the gay okay decade. - but complimenting someones hands on a 30-minute synthesizer-tutorial that, apart from the synthesizer, shows only hands and the voice commentary regards what the hands do and the synthesizer plays what the hands say and the sound moves along the ways that the hands moved and you hear what hands hand you and remember the sequence to repeat with your hands too what those hands did in the videou.. nothing sexual about handing a 'thank you' to the hands that feed you. - I wrote a poem.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! You're 1000 times better than all those Red Means Recording or Cuckoo, explaing during 2 hours things that you show in 4 minutes. Super efficient content!
Haha, thanks man :P. I have a few ideas for new Digitone tutorials: making leads, making pads and velocity sensitive patches, making drums, and one for general elektron sequencer tricks, maybe. None of it's planned yet, though!
Thank you! For someone just getting into Digitone, i really enjoyed the format. Really like the notebook sketch as you explain intent. Sounds are amazing. Especially the sound you created in the preparation for the tutorial, at the end!
Thank you! It was a lot of fun to make, but man does it take a lot of planning and practice. I recreated the bass patches from scratch several times before recording, and each time they turned out different :P
Like the logical way you look at this, very much the same as myself by breaking down the mapping structure and then putting together a flow chart or workflow. Either way really enjoyed this :)
Thanks! When making the tutorials I try to make it so that *I* understand it after a year or two of not using the Digitone. I don't always think in this exact order every time, but these are bits of information that I can use deliberately once I know about them. Thanks for checking it out, man :)
Man, that patch you made by accident is crazy. I hope I will recreate it by accident too while playing noodling with the last patch you explain in the video.
Thank you! It's even easier to trigger happy accidents now that you can randomize parameter pages :D. It's mostly down to luck, but it's a fun way to make patches.
Happy to see I'm not alone using the HPF with a resonance amount to boost the fundamentals of bass sounds, the digitone seems very weak on the bass department without using this trick IMO (I'm a bass addict haha). Very interesting video anyway, I think its the most educational digitone video I saw, that didn't try to be purely educational, and still as a bass addict, I love that you did this about BASS! cheers
Thank you Ivar. I have just bought a Digitone and this is going to be so helpful as I think you have achieved great sounds and seeing you doing it is excellent. Excellent video too.
Really enjoyed this video Ivar. I don't have a Digitone myself. Infact, non of my hardware involves menu diving except for a Zoom multistomp. I would like to dip into the world of either the DIgitone or the Octatrak at some point though, so I always watch with interest. Thank you for the video.
Love your music. First time watching an informational video from you. It's excellent! I'm going back through slowly and trying to understand things you are doing that are very different from how I work with the digitone. Such a vast device. For example how you enter trig notes for the "cheesy" baseline. I always end up playing things in live and then holding down a recorded trig and adjusting the note on the trig page of I want to change it. You're doing something else there that seems to involve the "add notes" page.
This is the best Digitone tutorial on youtube! One question I have - if you were using the Digitone just for a bass sound would you increase the locked voices to 8 and unison to 8?
Sorry about the late reply! I haven't found a good use of unison higher than 3. I think unison 2 is the sweet spot; it widens the sound nicely without getting too busy. The higher the unison, the more busy it becomes, and I have a hard time using that kind of sound. Instead of high unison, I prefer to add an extra note an octave up to get a bigger sound.
@@IvarTryti Thanks for the reply! This is something I've been experimenting with lately so I really appreciated your opinion. I have found that sometimes with some types of bass sounds the Digitone can sound quite weak and not punchy enough and I think getting the voicing and the unison right is key.
Thank you very much! I'm trying to put together a leads and pads tutorial right now, actaully :). I hope I can get it filmed this weekend, but I can't promise anything!
Bangin tutorial, man. I'm a little bit confused about how you created that drum stutter, though. Did you say that the arpeggiator was involved? Sounds super tight.
Thank you, Lerge! The drum stutter is made when you enable the arp and set its speed to 1/32th notes. It will repeat at that speed as long as you're holding down the trig. Since you can't parameter lock the arp, but you CAN parameter lock the sound/patch, you can save a normal version of the kick and an arp enabled version of the kick. Whenever you want a stutter kick, hold the trig where you want it and sound lock it to the arp enabled kick sound.
Thank you very much! Whenever you play a note with unison enabled, it'll use X amount of voices and pan then slightly left or right, and also pitch the notes a tiny bit up or down at random. It's a quick and easy way to widen the sound, but it does use up more voices. I also think the LFOs will have slightly different phase, which helps make it sound a bit less stilted and robotic. I usually only set the unison to 2, because it basically means that when that track plays a note, I only have 6 voices left to spread across the other 3 tracks. And in my opinion, the higher the unison, the less each new voice adds to the overall sound, so my favorite setting is 2.
Currently saving up money to get the digitone and many orher things. I love the way you fly through the set up, how did id take you to get comfortable with it?
I had been using the Digitakt for half a year before I got the Digitone, and because of that it didn't take more than a week until I felt comfortable with the basics of the Digitone. It took me longer with the Digitakt because it was my first piece of Elektron gear, but I think both are straight forward enough that you can make nice loops within hours of using them (given you're watching tutorials, too) :)
Hello Ivar, thank you so much for making this video! It was really helpful and taught me a lot. I just want to mention, that the X and Y outputs do not represent carriers. They are our sound outputs. Your carriers in algorithm 2 are actually your C and B operators. You know this, because they have a line directly connecting them to the sound outputs, X and Y. Your carrier outputs sound, and your modulators modulate that sound. It's important to note that your operators can be both a carrier and a modulator at the same time. For example, on algorithm 1, your B1 is both a carrier and a modulator. You can see that it has a line directly connecting it to your X output, but it also as a line connecting it to C. So it is both outputting sound, and modulating sound at the same time. See here to learn more(ua-cam.com/video/Wf203qcju5w/v-deo.html) Either way, this was really well done! I hope you have an awesome day.
