno, tie each other up, and ( ( ( F U C C ) ) ) Unsurprising that a R&B artist doesn't get it, It's not for you! and that's ok ! but yeah i get it, engagement, current thing, Algorithm. This is the same product as the original, with extra samples and a coat of paint. it does everthing the original does... And you could delete all the samples and put your own on there.
don't be so prissy lady. If you got your panties in a bunch because of this product, touch grass and stop taking yourselve so seriously. It's a dope little sampler, and if you don't like the factory presets, just swap 'em for your bog standard one shots, and you're safely back on normie territory with this one. Don't be so shocked a corporation can make artistic decisions too, even if they make less commercial sense than cold logic dictates. I think that's actuallly refreshing. Cheers!
I really think teenage engineering has to be looked at through the lens of a design/fashion house that also produces some great synthesizers/music hardware. They aren't attempting to respond to trend or consumer ask, but rather selling engaging hardware that encourages all people to make music. The medieval is so fun to me because my nephew plays D&D. Now I can be the bard, do a live electronic medieval soundtrack, and most importantly bring over a cool-looking gadget that will hopefully get him excited about making music. My TE stuff is still the only pieces of gear I've gotten my fiancee to play with and the only stuff she'll let me leave out in plain view in the living room, there's value in that.
🤷♂️ I like the medieval it’s been a blast to create with. I feel like you take yourself a little too serious to be all spun up about a company making a product. I added dark ambient samples and get a great vibe outta it.
If you can't see how flawed a product like this sampler is then you're more than likely to buy into all their other gimmicky toys. The lack of ability for more memory space on an already abysmal 64mb of sample memory, on top of almost half that space already taken by medieval samples that you CANT REMOVE. The machine isn't the worst thing in the world, but having sooooooooo many limitations on top of the price on top of what's already out there in the market...you're just shooting yourself in the foot. Teenage engineering isn't even a instrument company anymore since they got acquired by some bougie designer company. It's a fashion statement. All about feeling coooooollll. A toy in every sense of the word. It was tolerable with the PO line of samplers, but this...geez
@@WarpedBlinds lol you act like TE personally attacked you. You ok? You sound like Trump with all that hater-ade you drinkin. Seriously, why you so wound up about something that isn’t for you existing? Also the mini freak is garbage. You see how ridiculous I sound? That’s how you sound.
🤔… Maybe an internal mgmt bet gone wrong??? Yeah, maybe you can just replace unwanted sounds. But surely they targeted a VERY NICHE market. It will make the now OG KO2 more desired though. The thought of a camo themed option… Yeah, way better to me. 🤦🏾♂️ 👍🏾✌🏾
some ppl sayin it is tapping into the DND market which I guess is many millions. I think it is stupid, not in a good way. Definitely a waste of money and I wish they'd make the ep-133 better instead of making this :(
The same ppl who asked for this and bought it are the same ppl who bought their $1,200 Folding table 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 They Trolling fuck no I aint getting one I like my Maschine Mk3
It was a weird idea to do this format. There are a lot of other themes but hey, if it sells....good for them. I have the original and I'll stick with that. That one works for me, with all the limitations. This version just doesn't spark me with inspiration.
It's funny, I had the polar opposite reaction. The KO II looked pretty boring to me, but the medieval looked like way too much fun. I'm tired of normal drum kits, time to see what I can do with some cow noises.
I Would like to Have Seen How The 4i4 is Connected… Especially to The Laptop, Power Wise… I’ve Heard That There Can Be Some Issues with Using the Power Source from The Computer Connections to The 4i4? In Other Words… Do You Have To Use The Plug Into Outlet to Power up The 4i4 or Could You Use This At a Park with No Power Source But Your Laptop?
