Good shit. Does the Octa sounds good. Lots of mix takes on this question. Does it sound EXACTLY like what you’re sampling ? Or does it color or lose some sonic integrity?
You deactivated sources abcd by pressing the trig and the corresponding buttons but couldn’t you just or also turn them down with the rotary’s? Many thanks (big fan)
Great stuff! I have one question though: I did exactly like you did Mathew, but when I checked the resampled bit it was quieter than the original volume. I can't figure out why! You had the same thing at 2:55 when you listen to the resampled bit, but then at 4:20 when you make a transition with the fader, the volume is identical to the original! I solved it by assigning T8 in SCR3 because it's my master track and the volume of the resampled bit was identical. But if I assign MAIN in SCR3 - the volume is quieter... What am I doing wrong?
Hey EZBOT! First and foremost thank you for all the information you’ve helped the community with. I’ve noticed when doing this, I’m having to set the volume of my resample track to about 62 to get the same output as the main output. I have compressor and dark reverb on the master. Have tried both T8 and main but still getting attenuation along with some artifacts. It does not sound as clean as yours. Any info/tips would be greatly appreciated
Hey! Yeah this tutorial works but it’s less relevant than my newer ones. Look at the advanced DJ fx tutorial. It will help you with this. It’s all about gain staging which is not really covered here
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your knowledge. One thing though I cannot grasp my head around (although following step by step your method), is the result resampled track is always lower in volume. Started a fresh/new project just in case but to no avail... I am on 1.40A. No level/master/gain changed.
@@EZBOT_ Thank you so very much for your help. This is very much appreciated. I know you have been "hammering" about 127 as unity gain for tracks in another video... Your tutorials are being VERY helpful as I am new to the OT. Have a DT but this beast (OT) is DEEP.
Thanks for this, good explaination. So it is possible to have one live input from an external synth onto track 1 ( and why not - on track 2 and 3) and basically do the same instead of using samples on track 1,2,3 as in your presentation, correct?
Absolutely, and that is the way I like to do it. This was just an explanation for remixing within the OT. But you can apply all these principles to external gear. It's no different
Thanks for the video! One question at min 4:29: When I slide to my resampled scene it is a little bit quieter. Why is that? And one further thing is if I arm the recording with TRACK + yes it immediately disarms again.
excellent videos you produve for us, thank you a lot. Now I really want to learn the Octatrack and spend time with it. I haven't seen all your videos yet, but would really appreciate your view on sound levels
All Track Volumes at 127 for THRU and FLEX for doing input recording/resampling, amp volumes can be adjusted. Just know that when you don't match volumes on tracks you create attenuation. So volumes might jump.
wow thanks!! that's exactly what i've been searching and it helps me a lot!! very useful to make some random fills! i guess thats the one of a kind functionality of the octratrack.. never saw this in other gear!
This video is truly helpful and your presentation style is right to the point with explanations as needed. This is how tutorials/tips-n-tricks should be. Thank you do much for this since I just unpacked my OT a few days ago and was wondering the best way to use the resampling/remixing! Subscribed.
Nice one! Thnx! How do you reset your flex track so any new resample will be looped in its original value. So if you have made all changes like tricks, effects, LFO and stuff it will all be reset to just the new recorded sample so you can start over :-)
