attention operators. here is a new, super useful free update for your TX-6 field mixer. we've just added live beat tracking for any incoming audio signal. this means TX-6 can now act as a sync box, listening to any audio input, it can generate a click track based on the external tempo, as well as send sync out over midi and bluetooth - all in real time! here's svante from the dev team showing us how it's done.

@alex-r-t Год назад

I wonder how long it takes for it to pick up bpm changes. I could see this being really useful for live performances with other instruments - letting the drummer set the tempo, then having the TX-6 automatically adjust the clock to whatever synths are hooked up to it.

@teenageengineering Год назад

exactly. this is a perfect example of a use case. we're wishing you a high confidence meter! results may vary so we'd love to get your feedback from various real live situations. please keep us posted if improvements are needed.

@TheNamrebug Год назад

Does the new update also detect chord changes etc or was that prerecorded into the OP-Z to match the song chord changes? Thanks!

@alex-r-t Год назад

@@TheNamrebug I think this feature is specifically for tempo, but that's a neat idea for a future update! Have the TX-6 detect the key and send that over USB to the OP-Z Master/Transpose track alongside the bpm.

@teenageengineering Год назад

thanks for asking. beat tracking is for tempo sync only. the chord changes in the video are not programmed. they could be of course, but in the video, svante is selecting the master track and transposing the OP-Z on the fly. this is trickier but also allows for more flexibility.

@divorcecourtt 4 месяца назад

Why is this remix so good though.

@mairinger80 Год назад

Would be great to have a demo with a real live drumkit… oh, and what is the track assist tapping doing? Helping the app to identify the downbeats?

@bluebaconjake405 Год назад

Probably helps the TX-6 keep up with funky or not so obvious beats. But by the looks of it, if your audio input has clear kickdrums or snares it should be fine

@davidkain3555 Год назад

What about spatial audio panning as an update? You have 6 channels, add some internal auto random panning LFO, with intelligent inverting, to the five channel; besides the drum track. Would be heaven.

@JohnSAitken 5 месяцев назад

Second entry. The audio coming from the old portable Cassette is not coming from it. The signal is way to clean. What I know about old tape transport tells me this. A machine of this age would be subject to WOW & Flutter. Most probably the Pinch Roller would be saturated with tape residue to the point it can’t be remove. Also the Pinch Bar would most probably be bent which would cause the tape to slide up and down on it which would cause the audio to be distorted.

Assuming it’s in good condition, old walkmans have pretty good wow and flutter results, I have a 70s reel to reel that measures 0.12%.

First “Walkman” is a brand name. I don’t understand how you can suggest that the “second part of my statement in based on assumption”. Think about it! The audio that is being reproduced is way to clean for a device such as is being used. It’s only to easy to convert this Toy into a MP3 player, which I’m “assuming”🥸 it has.
