lol here u are, the reason i got into electronic music making, and two years later i found u in the comment section of my next gear. full circle moment lfg
As a sampler, it's very powerful and flexible and it can be done. It's a valid use case but if you're hoping to have something that you can live input for improvised beats over other instruments like a traditional drum machine, I'd say it's one of its weaker points. If you want to have patterns that are pre-made and you just need to trigger them, it should work solid for that!
fantastic speed. I really like my Digitakt work flow but I'd like a pocket device. since they are both essentially tracker based, do you think I'd find the M8 natural to get into? Do you find only 8 tracks restrictive? Is it possible to swap in different samples per step like you can with Digitakt?
A lot of elektron users have nothing but nice things to say about the M8 workflow. Every different step can be an entirely different synth engine or sample!
Thank you. I plan on doing something more long form with descriptions in the future. I don't do lessons as I don't really have the time or means of setting something like that up. But maybe something to consider in the future 🤔
I know 80s and syntheave but can M8 Tracker MK2 do more than these? It seem like everyone buy it just to make these even rhe promotion ads, also if I want my first music learning and making device, should I get it or OP-1 Field, just one without getting any extra addition to make music like ultra modern music?
You can make anything you want on it. Drum n bass, techno, acid, synthwave, footwork, pop... hell, people use it to make metal. Here is a playlist of community submitted songs from the last meetup -> ( ua-cam.com/video/OkSNK664NaA/v-deo.html ) Personally I do NOT think the OP-1F is a good first music making device as its workflow is quite esoteric and it is VERY expensive for something that is in many ways painfully restrictive for someone who is just getting started. But you could say the same about trackers, so, it really comes down to the workflow that's best for you. So unless you NEED hardware to start your music journey, it doesn't hurt to start with some free software and plugins and go from there.
wow! great work :) i am jealous, everytime i see a video there is such a nicely sorted bank of sounds. i bought mine used and it is a total mess. full of samples that don't even play and the filesystem is completely chaotic. is there a place to find a nice package of well sorted samples and sounds to start the m8 journey?

I feel like I’m watching someone speed running mega man while making music.
Cool :)
I feel it
lol here u are, the reason i got into electronic music making, and two years later i found u in the comment section of my next gear. full circle moment lfg
jeez was about to comment that this reminds me of RMRs older stuff, but without edits. amazing
How is this not just 10 minutes of looking for the right hi hat sample?
This tbh
You can settle on one in ONLY 10 minutes? I'm jealous.
Cool a tracker. My cousin was a huge fan of these. It's great to see them back. Long live the Amiga :)
jesus christ dude you’re fast with this thing, that sounded great
jeez you're fast. to me it's one of the most intuitive UIs out there and I never used a tracker before.
the synth sounds like a swarm of bees fist bumping. Also the way you move around this device is insane good stuff man!
This is pretty much me every lunch break and now I have 100s of unfinished tracks and patterns 😅
@@raoulduke8094 this is the way.
Absolutely incredible. I finally bothered to learn the fill shortcuts so I could follow along.
Wow this is amazing. I haven't picked up mine in what feels like forever. Forgot how fun and fast it can be.
Had mine a day and loving it so far..love this..I need to learn how to do those fills! Great track!
Very cool! Seeing how you put a jam together, and so fast, it’s awesome!
Inspiring, need to jam my headless into a sensible case, the use of the selection box and the multiple sidechaining techniques were very helpful
Totally digging it. Love it. I just finally managed to get my headless to work. Gonna try to go in-depth into it.
This is some next level speed 🔥🔥
What I love is that I totally get what you are doing. I'm not that fast yet, but much faster than I was a month ago.
How proficient are you now? Trying to get a feel for the learning curve. Worried I'll burn out before getting good with it

Learned a ton from this crash course. Thank you for sharing!
Next time I do this I hope to add captions or narration to explain more of what goes into something like this. Thanks for watching!
10 minutes and 6,000 keystrokes. You're awesome!
😂
nice going mikey, now you done it
Beautiful
Muscle memory, bes! Loved it.
Sick dude, this sounds great! You're super skilled on the M8, great job man.
Dirtywave M8 Speetrun I LOVE IT. I hope i can do the same. In 2-5 years
hey man i like what you're doing here!
The Kung-Fu Master of the M8 😮
Mikeyyyy love your M8 content!!
That's amazing, awesome job buddy!
Thanks for sharing, this is inspiring!
Man, you're so fast 😅. Cool to see you making more m8 stuff!
flying Mikey! nice tune too
@AVRILCADABRA - how does he get the open high hat sound by adding the del effect, or is it just velocity?
@@HIFI1965 it's decay i think
Great stuff as always! ❤

Holy shit. Well, that was inspiring!!!
Holy shit. This is amazing
awesome
thoughts on making this my first sampler drum machine for a live setting?

Where to get that updated 303 instrument you demo in the video with Ezbot?
@@huftonw It is available in the Dirtywave Discord server in the resources section. Look up "303 preset"
M8 king!
Wow!! Incredible. How do you add brackets around currently selected parameter??
It's the new cursor design on the latest beta firmware, available via discord

woah mikey 303 more like mikey 101! because youre!

You can contact support @ dirtywave . com for the stock samples and presets that come with the device. They are all very neatly organized!
@@mikey303 thank you
Great,,,
Does that library of sounds you menu through come with the M8 or those need to be purchased separately? If separate, where’s a good resource for them?
The M8 does come with most of those presets as well as a library of samples!
Can this be ported to Nintendo DS?
Speedrun?
🤯
Are chords takes only one track?!
Yes. Hypersynth can do paraphonic chords!
@@mikey303 Thanks! Only Hypersynth or all VA presets?

YOU HAVE TWO???????
i buy one from you.....?
Pls pls pls?
Sorry, I use both :) there will be more in 2024!
make a video on how you use both :P

Great video was bopping along the entire time, for sure convinced me to get one of these things when they're available.
Great music!!
By the way, how you can get that surround text cursor? I upgraded mine firmware to lateat but cannot seem to find similar setting 🥹
I believe it is the latest beta firmware!
@@mikey303 my god!! thanks for the info! And I've been using your sounds like a lot for jamming 😎 thanks for those perfect sounds too!!!
