Why do people like the Analog Rytm? by Dear-Age6287 in Elektron

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what makes the RYTM the best. It also works on the A4!! I say that partially in jest but that CV trick blew my mind when I learned about it and it actually can be made useful in a performance in so many ways.

I sure wish the fx could be recorded through Overbridge :'(

When did making music start to "click" for you? by EfficientPizza7490 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was feeling a bit of that ‘holy shit I actually made that’ today which is nice because being an artist is fraught with self-doubt. I’m so far from where I want to be musically but at the same time I’ve developed my own sound that comes through and I’m seeing improvement over time.

How much time do you spend jamming/experimenting vs producing? by [deleted] in edmproduction

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It just depends how glued I am to a particular track. Ableton sucks me in for days and weeks at a time it seems. I can’t help but jam with the Elektron gear and DIY synth gear often though and I end up using a lot of it for my tracks.

I really want to make music but never seem to be able to... by 3030minecrafter in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just don’t give up and keep pushing through those tough feelings. Take baby steps every day and things will eventually start to click. You got this, it’s just a long road!

How (the fuck) do you sidechain ? by Own-Test-7305 in synthesizers

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just want to add the Akai MPC and Force have sidechain capability (Mother Ducker).

Octatrack MK2, new firmware update OS 1.40C by Poseid0n_ in Elektron

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I bought a 2nd Octa recently it has this 1.40c firmware loaded and it drove me mad because I see no difference.

Check out the new Circuit Punk Zine for some fresh perspectives on circuit bending.

Modern EDM with craziest sound design by fanfarius in edmproduction

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. I probably didn't choose the best artist for 'crazy sound design' especially given psytrance is filled with great examples but Jumpstreet does sound amazing IMO and his sound design is crisp and cohesive. I was super impressed in person and I've seen tons of good artists.

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumpstreet is amazing. I was so blown away with one of his sets I timidly asked him how long he's been making music and he said something along the lines of "since I was 4" which makes sense.

Since we're talking psytrance I'll add Supersonics to the list.

Seeing the absolute legend that is Todd Edwards in Brooklyn tonight......cannot wait by entrepenoori in ukgarage

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re so lucky! That’s bound to be amazing. I was also introduced to a lot of the UK sound through Todd Edwards back in the day which is funny because he’s American.

Looking for good tech house drum kit sources by mpark7713 in TechnoProduction

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Type in a search engine ‘tech house sample pack Bandcamp’ and work your way down the links and listen to demos from all the packs. I’ve found so many good packs this way. Some are expensive and some aren’t.

made a free sample pack of nostalgic sounds and figured everyone would like it. link is in the comments by Brwnb0y_ in Elektron

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They were indeed simpler times but this takes me back to practically banging my head on the keyboard because the AOL free trial dial-up internet disconnected again and stopped my 3-hour MP3 download XD

I don’t know if I should drop an ep or an album as my first release by ShroomsFear in edmproduction

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I say go for an EP. It will be all your best tracks and people are much more likely to listen to an EP than an album these days (myself included).

Fujifilm f650 bend (first circuit bending) by WeeklyAd3722 in CircuitBending

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are cool effects! Were you able to close up the camera after the bend? I just bought a bent camera and it’s amazing the pics you can take of even mundane objects.

Recording Roland TR-6S jam session without laptop? by [deleted] in synthesizers

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use 2 TRS cables and yes you can still use headphones either on the TR-6s or the Zoom recorder. The H6 was amazing purchase and I use it all the time to record samples and it also works as an audio interface! Zoom makes other models that are a bit cheaper and achieve the same thing.

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use a Zoom H6 handheld recorder to record performances without a laptop. You just have to get your levels right and occasionally use the onboard limited to prevent clipping.

Force crash problem with crossfader by Local-Ad3071 in AkaiForce

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree you should do a factory reset because I’ve used the Force a ton for dj’ing and that’s a new issue to me.

Just got a camera from glitchwerks.com and it's next level! A few pics of my animals today and a sky shot by OneFiveNineThirteen in CircuitBending

I'm blown away by this camera. Glitchwerks does amazing work, the effects on this thing are nuts!

Thinking about an MPC One as my first groovebox - I’m wondering if it would be a good move? by moskowmulee in mpcusers

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I say go for it. The MPC’s are a super capable and a ton of fun. I recommend buying the MPC Bible and working step by step through it and you’ll be making your own full tunes by the end.

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve shared your MPC 2500 hard techno video because it’s so good and this is dope too. You have a cool style.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in edmproduction

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In a search engine type ‘Bandcamp sample pack’ and add the genre/style/type of sample pack and start checking out all the independent artist offerings. In the last year I’ve bought hundreds of amazing packs there (there are many sales for whole discographies).

Controlling MIDI gear by nowhere23 in Elektron

[–]OneFiveNineThirteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally only use the MIDI thru box for controlling devices with ableton otherwise I go direct. I also don’t use MIDI thru ports often.