this is such a great video - thank you for going so in depth! I've been looking for proper reviews to see functionality, and your video is BY FAR the best one - thank you <3 <3 <3
So at the risk of asking a stupid question, have you considered just using Ableton to do the vocal effects that you want to do, that way you could have them already set up with the song you are doing and have your whole set list already mapped out with all your different vocal effects that you can map to a midi controller or even just map it to your push, controller and if you are using your push to trigger song sections, like intro, verse, chorus, then you could just include your vocal effect parts in that with not much more work than you've already done. But if you are using push to trigger clips live and doing the arrangement on the fly and don't have song sections set up, you could still have a row on your Push that you set up for your vocal effects. I don't know how many different vocal effects you are trying to do in a set, but i would imagine maybe 10 or 15, you could even use another midi controller similar to push that you use just for your vocal effects and harmonies and then you can set it up and organize it to where it makes sense to you from a performance stand point. I might not initially suggest this route, but if you are already depending on a computer in your set anyways, then to me, you are already taking the risk that might sway me away from trying this route. I'm always a little weird about depending on a computer during a music set, but it's done all the time, and done well. So maybe something you could play around with. The best might even be a hybrid setup where you have some of the vox FX in Live and some on your pedal, or maybe have all of them on both, where the pedal is just a redundant version that you can move to if something seems off during a set or for any reason you need to not use Live for your vocal effects...? just my two cents on it. Live is just crazy deep when it comes to setting up stuff like this. The deeper you are willing to dig, the more it will give you. It's pretty crazy how deep Live is for performance all the way around. It's worth a shot anyways. There are these thing in Live called follow commands that if you don't already know about, you should totally check out. These allow you to tell live, after you play this loop for 8 loops, then do this....you can program how many repeats you want it to do. So if your intro has that loop playing 8 times, and then it goes to the verse for 16 bars, then stops and goes to another loop for 8 bars, you could actually program that ahead of time. A lot of people don't know about this part of Live and it's probably one of the most powerful little things that no one talks about from strictly a performance perspective. You can have multiple follow commands attached to a loop too, so you can tell it how many times to repeat with just your normal vocal, and then how many bars to switch to the FX vocal and then how many bars before you switch back to the normal vocal. if that is a little too scary to have it programmed ahead of time, because that would mean you would have to hit your changes in the same place every time (accurately, yeah i know...) , then just look at the option of triggering via a midi controller. But I will say that you will get better at it each time and eventually feel confident if you do program them ahead of time because it actually takes some of the workload (and thinking) off of you during the actual set, so that you can focus on just singing which is the most important thing to the audience. To me, I want the audience to wonder how i was doing it, i don't care if they can see me doing it in real time. Love your vibe, keep up the great work.
Thanks so much for the recommendations! I actually have performed live with Ableton Live and most recently with the Push 3 Standalone. Check this video out when you can; it’s a quick demo of my live performances ♥️ ru-vid.comu4Z9l8dN8TY?feature=share
Good To See That You Are Sticking With The Mini CD's...I Think That Is Forward Thinking For The Future..And Like You Was Saying You Can Update The Content Whenever You Choose..I Hope Nothing But Success For.. And Always Keep Coming Up With New Ideas.. Peace..
The Mpk mini is a great starter controller, theres only 2 things i dislike about it. the pads are only reliable in the corners (causes stutters if played in the middle) and the fact you cant control your DAW all from the controller. its decent for the price tho id recommend it to anyone starting out. Currently tho ive been leaning towards Native Instruments devices (better pads and DAW integration) (Ableton + Maschine is a pretty dope combo)
Did you ever try the TC Helicon Voice Life Stuff ... ? As am also searching for a solution, I would like to see a video like this comparing the voice Life devices (the small and the big one)
I am a big fan of the TC helicon effects for singers, I’m sure that for what you are trying to do they will work much better because I think I understand your mentality when it comes to affects. You want full control on stage and as little programming as you can have in advance. You are basically a performer and not a programmer. so you should give them a try they have much better algorithms as well, that is something you mentioned in your video. Overall grade work and keep it up! Also congratulations for a wonderful song.
This video is awesome! Thanks for taking so much time and care in demoing what these all sound like, and I love the side by side comparison. I love the song too
hello!! the video is great, I just have a question for which I haven’t found a proper answer: how do you define the tempo? what can I do so I can recognize the tempo of a beat? thanks in advance!
