This is the best tutorial I’ve seen so far on the Samples. Fits my learning style perfectly. You presented the subject in a logical manner and included a multitude of functions concisely. I look forward to viewing your other tutorials.
This video was magic. I'm getting one. This is the first thing to do with Elektron I've seen that hasn't been in code or lingo. Superb. Thank you!
I seriously think that every music gear tutorial on UA-cam should be like this one! This was just exactly what I needed. Thank you very much!
Just got my Model:Samples today and this is exactly what I needed, thanks.
Very helpful video. Especially with the more involved, deeper functions this awesome machine is capable of. Thanks so much
Best tutorial on this Elektron box. I learned a lot from it...very practical!
Short and sweet. Well done.
Thank you!
Such a great video. I've been gradually getting to grips with the Samples, but you've made so much drop into place for me. Thanks for hitting on so much useful stuff and for explaining it so clearly. Really appreciate your help.
You have a very natural teaching ability, makes watching these tutorials easy.
Thank you so much, I enjoy being useful
@@EZBOT_ Your teaching surpass utilitarian ideals and constraints - focusing more basic concepts of teaching.
By showcasing how to use basic functions from sequencer, track building sand mild sound design, this tutorial is perfectly aimed at someone who wants to hit the ground running, and will picked up the Model:Samples for the first time.
Rather then the usual ; *here's how you get this* sound cliché, ... RATTLING off information that anyone pulled from the manufactures.
This - Clean format, Uncluttered, Informative, knowledgeable processes, being mildly creative not detract from the overall informative tutorial.

@@matthewb8s wow, I appreciate that thorough and kind comment. I will continue to make this sort of content. Thank you again! I hope you join the discord, the link is pinned at the top of the comments.
Best Model:Samples Tutorial. Thank you so much. Very well explained. You feel it!
This was terrific. Great refresher for me. Looking forward for a Model:Cycles. Thanks.
I learned some new functions explained easily and comprehensively here in your tutorial. Thank you for your version of explaining the model samples.
Seriously thinking of getting the Model:Samples, loads of videos out there and this is one of the better ones! Excellent work.
Excellent! So well explained and demonstrated - thankyo!
I have just bought this groove box and this video was by far the best tutorial. Thanks
model in a nutshell
simply the best tutorial yet
Wow. That was sooo good to see, how flexible this Box could be. Just got mine a few days ago and got really inspired by this multifunctional use of each note. Thank you so much
Merci ! :-) This is the best tutorial on the Model:Samples I have heard, and seen
Great beginners tutorial! Easy to follow and good fundamentals for a start.
Lots of info in a short amount of time and right to the point. Listening to the immediate effects of the changes is helpful so I can go back and rewatch the changes. This video will help me make significant progress. I didn't realize how powerful this little box is!
This is a SUPERB tutorial and has explained a great deal to this noob! Thanks so much, dude!
Great tutorial showing the power of Elektron’s workflow, looking forward to the Cycles version since I’m leaning towards that one.
Thank you for this great tutorial, it really helps a lot, and it's great you covered it as a Quick start guide!
That was awesome!! Just picked up a second hand Model:Samples and was really confused by the manual’s quick start description. Now, thanks to this video, I have my hands in this enough to feel confident that I can get grooving with this box. Thanks!!
Just bought a used M:S. This tutorial is what I needed. Many thanks!!
Fantastic tutorial. Thanks!
Great one!
Thank you very much to keep it short and focused!
You’re welcome!
Thank you EZBOT. This is a great tutorial. It made the process of getting something down that sounds like music, easy and understandable... all the while teaching me how to get around the device. Now will I remember all the shortcuts after I type this message, well, that's a different story! Great video.
Ok, I am sold... 😂 I happily discovered your channel with the "Octatrack goes Effectmachine"-videos, but since the Model:Samples was actually referred to my today by the world´s best service technician aka "Werkstatt Matlak", I just went on UA-cam in order to find a comprehensive overview´ish tutorial and #bam ...
...found THIS both entertaining and informative video. I am a simple man, I mainly use the traditional X0X-machinery by Roland. But I guess THIS will spice up that rig with just about the right amount of contemporary awesomeness 😹
Thanks, Matthew EZBOT 🥇
This was very well done. Straight to the point without losing the swing. I'm using one in all my live performances this summer, but still timid to flip stuff on the fly. This video gave a push to this desire. Thanks!!!
Thank you!
Bravo 👏 amazing tutorial. Instilling confidence ✊
Great tutorial. Very easy to follow, and extremely empowering
to finish. Would be great if you could release more on the Modal Samples.
Thanks for the great tutorial
I went from having no idea how to make anything other than turning it on and off to making tracks in less than 8 minutes watching this video. Thank you very much.
another great video as always!!
thank you!
Just got one of these and this is the tutorial im looking for, great video thanks
pretty cool dude. you are so straight forward and calm at the same time.
you have covered the most important features in the video. highly recommended!
Thank you!
Great tutorial!
Incredible stuff mate. Found it really helpful with no knowledge of production but just bought the samples as a first piece of gear. You seem like a great guy - wishing you all the best in life!!!
