Elektron Machinedrum MkII sound design exploration#elektron #dawless #dnb


video upload by HANJŌ

"The sound of a drumset played in different environments can vary significantly due to acoustics and the surrounding space. After my visit to Berlin I got inspired by an artist presentation of this kind of studies in the form of audiovisual installations and I decided to use it as a start point for a new release.

Drumset Played Floating in the Air:

Characteristics: When a drumset is played in a vast open space, such as floating in the air with no physical boundaries nearby, the sound tends to be more expansive and diffuse.

Reverberation: The lack of physical surfaces to reflect sound waves means that there is minimal reverberation and echo. As a result, each drum hit may sound isolated and clear without blending into a larger ambient sound.

Transience: The attack and decay of each drum hit are distinct and easily discernible, as there are no surfaces for the sound to bounce off and create overlapping reverberations.

Spatial Perception: The spatial perception of the drumset's sound is more spread out, giving a sense of the individual drum and cymbal sounds existing in their own sonic space without much interference.

Drumset Inside a Cave:

Characteristics: When a drumset is played inside a cave or any enclosed space with reflective surfaces, the sound takes on a different character.

Reverberation: The cave's surfaces, such as walls and ceilings, reflect sound waves, leading to a longer decay time and pronounced reverberation. This can create a rich, immersive sound environment.

Resonance: Certain frequencies may resonate more strongly within the cave, depending on its size and shape, leading to enhanced tonal characteristics for specific drum elements.

Depth and Texture: The reverberant nature of the cave adds depth and texture to the drumset's sound, blending individual hits into a cohesive wash of sound that can be quite dramatic and atmospheric.

Spatial Perception: The spatial perception of the drumset's sound is more compact yet enveloping, with the reverberations filling the space around the listener and creating a sense of being surrounded by the sound.

Overall, these descriptions highlight how the environment can significantly influence the perceived sound of a drumset, with factors such as reverberation, resonance, and spatial perception playing key roles in shaping the sonic experience."

Solar 42 anti-GAS therapy 💸


video upload by

"I created this song, that I named 'Drune', as a form of anti-GAS therapy with the respect to the Solar 42, where I set out to create an ambient piece with some form of drone bass together with a layer that used a 5-step sequence (the same number of steps that the Solar 42 sequencer has). I'm pleasantly surprised with how far I could get with the gear I already own.

I play the Expressive E Osmose live (using the factory patch called 'Stellaris') and send it to the Analog Four mkII where I add some reverb. The white noise and bass comes from a single, monophonic patch on the Analog Four mkII, where I play sustained drone notes utilizing all four voices. Everything then gets sent to the Syntakt where the additional elements are added, using a single pattern, before heading to the Analog Heat +FX for mastering. What you hear is recorded directly from the latter."

At The Mana Tree - Rainy Forest Village Loop (Ambient Fantasy Loop)


video upload by Yuki The Synth Dr

"Just an ambient fantasy loop I made. I use the Novation Peak with its build in effects. I use the Arturia Minifreak with the Strymon Brig and Cloudburst. The Elektron Model:Samples is being used for the rain effect playback. The rain samples are from 'SoundsForYou'. Use this track for D & D campaign BGM / background music or for what ever. I do not authorize use in ai training."

Who knows maybe it me haha! Either way, i'll take you through the compact dawless setup and show you how I plan to play live with it! Hopefully it all goes well"

OXI One New Tutorial FW 4.2: Learn the New SNAPSHOTS Feature


video upload by OXI Instruments

"Since firmware version 4.0, our focus has been on enhancing the OXI One sequencer's performative capabilities and introducing a couple of significant features. This video tutorial will cover the all-new Snapshots feature added in FW 4.2!

Snapshots allow you to temporarily save the state of all four sequencers and revert to that state after making any adjustments in your patterns, such as changes to notes, modulations, or sequencer settings like mute states.

It's perfect to create transitions in your performances.

Digitakt, Prophet 6, Prophet 12 Sessions


video upload by Mai

"A lot of improvisation on this one.
No mixing desk, the Prophet 6 and Prophet 12 went through the internal mixer and effects of the Digitakt.
Only factory samples were used on the Digitakt.
The output of the Digitakt was recorded into Logic Pro X via an A Designs Pacifica preamp and Apogee Duet 2 audio interface (with preamps bypassed)"

The UDO Super 6 paired with a reverb pedal is 🌈🦄🐧


video upload by Speldosa

"For this piece, named "Cooldown", I brought out my UDO Super 6 and paired it up with my Boss Reverb RV-6 for some reverb. Everything then goes through the Elektron Syntakt, which in turn sens everything to the Elektron Analog Heat +FX. What you hear is recorded directly from the Analog Heat +FX without any post-processing applied."

New Analog Heat +FX OS



via Elektron

"Ramp up the randomness with this new OS for Analog Heat +FX. 1.01 brings a handful of new features - several of which put the power of happy accidents at your fingertips. Play with parameter randomization, random name generation, LFO slew, momentary active, and enjoy a bunch of improvements that make your Heat +FX experience a little smoother.

Parameter randomization

Easily randomize parameter pages with the touch of a button in the pursuit of the left field. Then revel in the result, keep on searching, or dial it back.

Random name generator

Want to pour all your creativity and time into your sound but can’t stand the sight of untitled presets? We’ve got your back. Let the machine take over naming duty, and get set for unexpected results.

LFO slew

Smooth over your LFO transitions from one random position to another with slew. More slew lets you take your time with the switch and keep things less drastic.

Momentary active

Add to the unpredictability by toggling your Heat +FX Active or not. Cast whatever effect you want with ease, as long as you like.

Extra parameters

You have deeper output and audio control courtesy of a new output gain parameter added to the preset setup menu, and an FX to USB parameter added to the audio routing menu.

Plus more

There are also improvements to performance, navigation, and display. Check the release notes for a full list."

This Setup Has All You Need to Make Great Music


video upload by EZBOT

"In today's episode of Electron Talk, we take a look at the Octatrack, Digitakt, and Syntakt from both a music production and live performance perspective. Each of these three grooveboxes designed by Elektron is impressive on its own, but together, they offer unique features that complement each other's strengths and fill in the gaps where one may lack. However, they don't cover all the areas comprehensively, do they? That's where instruments like a vocal processor and a convenient polysynth come into the mix. Today, we will create techno from scratch, discuss sound design, and share our favorite gear for music production."
