The only time I have fun with my Syntakt.. is when I try to break it. Control all is a great way to start a new track from an already made pattern your really happy with. It's like throwing a bunch of paint on the wall and then mute stuff, add and remove trigs, follow the path where it wants to go.
I actually really liked the weird spooky spaceship stuff. I need to explore Ctrl-all more, I've mostly been using it to transpose pitch in predictable ways. But I need to be less afraid to destroy my patterns. That's what it's there for, and one of the unique things about Elektron boxes! That and delay automation are things I haven't explored much...
Thanks! Yeah I know what you mean, never know what you'll end up with so it's a bit intimidating even with the quick save/load! But also the way you make songs is really something special, so it would be neat to see what you do with it if you use it!
Has taken a year for this to get to me. Thanks, belatedly. 😆 Elektron are responsible for a few remarkable implimentations, imo, p-locks, crtl all, step probabilty, pattern reload. Just great fun to perform with. Cheers for your video, enjoyed it. 👍
@@hexwavemusic I was a big sonic Youth head back in the day, what you did there is super cool. I can see how amazing this machine would be just jammin with an AR mk2. Your videos have really highlighted some things I don't think others are covering at all. That scales video you did makes this one of the coolest machines elektron has ever made IMHO. Just discovered you recently.. keep'm coming!
@@peladoclaus That means a lot, thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment, honestly it's hard to tell before I upload if anyone will care about a video so it's always great to hear :)
Haha it's funny I never realized I used CTRL like the keyboard button in this thumbnail and title! You won't find a button that says that 😂 CONTROL all is done by holding the Track button!
I've been enjoying your series of Chroments recently. Small feedback... I think you'd benefit from upping the production quality - better lighting, better voice over, better graphics (text overlays), timestamps, and possibly more pre-planned structure. Obviously, maybe you prefer the more lo-fi approach, which is fine, but I was initially dismissive given the huge amount of high production content circulating youtube. Anyhow, appreciate your work!
Hey Robbie, thanks for watching and for the feedback. Of course I'd like to have better everything as you suggest, but the reality is that costs a lot of money and takes a lot of time, and as I don't make money off of this, I'll have to continue making small improvements here and there as I have been over time. All the things you list pretty much are areas I have improved in recently, to the best of my current ability. I also enjoy watching the big name UA-camrs and I'm glad to have them as an example of where I could be one day, but it will be a long time if I get there. As for timestamps, I don't believe I have the ability with the small size of my channel to make them yet (UA-cam gates a lot of features behind channel size), as I can't find any option to do them. Hopefully one day though! Anyways I do appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching, have a good day!
@@hexwavemusic i get you 100%. Creating niche content makes it hard to develop a large following, and obviously money/time can always be big limiting factors. Keep it up tho, I've already applied a few ideas you've shown for the ST to great effect
all ellektron users think its funny to explain things without explaining or missleading exactly. That the new humor in the world. I hope they will accept wrong payments.
had and love my syntakt, didn't know how to do ctrl all, this was a perfect tutorial! :) your jam sounded dope as hell
That's awesome to hear, thanks 😁 Glad it helped and was enjoyable!

@@ericmumper5608 It certainly is a fun way to get some randomized inspiration!

That’s a very nice way to create and kickstart creativity with happy accident 🙏 (currently taking notes 📝😉).
It is a fun thing to do for sure and you never know where you'll end up 🎉
Very cool! Ctrl All is da bomb!
Thank you! Yeah it's literally the best 🙌
Very, very cool stuff.
I'm glad you think so, thank you for watching! 🙌
These are insanely helpful thank you!
That is super kind of you to say, very happy to hear you enjoy them!

You have gigantic hands. Were you ever in Seinfeld..?
LOL yes you caught me

@@robbiep742 Thank you, I'm glad you found my videos useful :) Yup it's an uphill battle! But it's fun to do and watch it slowly grow 🪴
Production value is good enough for me, especially since what he's showing us is unique info from the other channels. Just my 2 cents
@@peladoclaus Always room to grow though! But I'm happy you are content with where I'm at so far 👍
