    „Simply making music“ - „just sit down and hit record“. 😊
    It‘s inspiring how almost effortless you make it look … and how much fun you seem to have on the way. So true: it doesn’t have to be complex, complicated, weird or whatever. Just sit down and hit record. And: those live shakers are quite nice, actually.
    Thanks for your time, Ricky, thanks for sharing this video! Cheers!

  • @dracul74
    @dracul74 22 дні тому

    Great stuff. When I work with my samplers my first step (almost always) is to pick a key (not C lol) and sample 6 or 7 chords. Once I chop those to pads I can easily build a pattern for the song. I guess my point is that as keys isn't my primary instrument this approach allows me to figure the pattern and what fits together after the sampling process.

    HAH! This time, I've GOT you, Ricky Tinez! Do you have a Korg EMX-1? No. No, Ricky Tinez, you do NOT. I, however, do. I have waited long for this day, Ricky Tinez. The day on which you would discuss a "simple" DAWless setup, with ANY other piece of gear besides the EMX-1 (or EMS-1). Now, you have fallen into my trap. Do you see me out there, Ricky Tinez? Do you see me, in your mind's eye, standing next to my EMX-1, softly chuckling? Do you? Because I am. Your Octatrack, your Nord... NOTHING you have can touch the insane, elemental, primal goodness of the EMX-1 for simple DAWless setups. BUT... Fear not, for, although you were defeated on this day, there will be others. Now... I shall leave you to contemplate and begin scouring Reverb. (Seriously though, great video - I love the vibe.)
