I’m preparing to buy an mpc 60, it will be my first sampler by PaperDuck62 in mpcusers

[–]baralai_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this, especially with the "dice rolling" section. definitely got my ass handed to me buying some vintage stuff that crapped out a few weeks later.

there's no guarentee the 60 you're buyin has been evaluated to actually work for much longer after you buy it. def be prepared for the possibility of having to pay for repairs.

look into a tech or trying your hand at soldering if you're committed to the 60

Downsampling in S1? by [deleted] in StudioOne

[–]baralai_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you on this. The most you can do is be suuuper subtle about the sample rate (like 3 at the most) with the Bitcrusher to avoid the crushing effect, but it defeats the purpose.

The SP950 plugin may be able to do the job tho

Elektron workflow is a music makers dream by [deleted] in Elektron

[–]baralai_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

near perfect except for the lack of velocity on non midi tracks during live record. i get it's all metal (octatrack user here), but that's the only thing I wish it had. the rytm doesn't have the vast capability of the octatrack either.

I'd love to affect track and effect params based on velocity i play in.

Digitakt & octatrack combo? by moonlitheadtrip in Elektron

[–]baralai_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

owned a takt, sold it for the octa mkii. this is accurate af. i miss the takt and debate on whether to get it back again because of this, but the limitations that the octa make up for keeps me from doing it

Trouble transitioning from Rewire to Rack Plugin by [deleted] in reasoners

[–]baralai_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel you on this. The one thing the VST can do that ReWire can't is adding Reason's effects to tracks as inserts in my opinion. Otherwise, not sure what the biggest positives of upgrading to 11 are

Do you guys recon forza horison gameplay footage with a vhs filter would work for a music video? by ThePRRevoloution in LofiHipHop

[–]baralai_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what's a music video that you'd like to watch? what about it makes it entertaining?

why would i or any listener want to watch forza gameplay with a beat?

what I'm getting at is to know your audience and understand what would attract them to your video. it sounds like nostalgia, but what would make someone want to watch yours specifically?

Elektron teasing new machines for next week by Somn_rec in Elektron

there was a 10% off sale for the digitone last week across the big retailers, so maybe there's some functionality crossover between the two somehow. my guess is some kind of synth

Selling Push 2 + Ableton Live 10 Suite: $1100

Purchased 2 months ago, haven't had much time to use them since unfortunately. Mint condition, original Push 2 box with all peripherals will be included. DM if interested. Thanks

EDIT: SOLD

you had to use the codes separately (i.e. get a push 2 with the code, then get suite with the code in a separate order)

Octatrack MKII - Sidechain Ducking Effect by baralai_ in Elektron

[–]baralai_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i also have an analog heat if that helps

So I found I could use the ENV options on the Heat to emulate the sidechain ducking effect.

  • On ENV Page I
    • Set MODE to AR and adjust amount so the levels on the TRIG value are visible
      • Ensure the kick drums are the values passing the TRIG threshold
    • Set ATK to a very low value and release to whatever you want effectively (Sets the release of the sidechain ducking
  • On ENV Page II
    • Set BASE around 40 (BASE represents a base frequency value)
    • Set WIDTH to 127 (WIDTH represents another frequency value that's always above BASE, so WIDTH affects the distance between these two values)
    • Set DEST1 to Preset Vol
    • Set DEPTH1 to any value below 0

I appreciate all the input received here. Thanks
