DJ Danbo’s channel is about synth tutorials, live jamming and more. Use all sorts of synthesizers to jam with. Elektron Model Samples, Digitone, Korg Minilogue xd, Volca series, Arturia Drumbrute impact, Teenage engineering Pocket operator, Pioneer DDJ-SX, etc.
Thank you so much, this was a massive help although I found that it didn't work if I deleted the NTS-1 from the list and it still moved it up the list to MIDI 7 which was good enough for the librarian to see it this time. 🙂 👍
Skulpt have better sequencer build in, than Keystep. No quantization, 4 lines of automation, more sequences banks and more. Other than that - very informative video. Thx!
Just use another synth that does have a metronome, or use the metronome in your DAW..... There are plenty of easier work arounds rather than complicating yourself like this.... Even a cheap guitar tuner has a metronome built in....
Hello, I'm looking for a video that shows how I can include a .wav library in the model cycles. First of all, is it possible to include samples and if so, how and in what format? If it does not include .wav and if syex, how do I transform .wav to syex. Greetings and thank you!!
So this is everything you need in a tutorial. No starting with a life story or a huge ass explanation about irrelevant stuff. No just this. This clear tutorial. You’re great
A huge thanks because I would've been tracking this problem all night! Ended up being exactly what you pointed out and you are an MVP for posting this video!
Thank you so much, this is really handy and I will definitely be using it to play around with, probably with Elektron Model:Cycles doing the beats. Also, I very much enjoyed your voice, very calming whilst explaining methodically and thoroughly. Thanks again! 😊
That was a very helpful video and thank you. Good thinking re the snc out to a device for metronome. When I read the user manual and discovered we have to press a number of keys together to ERASE...the keys bear no resemblence to erasure. With a bit if forthought Arturia could have done this by hitting the SHIFT button and then the ERASE button! It should not have been that difficult to have designed the thing ti be user friendly. Shift is normally the one to hit first before anything is erased. Of course this is not your fault. Excellent work and thank you.
I would do this delay looping with my 1010Music BlackBox sampler. Just use slightly less complex looping on the Minilogue, and then record five or more different ones for the sample pads on the sampler. Then launch combinations as see what happens. Once you find the combination you like sequence them into a phrase and then play a melody with the Minilogue to the sampler.
Very VERY interesting. Thank you for sharing with us! About 5 years ago, with the availability of highly programmable effects devices, I realized that my 35 years of subtractive sound design experience needed to add much more experience in effects chain designs. Highly creative effects designs like yours is improving on subtractive design making more interesting sounds. To me a composer of synthesizer music first job is to create instruments that perfectly match the need of the song score being written. After attempting to be a symphony composer from 1990 to 2000 I decided I wasted those 10 years by trying to "FAKE" people out with a sampled instrument orchestration. Using 90s tech made for horrible sounding symphonies. And even today with millions of sample libraries it is still not to my liking. Today we have the opportunity to create our own instruments and then orchestrate them in a song, this is (should) be the goal of any synthesist. The Synth has opened the door for the ultimate in creativity: 1) Sound design for creating our own instruments 2) Effects design for creating our own environment. 3) A creative score. 4) Memorable leads and melodies. 5) Innovative accompaniment, chord structures and progressions. 6) FM design. Granular design. Modular design. Sample/resample design (sampling our analog synths and layering patches to make gigantic stereo moving images of sound). Total creative freedom.
This should have been a 2 minute video. Also why add "for real" to the title then just show the same shit method everyone has already shown. Huge waste of my time
YO TODAVIA NO ENTIENDO COMO NO TIENE LA OPCION DE QUE CUANDO CAMBIO DE PROGRAMA SE REINICIE LA SECUENCIA PARA QUE MANTENGA EL COMPAS COMO CORRESPONDE, ESTOY FASTIDIADO CON MIS LIVE SETS, CUANDO CAMBIO EL PROGRAMA SI QUIERO UTILIZAR UNA SECUENCIA DE 5 PASOS ES IMPOSIBLE CAMBIAR A UNA DE 16 PASOS Y QUE ARRANQUE EN EL INICIO MANTENIENDO EL COMPAS DE LA CANCION, SI PUDISTE RESOLVER ESO AGRADECERIA MUCHISIMO QUE ME AYUDES!
Hello, excellent, I am trying to control the minilogue xd module from an external sequencer to play several sounds with different patterns at the same time but I can't, the minilogue xd only allows me to play one sound, how can I achieve this? thanks greetings
The minilogue is a monotimbral synth, You only can do that with a multi timbral synth. What needed is an audio recorder, you can’t sequence multiple sequences with MIDI. My idea is to get a 1010 blackbox, that can record multiple audio in separate “channels”, but from one device.
Is it possible to start the keystep sequence (slave) from the model samples (master) via MIDI? What settings are necessary in the midi control center software / and gear? I cant get the keystep sequencer to trigger from external gear via MIDI despite changing the dip switches on the back and control center software
This wasnt what i was looking for but this is a great tutorial and set of instructions! Thanks do you know how to increase the real time recording length?
