Hey everyone ! back again to cut up some breaks! - ABOUT THE NOISE -
My beta unit M8 does not like usb-c converter-dongles when it's being used with external display, and i used a new computer to make this video (that only has usb-c ports) and some horrible usb noise showed up in the recording - i edited as much out as i possibly could to minimize it but... - i decided to just post this version of the video while I plan out my next few videos, so this might get replaced with a better version in the future - apologies -

Was struggling to figure out how to easily chop my breaks when timestretch was enabled...got to 3:49 and literally had to sprint and grab my M8 when I saw how LT2 was the answer. Mind blown!

@Andreas-hp3se 10 месяцев назад

Same, i've been doing all kinds of other dumb shit before I knew about that pattern. Still doesn't fix how grainy the break sounds during regular playback though, even when at the correct pitch/tempo.

@aaronbrown2587 2 года назад

Psyched for the series. You're like the Mr Rogers of Breakbeat, and I love it.

:') that's the best compliment i've received in my entire youtube career thank you

DnB has always been a genre I've been in love with. I dabble occasionally, but seeing you has really made me want to get back into it. Definitely got yourself a new sub.

Thanks for uploading. Every M8 video I watch, I learn something new to try.

Part 2, please! Can't wait for part 11. Pre-ordered the M8 which should arrive who knows when. In the mean time, I'm an addict with no access to the goods. Please feed this addiction!

@sweepstakes 2 года назад

You might know already, but you can also use m8 headless by getting a teensy and connecting to a computer. People have used it on Steam decks this way.

@smoketoad 2 года назад

Perfect. I just ordered a teensy to make a headless version now I can follow along. Keep'm coming!

@soffter 2 года назад

Hell yeah!

@ibrajimenez2098 Год назад

Awesome. Thank you so much! I wonder how the m8 would pair with an octatrack. Thanks for the video!

hahah! forreal though, feels like my productivity has been kneecapped the past month or so 😬 What happens if they make DLC?

@spindlenine Год назад

Toward the end of the video, how did you get the shuffle on Phrase 22? Did you have to use a triplet groove or were you able to use the LFO position shuffle to find triplet-timed break offsets within the break itself?

@jimblybingus2566 2 года назад

bro where did you get that pad and those breaks? that is so beautiful

@ueberlicht_ 11 месяцев назад

I started again with Renoise and must say it´s my fav DAW by far now. Coming form Bitwig which is also dope but Renoise is the whole Matrix experience. A M8 for the pocket would be cool as i think polyend is kind of lame compared to M8 .

great deep dive! great job! keep it up! 👏

@landonh3535 Год назад

Hi were those chords and pads samples or did you make those on the M8 synths?

@soffter Год назад

They were pad samples ! From old 90’s sample cds, there’s tons over on archive . Org !!

@zolyosfx5500 2 года назад

Hello :) I have some questions... because recording stuff from the M8 is starting to drive me crazy (is this correct english?) How do you record properly the sound from the M8 ? (I'm sorry I am a total newbie for recording external hardware). I found a mini jack / jack that I plug into my external soundcard but the sound is quite average ... maybe the scarlet 2i2 is not powerful enough ? Is this a correct way to record anyway ? And then how tf do you mix the track in itself ? I managed to record something but it sounds quite bad since nothing is mixed. Are you mixing tracks in the m8 itself ? Can we separate every track in ableton kind of like the digitone (if you see what I mean) ? Well thanks a lot for your time, and thanks for your work really appreciate it :)

@soffter 2 года назад

Heya so - a few things - I would try to render stuff out on the M8 and then put it in a DAW, this'll usually result in higher audio quality files that generally sound better - the RENDER menu is in the project screen (up) and it'll allow you to render STEMS (every individual track) or you can render the whole song thru the limiter and fx and such. all the mixing can pretty much be done in the unit with the mixer / instrument volume & amp controls, so yeah - compose and arrange on the M8 and then render your song as either a stereo WAV or as individual stems for a DAW like Ableton or Logic hope that helps !

@rolasmola9641 2 года назад

Thanks for the primer! Just FYI, though, there is a really annoying high-pitched hum in your m8's audio. Not sure if it's coming from the m8 itself or whatever you are using to record it. I don't think it's the sample, as it seems to be present in the audio stream whether the m8 is playing or not.

@soffter 2 года назад

yeah it's killing me too, its because i recorded this one dumb and didn't pull the audio stream from the M8's usb, -.- my beta unit is a little finicky - it's gotten some serious use, i did my best to minimize it in the mix but! it's annoying as all hell, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ live n learn

@surganov 2 года назад

@@soffter I have the same hum problem when I connect M8 to external display and use audio jack out at the same time. People on M8 discord are having the same issue, looks like it's by design. My solution is to go all digital and use USB only. As for audio routing, you can try to use Loopback software to create aggregate device, this works pretty well if you want to route M8 to RME software playback channels and have some control over volume and be able to record it in Ableton at the same time.

@SvenFx-22 11 месяцев назад

I can get the loops anywhere I want? Walmart? Also you say you’re going to adjust your loops and then quickly adjust many settings without saying a word. That’s not a tutorial. Would have been nice for you to explain everything you were doing. All these supposed tutorials are really just watching people play with their gear. No teaching what it what
