Yessss its a great combo. The only thing about the M8 is that it kind of handles MIDI a little weird. Make sure to put some note off commands in your external instrument table, and you should be good to go! At least thats how I've gotten around it hahaha
Woahh hey there Matthew! Thanks for dropping a line! I'm a huge fan. You make some great tunes and some great templates. I'd love to catch you live some day. Come out to Denver please! Also thank you for singlehandedly teaching me the Octatrack hahaha.
Cheers thanks for the sub, friend! As for sidechaining on the M8 - I might do a video on it, but so far what I've been doing is putting a "trig env" on the notes that I want to side chain on within the phrase itself, then pointing that trig env to volume in the mod section of the instrument. I put the volume to negative and dial in the attack / decay on the env to taste. It accomplishes it pretty well, but I'm sure there are better methods hahaha Great question and thanks again for popping by!
@@voxmnemonic I’ve not really checked into the M8 much. Never seemed to fit my workflow. But I watch all your stuff because I like the end result anyway 😁
@@voxmnemonic man, I wish! I have a 4-voice synth by SpaceBrainCircuits that fills that spot for now. I think I’ll be shooting for a Teo-5 in the next year or so… gotta satisfy the Oberheim crave eventually.
Thank you my dude! Yeah I posted it to insta so I just figured I'd start throwing my reels up here too. The Minifreak is new! I love the thing so far. Its crazy versatile without being too bogged down.
Fun video. Good pics. I'd give a left nut for SOMA LABORATORY PULSAR-23 in BLACK, Im done haveing kids anyway. I'd give my spleen for a Oberheim OB-X8 Bi-Timbral Polyphonic Analog Keyboard Synthesizer...
The Motor Synth is hilariously awesome, and it is a piece of art. It makes an _incredible_ racket itself, though none of the mechanical noise comes through the recording... so I stuck a contact mic on the back of it and record the motor noise to throw in the mix sometimes. I bet they spent a lot of effort to keep the motor noise out, and this jackass just puts it right back in :). Made a video on some of the aggressive kick sounds I got out of it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-p--ZB8l5yXQ.html
Ahahahaha thats so awesome dude, I want to get my hands on one so bad and just see how ridiculous it is first-hand. Nice channel! Going to go through your stuff shortly! Thanks for popping in and dropping a line!
I don't really consider such expensive ones because I would be scared to break them. I learned about the polyend tracker + today and that tickled me a little. Fun video!
Yesss that thing looks awesome, I'd love to get my hands on one too! Expensive synths are pretty scary to work with for that reason hahaha, I guess they're just relegated to the studio unless they're really built to travel.
Awesome video, really hope to see more Syntakt tutorials from you (also soundpack sometime in the future maybe?) Furthermore I want to add that when playing less rhythm-focused styles of Industrial or smth close, another good practice is to do everything the same way, but using FILTER envelope with the HPF instead of the AMP one - this way excessive lowend from the bass is still reduced to make space for the kick, but without the pumping effect
Cheers dude! I like that idea with the HPF... I'm going to experiment with that tonight. I like the idea of it for sure. I could see it adding an interesting texture if I dial it in right. Cool tip! I appreciate it Also, sound packs probably coming this summer! I'm thinking I'll likely do 2 small cheap ones to pilot it out. Thanks for dropping a line! Good to hear from you!
Thank you for the amazing tutorial! Please make more Syntakt videos. Also, personally, I'd like more Octatrack videos and insights into how you use them in your setup. I really love your sound and energy, and I believe more people need not only your educational but also fun videos. Thank you!
Ahahaha if I would I could just for you man. Someday I'll have the means to bring it back, but my goodness is is just so expensive 😅. I appreciate you dropping by yet again my dude, you're one of the one's who have been around forever, and I can't say thank you enough!
@@voxmnemonic you didn’t actually get rid of synths?! Pretty sure that’s against the law in several states. You’ll have another modular in the future. I guarantee it 😁
Been around since the beginning and I’ve always wondered why the Mighty Algorithm hasn’t picked up on you yet. I’m sure this will be the right move. Greetings!
Cheers! Thank you for chiming in here and showing support! I appreciate it so much! Hopefully some day we make it into the algo and get some attention! Hahaha
