@happyjessus 8 месяцев назад

I always enjoy it when you incorporate your drumming experience into your videos. Being a drummer myself, I find it very inspiring. With a groove like that, you just need a couple more elements and you have a beat that can shake a club. Btw, if you're not familiar with kink303 I recommend checking out his videos. He's another groove master I admire!

@LiamKillen 8 месяцев назад

@Vingul 13 дней назад

@@LiamKillen Cheers. By the way, if I may; do you have any suggestions for an alternative pedal to the Ghost for use with the Digitakt? I'm pretty new to this + I don't have the funds for that. I'm going to hold off for a while anyway, but if there's something for about... a third or a fourth of the price, that would be good. Used is fine.

Jo Liam, really nice this basic Digitakt Video. Still watching your content for months now. Love my TR-6S and got a used Digitakt now. It's amazing! But... I'm missing jamming with the master effects. Are there other classic effects devices which makes sense to the Digitakt? Any budget friendly? I wish to have the Roland master effects on it. 😅

@LiamKillen 5 месяцев назад

My favourite master FX machine hands down is the RMX-1000 - although it's not super budget friendly , I personally think it's worth the investment- here's a full video on how it works: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OwTLnQ9VmX0.htmlsi=0e2VCC047Z5kor3w

In your experience (talking to everybody here), from a live performance prospective would you go with a Digitakt or a tr8s? Talking modifying petterns on the fly and reallt play the drum machine

@LiamKillen Месяц назад

Def the TR-8S for that approach- PS: my Discord community might have a lot to say about it as well - here's an invite link ! discord.gg/xj8J2xJuBP

@djjohnny5166 4 месяца назад

And are these drums which you’re processing simply the ones that already come with the digitakt? … and do you offer private digitakt lessons or a course? Thanks again!

@LiamKillen 3 месяца назад

These are all samples that i've found elsewhere - you can sample any one shots with the Digitakt which is what I love about it. I'm def open to book a consultation in regards to a lesson with the Digitakt - here's more info on that incase you're interested: www.liamkillen.com/consultation

@ahzootube 8 месяцев назад

An improvement to digitakt would be about the sample selection. Instead of an aggregated sample list, I would like to have sample list per individual tracks. This would make it feel more like a drum machine. I also would not have to scroll through irrelevant sounds and a long list.

@LiamKillen 8 месяцев назад

Ohhh that would be interesting!

@StuartMawdsley 8 месяцев назад

The tactile nature and quick access to parameters has always attracted me to the DT but can I justify the cost? The buttons really add to the overall feel of the instrument, but that's not my primary concern. What alternative options do I have for a similar less menu divey sequencer with as much or similar parameters to each sound? I have an MPC but it's super 'extra' on the steps to get to the point youd get on a DT in 5 mins.

@LiamKillen 8 месяцев назад

The TR-8S might be up your alley

@StuartMawdsley 8 месяцев назад

@LiamKillen Thanks! I'll give it another look. 😄

@FluxFreeman 5 месяцев назад

I’ve been trying to decide between this and the MPC. I don’t know what to do. I’d like to create IDM or some derivative

@LiamKillen 5 месяцев назад

Get the Digitakt 😏

@robistocco 6 месяцев назад

Last step would be to program modulation in DT via MIDI, to apply the FX you want in the amount you want exactly when you want. that ghost pedal has been in my wish list for a while...

Are you ever worried about the mono downgrade? I've just bought mine yesterday and I'm very carefuly picking my mon samples. :D It'd be great to know how to downgrades.

@LiamKillen 8 месяцев назад

I don’t mind because the output is stereo so any FX you add to drums will be stereoized

@emilianoibarra3537 3 месяца назад

if samples are degraded to mono, can you use the drum synth engines on stereo?

@LiamKillen 3 месяца назад

I think you're mixing up the Digitakt with the Syntakt ! The overall mix is stereo though, so if you add delay / reverb / panning to any of your samples that will all come out in stereo.

@emilianoibarra3537 3 месяца назад

@@LiamKillen i was very mistaken, im still learning about these things in general, i thought since they were degraded to mono they would come out as mono, thank you so much!

@gatorgoforth3097 6 месяцев назад

Maybe they will make an optional firmware update for ghost so the dry stays 100% until you pass 12oclock. Hit them up and ask for it! I have some reverb pedals that do it and it’s sooo good for hardware jams and performances.

@LiamKillen 6 месяцев назад

Oh yeah that would be a great update you're right.

@remyvegamedia 8 месяцев назад

This groove is nastyyyy! I think the whole internet is trying to brainwash me to buy a Digitakt 😁 Haha. I don't really need it, but it looks so fuuuuuun. Might need to try and make a Drum Rack template to mimic the DT (which is probably pretty impossible haha). I make a lot of neo-soul and West Coast G-funk beats, but I've been taking a lot of notes from "IDM," techno, and house lately. 📜✍🏼 Thanks for the video!

@finctank 8 месяцев назад

Why would you need stereo samples? You can add space with panning and other effects, I’m willing to bet you couldn’t even tell the difference in a mix. Full stereo workflow is overrated imo

@vagueversatile 8 месяцев назад

You can have stereo by using 2 tracks. Separate your stereo file in 2 mono and download it in 2 DT tracks
