The TX-6 from TE looks REALLY cool, but I couldn't bring myself to buy it because of some gear I already have...

Unfortunately the price for high quality design and materials is not linear. I agree that it’s definitely something that if you need it for a very specific use case, it’s incredible. I think it gets so much hate because secretly we all want one 😂

@88Fitzy88 2 года назад

Love that idea! When I saw the TX-6 price I decided to instead buy two small passive 4 channel mixers into each input of my circuit tracks and then I ran that output into my OP-1.. I think it’ll work pretty well!

Thank you for another great video. I am deciding if to buy the circuit tracks or the rhythm. Do you know if I'd be able to sequence other synths with rhythm like you showed in this video or is it possible just with tracks? Thanks!

@briannhinton 2 года назад

Such a great video. Thanks for not joining the crowd.

@Taetro 2 года назад

has nothing to do with "joining the crowd". if a person wants a piece of gear, literally no justification is necessary. might still buy this if I feel like it. however, if for some the gear is out of their budget, there are usually alternatives.

@quinnsd13 2 года назад

I 100% agree. I LOVE their designs and functions, just can't justify the price. I love the accessibility/price of the PO's but the rest of their lineup will most assuredly remain a dream. (Maybe if I win a lotto I never play?) I am looking for suggestions on recording on-the-go, that Portacapture looks like a great option. Does anyone have any suggestions of something similar but maybe more of an entry-friendly price range? (Or is the Tascam worth skipping other cheaper options and just save up for it instead?)

@kclique67 2 года назад

Hi you have the bluebox from 1010music which can be a good alternative at a lowerprice

@LucasKamei 2 года назад

i legit have a portable recorder, a microfreak and a circuit already lmao. I guess I don't need to spend any money at all.

@enemoy2650 2 года назад

I mean the bluebox does exist... It comes with a port for midi-capabilities, can record, is small, has a slot for SD-Cards and EQ.Only the effects are crap, but you can use the outputs as sends... Don't know what the TE mixer can do better (especially live) except function as an audio interface. Even has midi. But maybe I am missing something

@Imetalman2000 2 года назад

The bluebox is a pain in the ass to use and it’s more of a multi-track recorder then a mixer. The tx6 functions like a true mixer and I would argue works better then most conventional mixers.

@BeatsAndGuitars 2 года назад

Great video and these are great options. The only thing these options can’t necessarily do is tie in with the OP-1 specifically…Teenage Engineering is building a ecosystem with the “Field” marketing. I imagine the TX-6 will really open up functionality when it’s paired with the new op1. I guess we will see.

@Taetro 2 года назад

what functionality does the TX-6 have when paired with the OP-1? what is the difference between pairing the OP-1 with any other mixer?

@albertwingz 2 года назад

I use circuit tracks with my Synth keyboard combo setup as same way that you do in video, is a nice gear to sequence with synth OR use keyboard midi out to midi in play onboard circuit tracks sound like pad, to make it more sound combination with my keyboard.

I think the TX inputs are stereo which 2xs the actual count compared to these options, but I still totally agree that folks don't need the TX

@Taetro 2 года назад

…I don’t consider stereo inputs to be doubling the input count 🤷‍♂️. also my point is not what people need, my point is there are alternatives if one can’t afford. We can’t prescribe peoples needs for them.

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

Super fair, always appreciate your insight and thoughts

@Imetalman2000 2 года назад

The tx6 is a very slick utility and it helps me get allot of miles out of the gear I already have. I now have a box of gear that is going to the pawnshop. This device not only streamline workflow it frees up allot of space in my backpack and desk.

@guido69x 5 месяцев назад

Its a High End Micro Mixer,it does the same or even more then most of the big mixers on the same price range!We gotta to have in mind the size of it and craftsmanship to put all those components in such a tinny space!One you can put on your tinny pocket of your trousers pocket,the other one is a brick bigger than a phone!Its all about having all the Pro features on a very tinny device without sacrificing the portability of it and still having an intuitive overlay design.

@Taetro 2 года назад

It’s TE’s decision on pricing for their products. What it’s “worth” is relative to each individual. It’s likely not your fault if you’re “poor” but more likely a factor of systemic oppression in late stage capitalism. Be mad at the right person. (Low paying employers, legislators, etc)

Wow i thought so nice of them to include an op1 with the tx6. Nice price. Wow i thought, that new op1 field must come with that sexy tx6 bundeled. Nah its stereo now. Double sound double price. Makes sense right? Still under 2000 stop complaining. Went to superbooth berlin on saturday. wanted to know about their price philosophy. And if the field can take some rain and dust. Ip class? They busted. Everybody seemed mad at them, maybe they couldńt take the bashing anymore. Maybe setup a flagshipstore next to apple.

@skawanagi Год назад

Novation Circuit Tracks hums and makes terrible noises as soon as I plug external audio in device powered from mains (5V adapter). Battery powered devices are fine. So not recommended as a mixer, unless you can solve the hum and buzz 50-60 Hz signals

@smacksalad 2 года назад

"Need" is the thing. Most of the complaining appears to be based around a feeling of needing to have this, and the price being an issue. No one 'needs' anything by TE, and there are plenty of other options available, and with that in mind, the price TE stuff suddenly becomes a complete non issue. Ultimately, the complaining seems to be from people who are going to buy TE regardless of the price, and there is a real simple solution to that. Strange that such a creative scene is way less than creative in its approach to using kit.

@Taetro 2 года назад

I agree. People (especially music tech enthusiasts who live in forums) also like to join a mob. they may not need or want it but will take every chance they get to let their anger our online. Helps them feel superior.
