My Smallest Dawless Setup // Live Performance workflow
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Recently did a live set for Meris on their Instagram (@meris.US) And it was a suuuuper simple setup.. i think.. So it revolved heavily around the Octatrack MKII of course, but i played a ton of music i wrote on the MPC 1000 and MPC 4000
Octatrack - amzn.to/3cpuuF5 (hopefully prices haven't been gouged..)

True ninja skills revealed here. TY Ricky for your glorious performance. Love your vibe. (Note: We'll post a compilation from our live performances via YT soon.)
What did he do? 😆🤪🤔
Just listened to 5 days of work on Spotify Decent track. odd choice to make a high hat the center of the mix very dis- distracting and way too loud
Breadkrumz sounded like a bunch loopy ish worked on but no finished tracks. Just sayin
Ricky: 2500 dollars on "simple gear"
me: cries in volca keys
Awesome stuff as always man.
Volca is awesome man haha
I feel you man!
cries in mc303
The volca keys is still a great deal but I wish they refreshed the line with some qol features.
that is cheap compared to what I've seen guys spend on modular eurorack gear. Now that can get super expensive fast!
Meris will be the first pedal company to really realise that the synth industry is wide open for pedal/effects makers in the hardware realms.
wow, that's one of the most elegant workflows I've seen yet.
I have no idea what you're explaining here but entertained nevertheless.
Been making tracks on mpc1000 all day... Have a break, see a Ricky Tinez UA-cam notification and what you know you rocking those beats too. Keep it fresh bro 🙃🙂
"Thats all you gotta do! Learn a ton of stuff". Epic
Fantastic showcase of the OT. I love my Digitakt a ton, and just haven’t really understood aside from time stretching what the OT has to offer for the higher price tag, but this really demonstrates the value.
great! makes me wanna bring out my MPC1000 and hook it up to the OT. Never quite could work out a way to make those two work together in a meaningful way, this is inspiring.
Said it before, and I'll say it again: my fav part of the OT is seeing how others use it. I don't use it nothing like Ricky, except sometimes for pickup machines used to record inputs/tracks, sometimes recording track 8 master. It's a brilliant machine, as is this demo/walkthrough.
god damn why do you make everything look sooo easy. fantastic work always spot on an your enthusiasm is endless
The only synth/sample guy I try to watch every video of!
Keep it up man
Very nice Ricky! I got my MPC1000 back in action this year (replaced all the tack switches on there - and the pads) absolutely loving it for playing and jamming with my synths. Just started recording a few bits with it recently - endless fun! Respect dude
"Super simple" LOL : D !!!
I know I would be so frustrated if I had an Octatrack...
Way over my head as usual but this was really fascinating nonetheless. To hear you live would be really really great but to see how you work, what is live vs planed and premade, the speed, your workflow and how it is apparent that you have practised for years and clearly know what you are doing. No questioning or hesitation or doubt, man this is just awesome. Even how you use the otobit, so nice and with such an ease makes me just like: "WTF?"
Super simply Marvelous : )
Man I caught myself dancing !
Thank you so much for this vid 🙏🏻, I had fun watching it, it was super clear ! And I learn a lot about the OT, its purpose was not that clear in my head before but now i really believe that it's a true weapon for live shows !
Your workflow videos are my absolute favorite. I don’t have an Octatrack, but I can just see how it can spice up performances thanks to your walkthroughs!
Bringing new meaning to the label 'ghost producer'.
This video is pure love man , thanks. Is actually very mind blowing what you can do with two powerful samplers that fab house long samples like that ......
Thanks for that Ricky, your videos are much needed in these times.
thanks Ricky I've been trying dif transitions and love your creative options as always
Love it! You're clearly having so much fun here
pure talent workflow
I can't stop watching this. So good!
Talent! Only thing I've seen that has me considering the Octatrack again.
It’s worth every penny.
Rick, love what you do! You're a magician!
Masterclass on OT. Thanks for posting!
