A live, semi-improvised performance, all on hardware, and inspired by some time convalescing. It's my first time using the Octatrack for some ambient, droning sounds, and once again, it doesn't disappoint. As before, the Octatrack's scenes are the star of the show, allowing for me to fade in/out tracks, as well as add modulation and effects either by track or on the master. What a beautiful machine.
I've also been pretty keen to give the OB-6 a spin for a while, since I love that Oberheim sound and will never buy the vintage gear. Despite its classic tone, it's got a lot of great modern features... that I don't really take advantage of here. I simply started playing it and this patch (007) sounded so good that I had to record something. Next time.
Elektron Octatrack MkII - samples, track effects, master effects
Sequential/Oberheim OB-6 + Eventide Space - poly synth
Novation SL MkIII - MIDI controller for the OB-6
Written and performed within a 2-hour period, and uploaded as is, with only a little compression/limiting on the master.

lol I had this playlist on in the background and IMMEDIATELY recognized 007 from an OB6 and clicked over to make sure. That is my absolute favorite preset.

@poxipaul 4 года назад

I think that the 007 sound of the OB6 it's one of the most beatifull sound of this synth! Really nice!!

@RobertTheWild1 3 года назад

The sound coming from your Elektron at the beginning reminds me a lot of the intro to Godspeed You Black Emperor's "Static"

Hi, can you be so kind and tell me how you feel the Novation launchkey keybed? Whay are your feeling about it? Great videos

@JayHosking Год назад

It feels good! Hard to quantify. It's about the same as the Komplete Kontrol series of keybeds from NI, same as what's on the Summit. Certainly OK for anything that doesn't require a lot of velocity work (e.g. piano), and even then, if you're a pro, it would probably be OK. And thanks!

I think the ob6 is the best synth around. Yes, I’m biased. Yes, I own one.i have a studio full of new and vintage synths/drum machines/effects units..etc. What Tom and Dave have done with upgrading an obx and a prophet is amazing! Kudos for a great soundscape vid too mate. 🎶🕶

Great video and piece. Thanks for pointing out the great preset on the OB-6, I'll have to revisit mine again. Also, thank you for the hidden SL-III embedded review, you've confirmed my thoughts on this controller. I wonder if they used the same keybed /chassis for the Summit.

@JayHosking 4 года назад

They say they did use the same keybed! Which means that thing is probably a dream to play. If I wasn't so fond of my Peak, I'd probably strongly consider a Summit.

@jackm1091 4 года назад

I know this probably is one of your easiest-to-put-together works, but it nevertheless evoked a lot of emotion and imagery in my mind's eye. I thought it was beautiful, and would love to hear where you would take this next with additional time. A full production with something like this portion as a beginning/end, and a middle segment of higher intensity/energy with some drums would make for quite a thrilling cinematic/narrative experience. Anyway, thanks for sharing.

@fernandomercado2711 4 года назад

DAMN THAT OB6 HAS SOME TONES SON!!! Wow. What a great composition Jay. Great soundscape. Love the stuff going on in the whole spectrum. Textures really give it space. So huge. I love this. Like a sad version of Lorn with all those textures. Or a Mogwai track. Really good stuff. Makes me really think about the octatrack to pair with my digitone. >.>

@allanroney 4 года назад

I had the OB6 desktop for a year, and agreed 007 is THE patch. It’s a wonderful synth, but sold it as it’s so distinctive it kinda dominates the other gear it plays with. I’ve now settled on a MC707 + Prophet Rev2 + Subsequent 37 setup; those two synths are perfect compliments to each other.

@CharlieMacMillan 4 года назад

Question for you and potentially Jay as well, as someone who has been eyeing the Rev2 and the OB6 do you think the 007 patch could be recreated on the Rev2, or is it not possible to nail without the SEM filter?

@JayHosking 4 года назад

Hard to say, as I've never really played around with the Rev2, but I imagine you could get close to it on a number of poly synths. Give it a shot!

@thomasekman4548 3 года назад

I am with you regarding the Novation mk SL III.. I thought it would be a great performance Master keyboard and sequenzer for all my hardware Synthesizers since I prefer to play DAW less.... but I realized after two days that it was ... a nice keybed to play my gear... maybe quite ok arpeggiator... but the sequenzer did not really convince me....

@villekotala6483 2 года назад

Hey, many have recommended the mk SL III for me since I am looking for master keyboard and sequencer, but I am a bit sceptic about it. I have thought about getting the Arturia keystep pro and only con I have heard about it is that it has minikeys, which I dont personally mind. Any thoughts or recommendations?

@BluffMunkey 4 года назад

Great jam. I agree about that preset too, it's an absolute killer app for the OB6. First day I got my OB6 I got to it and just stayed there for an hour.

@JayHosking 4 года назад

That's literally what happened here! This is the first day I got my hands on the OB-6.

@BluffMunkey 4 года назад

Bingo lol. I probably won't keep my OB6 because it's (almost) a bit of a one trick pony, and ties up too much fund/space that I would rather put into other things, but that one single preset is what keeps me from letting it go. Ridiculous as I literally make a living making presets......

Downer alert. We're just contemplating between letting our beloved 15 years old dog go, or to stretch it until she's as far as we possibly can at this very moment after our vet told us to let her go yesterday, and we didn't listen to him.. decided to take her home so she could live for another days. I know she has few more juice left in her hence the decision.. for now. Then tonight, I randomly played this video and it hits me pretty hard. Thanks for the great tune & tones. Sorry for the random comment, just needed to let it out off my chest.

So the 6 voice poly means only 6 notes at the same time? But can you put extra notes in your daw does it override the 6 note limit

No, at most the instrument can only play six different notes. It's a physical limitation, with only six voices worth of oscillators and filters.

@GeorgeL909 3 года назад

Something about the ergonomics and the symmetry of your hardware layout really appeals to me in this video. Like the octotrack, ob6 and midi keyboard all kinda line up perfectly (but not too perfectly) and everything is within reach, it just looks like a joy to play with. Ergonomics.... Makes a big difference 😂. Obviously sounded great too...

@sjkentucky 3 года назад

How do like the SL MK3 as a controller for hardware? I need a decent size controller strictly for hardware, no daw stuff. My little Keystep only goes so far:)

@JayHosking 3 года назад

It was a little big for my setup and didn't fit in the sliding space under the table. In addition, I got impatient and failed to remember all the great updates that Novation brings to their stuff. As such, I sold it and have occasionally regretted it (though I still don't have the right space for it). It's a great controller, very nice keybed, very easy to get going. Sequencer wasn't my favourite of the Novation line but I bet I'd be more into it now with the updates. I've been keeping my eye out for any used. Hope that helps!

joshua maloy I don’t think they make any controllers that feel as good as a keybed on any high end synth to be honest all controllers I’ve seen feel toyish and cheap. Could be wrong though.
