Korg Volca Beats and Bass gets Mangled by Elektron Octatrack

  • Elektron Octatrack real-time sampling and mangling the Korg Volca units. www.elektron.se...
    I wanted to show how the Elektron Octatrack can take any audio and manipulate it in real time. Korg Volca Beats and Bass are routed into the Octatrack's stereo inputs separately. By pressing YES on the Octatrack, I can capture the incoming audio and start mangling and re-arranging the recorded loop on the Octatrack. Sending MIDI out from Octatrack into Volca Beats and sync out into the Volca Bass.
    I have created 2 Parts inside the Octatrack. Part 1 has got THRU machines where I can add FX to incoming audio. Part 2 has 2 Flex recording buffers assigned to it. So, I record the incoming audio on Part 1 and start manipulating the recording on Part 2.
    Personally, I found the Volca Beats very limiting and the overall sound is not for me. The Bass one however is satisfying...
    But for the price of them you can't go wrong.

      He is boss......you and he both have totally sold me on Elekton's gear, I just need my bank account to co-operate ;) I'm a massive Volca fan as well, and your name has come up quite often (along with links to your OP-1 and Elektron videos) in the Korg Volca Facebook group. Have you ever played around with the Volcas? If so, what did you think? Would love to see a Cuckoo Volca jam :)

    • @truecuckoo
      @truecuckoo 10 років тому +6

      He he.. Thansk. I didn't know that :) Actually, I've never touched the Volcas. They sound like fun. I should try them out at some point! They're just getting more and more!

    It definitely does.And it is a lot cheaper than shelling out for the vintage boxes.. lol @ paying 3k for an 808 now that Volcas are (almost) here! You'd have to have money to burn to bother with any of those old boxes after this... seriously

    I have the korg sequencer (bottom right) retails at $200 NZD - Its a funky little tool don't get me wrong, but you are very restricted with what you can do, I would not recommend buying it.

      Mr Loop FX i just bought both of em , the volca bass hass power init you just need to jam it and discover it , i also have FL Studio wich alows me to virtually add effects to the bass sounds wich can make these verry .. verry unique !

    Maybe you will laugh but I FEEL that many of these tricks you can do with carefull tweaking and looping of KP3. Elektrons have high class echo/reverb thing but you can approach this way of doing things a little bit cheaper.
    Someone want to try? :)

  • @isaacanthonydj4124
    @isaacanthonydj4124 2 роки тому

    So in PART2 is where all of the audio buffers are getting re seqeunced is where the crazy glitch is happening? because when it's all in the buffer, you can mangle audio even futher than just delay, you can reverse the sample, or pick different parts of the sample to trig lock, and it's all be pre setup, so once you record into the audio buffer, whaever scene you assign reverse playback it's doing that automatically to the newest audio recorded into buffer?

    cant go wrong with korg, ALL my real time audio is from a korg triton le, and also my drum kits played through just an sr202, but with a mixture of kiks,snares and so forth from the triton. The rest is a mixture of vst inst downloaded for cubase. Please check out my latest track theindustryfinalmix. This is really GOOD. nice 1

  • @MyOneManBand
    @MyOneManBand 11 років тому

    Can you explain what you mean by pre sliced? do you mean you slice your grid "over silence" before you record any incoming audio and the save this, which then lets you resample from the inputs and have THAT audio automatically cut into 16 slices ready to re-arrange? if so that is the best new trick I have learnt !!!

      when you go back to part one and you're taking out the trigs that you put down in part2 what are the trigs doing, until you take them out, since they don't have a sample attached to them anymore?