I love watching someone work a piece of music tech and just nails it. Fantastic video as expected Ricky. Cheers 😉
Aye Ricky..... you got that shit👏🏾👏🏾. That shit just look complicated. I’ve owned the 1000 years ago and thank God for
iPads for similar results.
this is the first thing that's ever made me want an elektron
That ghost liked the groove so much he just had to play it
Thank you for yet another awesome video,Ricky! "That's all you gotta do, learn a ton of stuff" :) that's the best quote of the day for sure! I always look forward to your new videos as you have taught me so much about production and music tech so I know that I'm always going to learn something new with each new video you post and that is a true gift, the gift of knowledge. Please keep doing what you do as it's hugely appreciated, brother!
Truly mastered those boxes there bro
That jazzy bass house track you bring in is my fave by you man!!! Need a copy of that for my live DJ shows!!! Absolutely slamming brother!! X
Super creative!
Very very very cool
awesome information Ricky, thanks so much. :)
so sick.
Always fun when you show off the OT
Man, I'm convinced and just bought me mpc 1000, as a center of the dawless setup. Thanks
Thanks exactly what I'm doing, I'm just waiting for my mpc 1000 to arrive, gotta say, Ricky was the main reason for my interrest in samplers and dawless setups and the reason for the passion I gain in the old schools mpcs
Why did you choose an mpc1000 over an mpc one?
… And now I own both a Mercury7 and Ottobit jr. for my live setup! And I’m stoked about it.
Once again thanks for sharing workflow. Really inspiring. Although, I must admit that doing scenes on the fly on the octatrack seems to be daunting! But yet again you know your machines better than I know myself. I will catch up one day ;-)
Great! and this is why most of Us want more inputs outputs in the next Octatrack (with overbridge)
That bad news track sounds sooo tight !!!
Super awesome. I'm gonna try to replicate a setup like this. Looks so much fun! "Performance mixer" is a brilliant way of putting it. I'd love for more products like this to be in the market.
love you man. thx
This video is dope. Best ever you made. I have no machine you talk about, but from now I'm really interest for the Octatrack.
Simple but powerful
loved the live set and the DJ set this morning, lockdown made a lot easier with these!
Some really cool tricks here! Dope dude!
Thank you Ricky for another great vid!
Another great video. Thank you for sharing!
Dope! Love my Elektron gear. I use my Elektron Analog 4 to sequence and layer FX for modular gear and Octrack to sample it and serve as master hub via MIDI to CV. Perfect combo plus I save valuable modular case space and cash on fancy sequencer modules.
This entire video is so big brained I can't even. I'm over here with my violin having an existential crisis unable to decide if I want 1500ms or 1600ms on my delay pedal. 10:11 was ridiculous.
I use a web page listing BPMs and relative milliseconds for 1/4, 1/2, etc delay settings. I'll link below after this comment.

Amazing performance and explanations as usual!
Great video! I just got an Octatrack MKII after seeing all the amazing things it can do with the rest of my gear. Definitely a steeper learning curve than my other stuff (OP-1, OP-Z, 0-Coast), but once I get things in order I think it'll be a lot of fun to jam!
blast !!!
Tight !
Awesome stuff brotha, very saucy
Such a rippin set up
That love and hate relationship with the cow bell...
So good. Recently picked up an Octatrack mk1 and I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the thing! Hopefully one day I'll be able to do some of the things you can do! Looking forward to the next jam :)
Tight indeed
hell yeah
Love your house beats!
I've been a pro guitarist for years and have always had an interest in electronic music but since finding your channel I've gone from an interest to fully planning to buy some gear and dive into this world. You destroyed the "just hitting play' myth for me. Very uplifting.
Looking for a tut on beginner basic Octa. The way you explain it makes sense.
Great video
I have somewhat of an intuitive sense of what your saying but I'm going to need to watch this another 3 times to really understand how next level this is . . .
That was great, awesome tips.
crazy.
Need some more releases from you bro...liking this All Nite track! Hope you're well
Your energy duuude!!! :)
This looks like so much fun I’d love to get j to this but wouldn’t know where to start.
