"Heligan" Live Track - Prophet Rev2 - Roland SE-02 - Rytm MKII - Analog Heat +FX
I traded some kit for the Roland SE-02 as I really wanted a very capable bass synth and got the credit card out for the the Analog Heat +FX. This is my first effort with what will be my main setup now. I worked really hard to get all this together and I'm really happy with everything. The Heat +FX is expensive but amazing, I already know I'll never sell it. Hope you like it.

I'm slowly trying to learn the Oxi One and this track came from me playing around with the Arpeggiator on a nice progression I worked out. This same progression is played as a pad with a lovely vocal preset in the Lemondrop. The main synth sound is all triangles dirtied up through the Volante with a high Rec/Mechanical and Wear Level and a touch of ghost reverb from the Empress. All recorded an...

Another track I've been working on. This came out of some noodling on my Rev2. I recorded three mono midi tracks into the Oxi One and put the Rev2 audio through a Glitch Delay in the Line 6 HX One - it's very nice a gives some Chase Bliss type happy accidents. This is in turn into the Volante and then Empress (lovely). I was going for a glitchy feel with Foley Samples overlaid on the Rytm. All ...

Hi there, another Syntakt track to get things going again. I love this box as I can do a whole track on it and take it anywhere. This track shows off the analog synth ability quite nicely especially toward the second half of the track 😉 The structure feels slightly different but seemed to work, any thoughts?

Second video of a new track using all my favourite gear. The core of the Track is the Prophet Rev2 (sequenced by digitone) with nice effects from Strymon Volante and Death by Audio Rooms. Elektron Rytm for the drums and Analog Four for Bass and a rhythmic arp. It's all mixed into the Octatrack which I use for some effects using Ezbot's performance template 🙂

My first ever performance video of a song I wrote using my Elektron Analogs. The is structured in song mode on the Rytm so I can concentrate on using performance mode on the A4. The outputs from the boxes are recorded into Ableton. There is a little sidechain compression on the synth track and I added a bit of saturation and glue compression on the master channel.

    Cool Jam! How do you like the OXI sequencer? I recently got the Torso T1 and I'm wondering if it's worth having 2 sequencers or not.

    • @likethetoffee
      @likethetoffee Місяць тому

      Hiya thanks, I really like the Oxi but I've no experience of the Torso (seems very interesting though). It has enough tracks for me and there was a small learning curve. I really like the Elektron sequencer and it feels familiar in a lot of ways to this for me. I use it for all melodic sequencing and use the Rytms own sequencer for the rhythmic side. It is extremely well built and high quality and I like being able to use it with my iPad, pc and synths and it's very portable. I had the hapax which I also really liked and it was super powerful but it was more than I needed and Oxi won 🙂

    Very nice piece. Do you struggle with the AR pads? I find that I have to tap them hard with two fingers on each press otherwise it won’t register unless I tap really hard and dead center of pad. This is on FIX mode, pressure sensitive mode is a disaster. Oddly, when on mute mode it responds perfectly almost to touch.

    • @likethetoffee
      @likethetoffee 3 місяці тому

      My experience is very much the same, I used to do quite a bit of finger drumming on the Push 2, the small pads were a challenge but they felt really good. Then I got the Rytm and they are so stiff. I now will tend to record a pattern both live with the pads, one sound at a time, and sequenced and then just play this back and mute as you see me in the videos (no issues with the mute mode sensitivity)The Rytm is not good for finger drumming. I also tried them with the performance mode and found the same issue, you need to push hard... Having said that I will never sell my Rytm unless Elektron replace it with another combination drum machine/sampler as I love the sound.

    I was torn between the Oxi One and the Torso T-1 and ultimately went with the Torso T-1 as a sequencer. Definitely not as pretty as the OXI One. Does the Oxi do euclidean sequencing with pitch or just rhythms?

    • @likethetoffee
      @likethetoffee 3 місяці тому

      Hi, no the Oxi is in charge of the melodic parts sequencing the two synths. I've not tried the Rytm with the Oxi as I've found external sequencers don't work with the mute function/pads on the Rytm and I prefer using them directly. Also the Rytm sequencing is very very capable and easier with p'locks etc... The synths need a good sequencer though! 🙂

      I like the analog four most of all. The syntakt analog synths are very nice but quirky and definitely ‘tighter’ than the turn. The digital synths tone and swarm are decent enough but not as much control as with digitone. The effects digi synths are very good e.g toys for perc type sounds.

It’s great for creating ideas and then porting them to a midi channel to use on another synth. The octatrack is an odd beast. It’s showing it’s age I think but it can do so many things!