Thanks for watching! You're right, I'm using the wrong words here. When I'm talking about X and Y I'm calling them carriers, because I associate carriers with the "end result" that we're hearing. I should be calling them the outputs instead. Thanks for the heads up, man. Also, your video has some of the best visual aids I've seen explaining this! Great explanation :)
Hey Ivar! I realise you have a sound patch by the name of 'smooth bass'. Just wondering if you made that preset or was it bought off a certain sample pack? It's exactly what I'm looking for 😁
Thank you! I made that patch from scratch. I don't have the DN here, but I think I made it by using the 2nd algorithm, set the B operators all the way to the right (16 and 16) and max feedback and max operator B volume to get a harsh and noisy sound on Y. Then set the harmonics so that the C operator looks like a saw, then slowly increase operator A's volume so that X sounds like a slightly buzzy saw. Then set the mix aaaaalmost all the way to X, so that only a bit of the harsh noise of Y comes through. If you want a BOOMY bass, set use a hp filter with a bit of resonance so that the bump is somewhere low so you're basically boosting the bass. To soften the sound, you can go into the 2nd filter page and roll off a bit of the high end there. Lemme know if that was confusing, I'm more than happy to (try to) clarify =D
@@IvarTryti hello Ivar!! Super duper appreciate your detailed reply man, truly. I'll work on it with those info you provided, think I should be able to navigate around that! Thanks so muchhh!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏽🙌🏽
@@guanxianchen Hehe, my pleasure man! The general idea is to have 1 "saw" sound and 1 noise sound and mix them together and filter out the high end, so if my tips sound a bit off just explore from there and see if you can find the sweet spots :D
Hello Ivar! I just wanted to let you know I tried out the suggestions from you but wasn't able to achieve that bass smooth bass' tone from your video, maybe I'll revisit it again. I really loved your 'smooth bass' patch sound! This is unrelated but in one of your videos I remember you mentioning some ways to get rid of the 'click' sound on certain steps besides increasing the attack. I seem to have click sound at the start of certain bass notes. Could I tap onto your expertise and asked you here quickly? Thank you so much!!!
It makes it so that the filter cutoff changes depending on which note you're playing. The lower note you play, the further down the filter cutoff is set. Same thing when playing higher notes; the filter cutoff is moved up. If you're losing the sub bass, you just have to move the filter cutoff around until you get the sub bass back. The main reason I like using filter keytracking is so that, if I have a sound with low cutoff to get a nice and big bass sound, then the higher notes will almost disappear because they're being filtered out. With filter keytracking, the filter cutoff will follow the notes and you'll get almost the same loudness no matter what note you're playing.
I can't promise anything, but I CAN say that high resonance, high overdrive and high *master overdrive* gets you a really aggressive and acid-like sound :D
@@IvarTryti I need a 3 octave master keyboard, than replace my old dx7 fm synth with that digitone so it'll be easier to program, and it'll be also connected to OT and AR on Elektron (their sync is perfect together with no lags)
A Digitone drum tutorial has been in the back of my mind for a very long time, but I've never gotten around to make it. I can't promise anything, but my next indepth tutorial like this will likely be on how to do drums :)
Can you explain real quick what is exactly that you do when you sequence the bassline with the "add note" button ? I feel like i'm missing something here. For me I just add a note than change the pitch with a paramater lock when you seem to do something much faster but not sure how you do it o.O
When you press TRIG+ADD NOTE, you enter a mode where you can toggle which notes that plays on that particular trig. Whatever note you press here is toggled on, and you can see which notes this trig will play in the upper right corner of the screen. When I add notes to the trig, I often add the wrong note, so I press it again to toggle it off. I'm also doing a lot of copy and pasting of trigs, because I want the new trigs to have the same properties, like note length. I then press TRIG+ADD NOTE to change the notes for the new trigs I copied. Hope that was helpful! Edit: parameter locking the note value is actually my favorite way of adding notes, but the Digitone doesn't preview the note so I can't hear if I chose the right note. The Digitakt does preview the note value, so I use that method there =). The add note feature on the Digitone is technically better though!
That's really dope, something I wouldn't of even thought about.. j just wanted some sweet bass sounds and I got this :) thanks for your insight.. it would be sweet to see a video about copying patterns and chaining..
@@kylewall8521 Thanks for watching man, glad it was helpful! I have a few digitone tutorials planned, but haven't started working on them yet. Is there anything in particular you're wondering about? I don't use pattern chaining often, but I do copy patterns a lot!
@@IvarTryti just a general video about pattern chaining and copying/pasting patterns would be great :) I haven't seen much on that, cuckoo explained a bit in his tutorial video but it was quick, I have the mac pro tutorial video with Thavius Beck, which is great but he didn't say anything about this..
Heeeeeeey! I'm learning stuff already, the unison page was one I never looked at. Do you save all your sounds to the sound pool? Because it would be great to share some of these patches.
Glad to hear it! :D I don't save all my sounds to the pool, only the drum sounds. Each track can have its own sound per pattern, which is usually more than enough. For the drums though, I need to constantly switch sounds, so they are great candidates for saving to the sound pool.
Haha, thanks man :D I've been playing with the thought of releasing a sound pack for the Digitone, but I feel I need more patches to justify it. One day, hopefully!