Quality Tutorial. ✊🏾
very inspiring.
love and appreciate your vids on the elektron gear!!!
tnx
Thank you!
I'm out of words really, great job, well done, thank you and yes, a very decent track 🙂
as a person with severe adhd who desperately wants to learn, but has a very hard time following youtube vids- this was truly the most helpful one yet. easy to pause and tinker with sounds & go right back in, easy to rewind w/o an overload of information or lack of information. THANK YOU SERIOUSLY, iv never been able to successfully make a good beat before til now💙💙💙
What a fantastic comment! Thank you so much and I am so happy for you! Good feels for us both!
Great Job! Thank you
Excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Thank you!
Absolutely superb tuto! I've watched a bunch of them but this is by far, the easiest to understand. Sometimes the workflow on this guy is a bit confusing. But again, great work. Subbed!
Thx for the tutorial, it is the first drum machine i bought and it makes fun to get into it every tip is worth every second and minute ;-)
Это лучшее пособие по созданию музыки! Спасибо вам большое.
Thanks for the material, great stuff:)
Perfect tutorial. Can't wait to get mine tomorrow!
Congrats!
So for some reason i can't reply to my comment, but i found out i can use the LFO for generating lil panning patterns. Thanks again so much man, the elektron workflow was really intimidating, but you gave a great little introduction to help get me started. You're the best!
thank you so much! This is very useful for a complete beginner
Absolutely best! Thank's a lot
Absolutely stellar tutorial. Helped me turn my new technological enigma machine into an actual instrument. Thank you!
Happy to hear it!
really nice tutorial. I like how you used the panning directions as an interesting sound effect. Definitely a very informative vid
thank you!
Amazing tutorial. Thanks. Even though it is a tad bit too fast for me to follow without pausing and repeating , the information is gold
this was very useful to me, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Works for me! Thx!
hey brotha, not gonna lie, I bought one of these a few months ago and am just now getting into it. You did exactly what got me started learning the MC-505 back in the day: you walked through building a song. Incredibly well done.
You wouldn't know it by the brevity of your words, but you dropped a TON of knowledge into 22minutes, people won't even be fully aware of what they learned. I wish I could double like, so I just subbed instead!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words friend :)
Superbly well explained . Thank you. (Subbed). Cheers. Lee
Great intro. Definitely picked up a few things I didn’t know. Cheers
Happy to hear it!
Thanks so much for this, just bought on of these and your video has been really helpful explaining how it works - Electron gear is great but hard to get into!
really nice tutorial man, appreatiate it, i have dusted out my samples, time to play a bit
wish you could walk me through using my other gear! your approach was perfect for seamlessly teaching functionality and menus organcially while making this beat. much appreciated. i've gone through this a couple of times and it's made this little thing way more approachable. elektron should thank you for filling in the blanks. this would have gone back or gathered dust if not for your awesome introduction!
Nice work
Excellent stuff. A follow up video would be greatly appreciated.

Fantastic Useful Tutorial !
You showed me some serious stuffs which I absolutely dont know and now i can use those on my Model:Cycles.
I can tell you one "trick"(maybe you dont know it) : When you are in the "FACTORY" menu you can listen your sound, you only need to hit the corresponding pad. You can do this when you're changing your waveform or instrument in "trigger/condition mode" too with 3 fingers > stay on the trig, turn you factory "knobutton" and hit you pad in the same time !(hope it will help... or not ;))
Thanks for all the great job, your videos are really pedagogical and clear as water, it's very pleasant !
Greetings !
Thank you so much! I appreciate the tip :)
I don’t know why I’ve just found this video now, thanks a lot really clear, precise and easy for newbies to follow too. Made me drag my samples out again too 🙏
I do hope you cover more of my gear too really imformative
Genial Tips 👊 thks...
Tack!
Had mine about 4hrs, and now I'm rolling!
This was so helpful, thank you.
Keep up the good work, Fella!
...now ...how do I save and name my track? 🎶☺🎶
Cool...!

Great tutorial on the Model Samples. I have only had mine about a week and am finding it both inspiring but also a little frustrating. It is not harder to use than other gear, but it is quite different. What I love about it are...the sequencer, great and inspiring built in samples, excellent built in reverb with size control (yey), the filter also has its own nice sound.
I do find myself scratching my head a lot, but I believe the rewards of mastering this little instrument will be worth it! I'm not a fan of the look of the device though, so sterile, so I've ordered an overlay from Oversynth. Should make the sections clearer and easier to use too!
I'm in the same boat as you... a lot of things in this video were things I already knew...and some were lightbulb moments where I just knew the thing had to be a little deeper than what I was getting out if it. This is probably one of the best tutorials I've seen for this, in depth or not. I can't think of any other ~20 minute video that really does set you up to make a track with some of the cool little tricks built in. Hell, the manual doesn't even do that!
@@s3nsec0rruptr80 Yeah, for me the creation of the fill trigger on Page was unexpected and super useful. Everything else was new though, I've had mine for a couple months and I was still treating it like the MC-505 I learned on back in the day. [define all your pattern lengths etc up front.]
