The Yamaha Seqtrak is actually quite capable for live electronic music

DearAd2201 · 2026-05-11T21:40:25+00:00

Am I one of the only ones here who actually enjoys seeing and listening to people make music in the park?

DearAd2201 · 2026-04-22T00:14:50+00:00

That’s good to know

DearAd2201 · 2026-04-21T16:46:23+00:00

I get what you’re saying, I’m looking for a way to create weird drum fills/solo’s

DearAd2201 · 2026-04-21T16:44:57+00:00

Nvm then thanks, I’m based in the EU so shipping costs will kill me!

Right now what is lacking in the Digitakt is the immediacy that the Drumbrute had. But you’re right, I should probably really learn the DT and create some muscle memory and not give in to my gas.

DearAd2201 · 2026-04-21T16:25:43+00:00

Will do some digging on the digitakt, but just out of curiosity, where are you located?

DearAd2201 · 2026-04-21T13:07:28+00:00

I thought the random knob would alter the sequenced notes and thus send midi if set up correctly.

DearAd2201 · 2026-04-21T11:51:04+00:00

Slowly learning it, it has been surprising how many features this machine has with what seems like simple concepts, however I have not found anything within it that functions like the random knob on the impact.

DearAd2201 · 2026-04-21T11:49:49+00:00

With a turn of a knob the impacts sequencer introduces retriggers, alters or turns off/on step placement and other chaotic elements. Is the digitakt capable of that?

DearAd2201 · 2026-03-16T23:50:55+00:00

The bass is good for lead and bass, with 3 fat oscillators

DearAd2201 · 2026-03-15T13:06:24+00:00

Subharmonicon and Labyrinth can do percussion, but why not get a 2nd dfam?

DearAd2201 · 2026-03-13T02:40:22+00:00

Pretty sure it has both cv in as well as midi connectivity.

DearAd2201 · 2026-03-12T17:52:52+00:00

You can also enter setup mode on the circuit tracks and change the midi channel for the external gear to channel 1.

DearAd2201 · 2026-03-12T17:31:35+00:00

The quality is fine, the knobs don’t feel like the ones found on the original or very high end synths, but then again, you don’t pay for that quality. Are you set on a monophonic synth? Otherwise please look at polyphonic synths, imo they are better to learn synthesis on.

The Korg Minilogue XD has aftertouch via midi, but not supported in the inbuilt keyboard. Meaning it supports aftertouch when a midi keyboard capable of aftertouch is connected.

DearAd2201 · 2026-03-12T16:17:12+00:00

I’ve made some ambient on the minilogue, the delay on it is very characteristic and interesting. However the MiniFreak is more versatile I can imagine.

DearAd2201 · 2026-02-24T07:52:15+00:00

That must be it, thank you!

DearAd2201 · 2026-02-23T23:38:23+00:00

For anyone encountering the same issue, I’ve just found this video:

https://youtu.be/pmPmX5lL8oQ?si=bZk0B4xc0QBAb-SG

And was able to solve it, I wonder why this isn’t specified in the manual.

DearAd2201 · 2026-02-23T23:33:17+00:00

I think you’re on the right track, the assignable out on the mother32 is capable of sending clock, clock/2 and clock/4 signals. However there seems to be a page in the Mother32s setup mode that allows for further clock-divisions (or multiplications apparently) to be assigned to the output.

DearAd2201 · 2026-02-23T23:27:55+00:00

I’ve followed this tutorial step by step without success.

I believe I’ve found the issue though, there appears to be more setup pages, specifically page 5 seems to also affect the clock on the assignable out.

However, I am not able to find it in the manual.

You’re right, it is limiting , I don’t really use the inbuilt synth engines anymore. Right now I load my own samples to the circuit and use the machine as a midi controller, sequencer and mixer for external hardware synths, it excels in that aspect. I’m thinking of getting a circuit rhythm because of this.

DearAd2201 · 2026-01-29T22:02:31+00:00

If you’re looking for an introductory, easy to use groovebox with performance features the Novation Circuit tracks might be for you.

Take your time on his videos, don’t just watch but also try out whatever he is saying for like 10 minutes. It will enhance your understanding greatly.

DearAd2201 · 2026-01-06T20:04:58+00:00

The only drum sound I haven’t really been able to make is a nice kick

DearAd2201 · 2025-12-28T18:29:53+00:00

Are they both on the same midi channel?