I would love to see how a boom bap track would sound from you
dopedopedope...i love this!! this is the content i need right now
Damn that DJ fade was tight
Got to let that sink in (to my brain) for a bit!! wow bro!!! Great vid!! :)
Ricky, I have no idea what you are talking about half the time, but it sounds great ;)
pretty nice skills bless from Guatemala
Nice one. Gives me ideas to test out while also showing somw behind thr scenes of how to set it up. Also cool to see MPC & OT playing well together. Meris fx soubd amazing, but that goes without saying. 🤘🏼
Ohhhh Bad Bad News by Leon Bridges
I caught that sample
I don't use a daw per say I use a mixing website for podcast almost like if audacity was a website and I think I am gonna save money to get an actual laptop and a semi daw/raw sound set up. THANK YOU MAN.
In it to win it.
You're killing me. Just decided to get a Zen Delay together with the Erica Synths Bassline because of your videos, now I'm thinking I should have gotten an OT instead. Just kidding. Love your videos and am really looking forward to each and every one.
Quality content as usual ✨
that second track is prime
love it :)
I've applied your same workflow to my 2500 just that I got a traktor z2 mixer and I'm thinking on adding another 2500 to mix between one and another. 👌🏼🥴💕💕💕💕💕
That's innovative!!
Nice
You should do a video just on cable neatness. I look at the Sargasso Sea of black eels behind my setup, then I look at your setups and weep.
Great video. Makes me wish I kept my MPC1000.
great video breh
Nice, you could probably do most of what the Ottobit is doing using the Octatrack with a combination of track recorder and freeze delay, if you wanted it even more streamlined.
hell ricky, I just sold my whole aria set up, 10k of equipment, it got too much trying to program so many sequencers, so I have invested back into what I know, ableton live, this time I have a 1x1 setup, with 2 ableton systems linked for sync, and a dj mixer between them, each side has a midimix, and a clip launcher, I get upto 16 channels each side, and allows a dj style flow, and the ability to plf whats not playing out on the master, I also have a 8 inch tablet running zen beats and gstomper producer, the tablet is midi capable as well, and all that goes into a 6 channel desk that records straight to mp3, iv cased it all in one box, and it takes seconds to open, and plug in, and I did it all for less than a grand, including the stands, cables etc, there is still a strong argument for the simplicity of a decent midi controller/laptop setup, especially playing live, and in my experience, the less you have, the better you will sound, I no longer sweat at the thought of playing live, and having to cart near 20 machines and all the associated crap along with it, also, we have to take into consideration the audience, who wants to watch someone head bowed sweating over a set, I wanna see some fun and dancing going on, same with the crowd, simplifying allows you to engage more.
nice comment your setups both sound great. but....the part about wanting to see somebody dance.. I definitely don't want to pay to see a dj dance, I could stay home and watch re-runs of fame for that... I want to see somebody involved in making the music. I could stay home and put on a track and look corny dancing by myself if that is what I wanted .... and for free.... I think performers should be making things look more complicated up there, playing every instrument they can else they could just play a cd or an instant replay machine, happy mediums are great on paper but in real life go all in one way or the other.
Derek Johnstone Fraser That might be the longest sentence I've seen in a while
Well done !!! Fresh live setup . #autobit 😁
This is probably the first time the octatrack is made sense to me. I've never really seen it use this way and now that I've seen it I've got to do it.
you can use ableton and a zero slmkii if you just want the mixer ;) cheaper
Round trip latency is too much for inserts using that method. Plus the less I have to deal with my computer (other than recording) the better... and I already have an Octatrack that I've just been too intimidated by until I saw this video.

Great video, so inspiring! I have the Ottobit myself, just wondering if there is any reason you don't go directly through it and use the bypass switch to turn it on/off?
I just sold my MPC1000 last week and am already regretting it. I have other MPC's, but the 1000 is so small and portable.
I think the ghost loves to boogie but better get the sage ready... just in case 👀