Conditional triggers on bars as well as retrigs were very new to me and are quite nice.
💣tutorial
I like!
You’re the greatest!
Thanks! Learned a lot from the video, just got my m:s and love it so far! Still learning the workflow, as im comming from the electribe 2. Thank you!
You make great videos! One thing I don't fully understand about the Model Series is the LFO Speed control. Does this change the LFO frequency relative to what it is set at in the LFO setup menu? Or independently? For instance, if you have the LFO setup menu at x2 the tempo, does the LFO Speed control change that to x4, x8, x16? Or does it change the LFO relatively, in which case a slight change would throw the LFO off the tempo sync. It seems weird to have 2 different ways to control LFO frequency, but maybe I just don't understand it.
2nd question, when using in a performance and holding TRACK to adjust all parameters at once, do all parameters change relative to where they started? If you hold TRACK and push a parameter to an extreme, does it zero out that parameter for all tracks? Thanks EZBOT!
hi! thanx for the video, is super useful! how can you save the project/track?
Obrigado!
Thanks!
Very awesome tutorial. Bitesize just works.
This is definitely the underrated one out of the bunch. It has charm and is still capable, just look at Raumskaya does with it.
It feels like a toy in the best sense of the word, it makes you want to play with it. Instant gratification. It can still IDM.
I end up not even pairing it with the digitone and just use it by itself and it can go really far without the mangling capabilities of the others.
Still want a Takt and Octa and Tracker though lmao. Oh the problems of choice
Thank you so much and you should definitely get a Takt and Octa!
@@EZBOT_ I might as well resign myself to starting an Elektron museum in my house lmao.
Love your content btw. Great work.
Quick Q: Takt or Tracker to pair with Digitone + M:S and Circuit Mono? Probably only makes sense to go Octa at that rate right?
@@mechatomb2921 id get an OT for that but the DT is my favorite - so I’d have to say get both haha
@@EZBOT_ Oh well! Bye bye wallet!
Awesome video, I just hope they release a MK2 soon with an internal battery. That is the only thing that prevents me from buying any of Models...
Thanks for the wonderful tutorial! Which one of them do you like more, Mr Grey or Mr White?
I am a my Grey fan :)
👌
Great lil' video. Question: When I tweak the cutoff knob on an OSC track in live record, it plays back all stepped in half-tones. Anyone know what's up?
Is there a way to pan each individual hit? Thanks so much for the video btw, insanely helpful.
With the LFO set to square wave on trig . Destination pan
Would love to see a cycles version
That is next :)
Me too! Great video.
Te quiero mucho.
Hola gente, necesito que me ayuden con un problema, mí model samples no graba en vivo. Al apretar el botón de grabar y hacer sonar los track no quedan grabados en la secuencia. No se escuchan ni parpadean, alguien sabe a qué puede deberse? Muchas gracias
Great refresher, thanks! Question: is there a way to set tempo to global across patterns? Like, I’m using Cycles as a master and Samples as a slave in a live set and don’t want tempos jumping when I switch patterns.
That’s how it is set up by default :)
@@EZBOT_ really? Mine isn’t working that way, bought used. Where in the menu would I check it’s setting? I’ve been all through it and can’t seem to locate. Arg!! Lol. Thanks!
How possible would this be to do one handed? Im disabled and find so many hardware devices are quite awkward. I have reasonable reach maybe I can still fiddle encoders with a step held? Maybe Digitakt would work better due to layout? As others have said excellent tutorial. Fantastic presentation. Thank you!
It's fairly wide. Using the "Function" key & stretching to the other side won't be possible, I"m sure.
Would this be good for making psytrance music and would the bass synths be good enough for psytrance as well I see lot of videos on Acid Techno Drum & Bass but not psytrance
it totally would :)
I watched at least 20 different videos on Model:Samples and I've never found the answers I found here with your video, so thank you for posting it. One question: how do you compare writing drum lines for song recording with Model:Samples vs. using a drum VST? I'm tempted to buy Model:Samples, but in my head I don't see a real advantage vs. using a computer except for the fact to have a real control surface instead of using the mouse. Is it worth it?
I agree with you. It’s all about what inspires you to get into your flow. Sound design isn’t the Model:samples strong suit, performance and composition is. Maybe make sounds with the vst and bring them into the model:samples
is it possible to use LFO>Pan modulation with hight LFO frequency (1-2khz) like on Digitalkt for example ?
I don’t see why not :)
@@EZBOT_ cool thanks ;-)
Btw , can anyone tell me how i can erase all information on a single track of the 6 tracks? I find it super confusing. Untill now i managed to erase the whole set But not the track i wanted to …. 😊.
I read the manual but am not sure how to interpret it at times.
I am trying to avoid going into having to do it note for note using the sequencer buttons
Does digitakt have temporary save?
Yep!
This machine is really confusing .. I learn a bunch of stuff about it and forget how to use it the very next time. Gonna go back to my drum machine from the 90's.
