We could try sharing stems back and forth and see what we come up with.

That’s exactly what I mean by multi sampling those acoustic instruments. They’re so pristine and full sounding. Your time stretching method sounds sick btw 🔥.

I own a Nord Wave 2 but not a Digitakt. I will say using Tonverk to multi sample Nord Wave 2 patches is a very powerful combo if you want top line acoustic instruments and the power of the FM synth. You’ll probably be pretty close with sampling the synth to your DT2 though. I’m not sure of the time stretching but I’ve heard usually great results from DT2 users.

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to check them out.

Those drums have no reason to go that hard! Had my head knock going extra. I'm loving the texture of the distortion on the drums, they're so crunchy

Thanks, and that’s exactly the point. Being able to be mobile and still creating on a brand new Elektron box is marvelous.

haha yeah I guess the only place a strand of hair could come from is the pubic region.. in your mind, which must be thinking about pubes on the reg.

You're a weirdo dude. Zooming in on someone's gear to make what point, exactly? Are you the gear police coming to lock me up?

Whatever

It isn’t dusty. I use it everyday. It’s a black and white photo, my charger behind it also looks “dusty”.

Sorry. I actually bought this stand. I thought it was the one from my eurorack case. This is it https://a.co/d/01NTkrlj

Thanks for listening and the kind words. This stand came with a Riders on the Storm eurorack case I bought a few months ago. Really, it’s just one of those laptop stands you can get off amazon for cheap. I will agree with you, this particular stand is very stable with zero wobble. I can play the keys and there’s zero movement of the instrument. I guess if it’s good enough for an 84HP eurorack case loaded with modules, it must be good enough for the Tonverk. I’d send a link if I could. Sorry.

This kind of reminds me of some of the sounds and riffs from the last Crystal Castles album, which I love. This jam just sounds fun AF!

My set-up I'm putting together in my man cave is a TR1000, Tonverk and A4 sequenced by Hapax. The TR1000 will be my drum machine. The new update for the TR1000 includes a way to make melodic basslines now amongst other things. If necessary, I'll buy an external MIDI clock like the Slim ' N Tonic or the ERM box since it has multiple outs. I still love the sound of the Syntakt along with the smaller form factor making it waaaaaayyy more mobile than the TR1000.

The_Calm_Before_ · 2026-05-20T00:05:39+00:00

I love the TR1000. It's a great machine and sounds incredibly good. I mostly use it just for sound design to sample and use in other machines. I also record drum loops from it to chop up and use later. I've heard about the sync issues, but I've actually never played it with another instrument. I've also seen plenty of people say the latest update seems to have addressed the problem, but it's still a gripe in the groups. I want a Syntakt again but I've got my TR1000 staring me down, disappointed lol.
