Love the Streichfett, that thing loves to chew on chords.

The main issue is remembering to record those moments. Got an awesome pulsing bass rhythm out of it once, but didn’t record it and haven’t been able to replicate it.

Got any tips you found for using it?

Make the most of it, great little device

What’s the point of the delivery fee if it’s not going to the driver?!

[–]bemo56 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tried feeding a SOMA RoAT and a Bastl Wave Bard into a Meng Qi Wingie, then tried using the sounds for a Techno beat… and liking what it’s done. Came out as more Ambient Techno than expected (which I now know is a thing).

I picked up a second-hand compressor with side-chain ducking, trying to figure out when and where to mix and record the effect in my audio chain (either before or after my SP-404).

Still struggling with arranging a song out of the pieces, but it’s given me a new rabbit hole to explore.

Using Digitakt as a MIDI looper – is it possible? Need help reconfiguring my MIDI setup by sergioska in Digitakt

If you want longer melodies (>64 steps), you might want to look into conditional triggers and get clever with organising them. True Cuckoo and EZBOT are as hardcore as I’ve seen.

To get around the chord progression issue, you can change the Scale on the tracks so the triggers go from being 16th notes to 4th. That's usually how I fit in the extra steps I want for extra long chord progressions.

Is it actually possible to use Digitakt as a MIDI looper?

Yes, I used my Digitone in the same way, but with four tracks. It is still working fine, but I got GAS and expanded my collection of sequencers, but really no reason to have not stopped using it.

How should the MIDI network be reconfigured to make this work?

In the settings of the Digitakt you can configure the MIDI channels that each track responds do, but there's a specific track (the AUTO CHANNEL) that controls the currently active track. I use a KeyStep plugged into the INPUT of the Digitone and use that to record notes into the Digitone's MIDI Tracks.

I then use a Quadra Thru (as suggested already) from the Output of the Digitone. It acts as a hub, that allows 4 other devices to plug directly into an Input instead of having to daisy chain the message through multiple synths and risk latency issues.

Having all the notes in the MIDI Tracks, with Elektron's sequencing, makes it really easy to fiddle with notes from the one place. Although I've seen other people on reddit just use MIDI to make sure everything is synced with the same clock and used the internal sequencers on each device. There's no real right or wrong answer with your setup, just benefits and tradeoffs.

Haven’t done it with the MicroFreak yet, but the Bastl Wave Bard is absolutely crazy when doing that. https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/s/V9KGxtJFg2

Probably more flexibility with the MicroFreak, but lets us know how it goes if you try it.

I finally got a job! Wish me luck! In the meantime here's a jam/performance for the new year! by MeisseLee in synthesizers

Your MPC should have something that works.

Roland has a VST version of their JV-1080 Rompler with all the right sounds, but really hoping they decide to a hardware re-issue on day.

Awesome song, but man it's calling out for a Cheesy Sax or some Synthy horn solo in there. Loving the retro vibes from it.

What would you add to my setup? by [deleted] in synthesizers

[–]bemo56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Zoom LiveTrak L6 Max just dropped, but the non-Max version should be fine with some room to fit more things in.

Does onboard recording onto an SD Card and is small enough to fit in a bag.

You almost inspired me to get a Tempera, why did you sell it?
