@@halidex the thing is, He's been using elektron gear for years and years and he works with elektron on developing new products... so even his first time touching the digitakt or any other elektron device he's gonna have yeras of a headstart over anyone else....
hahahah nice one... makes me want to start hunting... and get a bunch of video game samples...got 2 8-bit synths to sample into this bad boy when it finally shows up
Since I got my digitakt, I at least have some grasp on what he's doing here.... but theres still that 5% wizardry, where suddenly I have no fucking idea whats going on and it sounds amazing lol
Got mine on Saturday. Made a bunch of tracks and loops so far. Damn thing is a box of delights. Cenk, the last line of the Digitakt manual should read "Now go watch a Dataline vid to see what all this stuff actually means". I've learnt about 19 different cool things to do! Thanks so much for the vid!!!
i'm convinced too now! dataline, could you pls make a vid about to use it like a synth with sampling waveforms, you showed that first to Nick at NAMM or so.. it really sounds more than a synthesizer than a sampler, congratz elektron, you nailed it!
The way you connect with these Elektron machines is downright scary at times. (Even the ones with displays that are too small to read) Can you prove you are not an Elektron android AI side project they are working on covertly? Awesome work as usual.
Nacht Schreck Great post! There was clearly too much positivity and support of fellow musicians happening here. Glad you could step in with some much needed negativity to bring the mood down.
Aight, I'm just fucking getting one - deliberations are over. If I can make shit like this on a Digitakt then I need it immediately. I love my Model:Samples, but tried getting into electric guitar - bought tons of new stuff, and don't enjoy it, so it's all getting sold and I'm getting a nice upgrade to the limited Samples groovebox. I already have all the good samples to stick into it, so I'm sold.
After reading your comment I’m curious. Did you do it and was it worth it? I ask cause I’m in a similar situation, getting rid of all my gear for a Digitakt. Thanks
surprisingly, the sound/loops sound more bigbeat than the drum samples (esp the kicks sound weak) // fantastic performance btw, looks like your hands move faster than time itself
I sold my Analog Rytm to afford this. While I do like the analog sound, the workflow on the Digitakt is what I really love. I hope Elektron keeps releasing boxes this cool. Not having midi output on the Rytm was a huge mistake, Imo.
Oh boy...some next level stuff right here. Would you be able to demonstrate how this machine can sequence external midi gear? Thank you for all your videos!
What you have to take into consideration is could you make it sound like this? I mean I could watch Hendrix ‘demo’ his Strat but if I bought one I might decide it didn’t work properly 😂
The best sounding machines...but i think its hard to learn how to use;maybe its the price to pay,i dont know.Maybe its easier than its seems to be....BUT,Elektron does the best souding machines...
2:40 hold up you can parameter lock more that one trigger at the same time??!! I need more fingers...maybe a ruler with a little handle on it...maybe I just lay my left forearm across it...
Nihar Savala Can you just build yourself one and quit relying on these over priced, well built, complex machines and then build and sell them to us poor people? Thanks in advance and let me know where I can order it. Just buy used or buy used older gear. You can sound as good if you know how to use a decent groove type machine. There are a lot of them and if you have an ipad your already holding one. Just get the right app. Figure is pretty good though you can’t use your own samples you can make great grooves w/out a clue as to how to keep a beat. Just look around you. You Can Do It! Hehehehe.
Fantastic! Is the bass really that deep on this machine? I once owned a machinedrum which imo, sounded thin but that's probably my lack of programming/tweaking skills. This thing sounds beastly! I see the Analog Heat off to the right and I thought maybe it's adding beef to the sound but it looks like it isn't even turned on. Or maybe it's the quality of the samples?
Possibly done by increasing the attack time of the amp envelope on the synth sample. It sounds like its ducking when really its just a bit quieter at the start of each synth hit
