    Dateline....I'm gonna buy your 4. This has made my mind up. This elektron product has the right amount of balance for my immediate needs. Recently, some robber stole all my equipment from my street corner studio. This will help me get back on my feet again....thanks, and I wish you well.

    The video that made me get an A4. No regrets 4 years later.

    it's amazing, before this video I never even knew I need a 4 voice analog synth!

  • @1vootman
    @1vootman 10 років тому +6

    I went big and bought the A4 and the Octatrack....sold some other good analog equipment to get it, but it's worth it. It's the functionality of the WHOLE system that sold me.

    @jeffreygrantsr4525 7 років тому +2

    That note sequence(A,B,F#,E) (IV, VI, ii, I) is infectious. I went to get coffee and found the sequence still playing in my head. Good work! :)

    The beginning two oscillator synth sounds like atoms for peace, the synth that plays the happier part in Default. Very professional quality.

    What a joy to watch a man who so knows his instrument, such a delight to listen to a man who can do music on it.
    What a pain it must be wearing strap on binoculars to read that screen at the same time . .

    I also just bought an Analog Four because of this vid! great work! hoping i can make some nice textures also.

    Great Vid! Very inspiring!

    After owning and using A4 for a few weeks I start to understand what Dataline is doing in this video. I suppose I was convinced to buy one originally after seeing this particular video, but back then I had no idea what he was doing with knobs and buttons. :) Some properly produced tutorial videos from Elektron would really be nice!!!

      Your comment is a year old so you've probably learned everything that he is doing in the video by now. If not, however, in about about two weeks I'm going to post a complete, chronological description of literally everything that Mr Dataline does to create the first pattern. Keep an eye out on the Elektronauts forum.

    • @iBaraban
      @iBaraban 8 років тому

      Justin McCamish thanks! please post how to work with chain/song mode. and your thoughts on approaching this machine as a composing/performing tool.

    • @Lukree
      @Lukree 8 років тому

      +Justin McCamish Heh, yes, after a year of practice really makes the difference! Still having my elektrons (A4 and Rytm), and while those are every now and then a bit quirky, I'll stick with them! Awesome machines. Cannot approach Dataline's Elektron Ninja level, but at least I'm not slaughtered on first level anymore.

      You know, in the end, you're gonna have to own both ;)
      I started with the Analog Four, but ended up getting the Octatrack too, and I don't regret any of them, they're giving me so much pleasure and fun !

    • @thomasmrak9261

  • @Artistlife1
    @Artistlife1 11 років тому +1

    I just received my Analog Four on Friday. Thanks for getting my creative juices flowing. Just the ablity to take a monotone track and change it on the fly is very cool. All the other parameter locks that go along with it. :)
    Edit: I just created a track with a combination of created sounds, stock sounds, and one note rythems tweeked to perfection. This is really awesome!

    @antfactor 11 років тому +1

    Your demo's are SO great... one thing I'd love to hear you do is make some really messed up dark-tweaked sounds and use them in a less predictable & non-grid (or multi-grid) manner to really show how free-range/form the sequences can get - a machine consumed with consuming itself... ;) If anyone can do this, YOU can. :) Thanks for all the fab examples.

    Machinedrum is another instrument, it's mainly built for drums and percussion-type sounds, you have 16 tracks that can play all at the same moment. Analog 4 is much different, being analog having 4 tracks (that can trigger different sounds) and very beautiful effects (delay, reverb, chorus). Machinedrum also has effects but more digital and less sophisticated sounding

    bout to cop this. for youz guyz complaining about the price, I gotta say that this unit is very reasonably priced - they coulda tacked a few hundred more. but here's a pro tip for music fiends with little cash - pool some friends together and buy gear online from Sweetwater. if you buy a bunch of gear at once, they will work with you on the price.
