Making a Tonverk Techno Rumble + other things

video upload by Abre Ojos

"The first thing I like to do on a new box is make a techno rumble. I learn a lot about a machine like this as I have a goal in mind and I can explore all the options. Here is one way to do it. I also live route the Pulsar 23 Bass channel through the TOnverk and apply a bunch of effects. And then sample the Pulsar and feed the Grainer. Finally add a Pulsar snare sample and make some weird hi hats. The video starts with the final result and then the making journey. And yeah yeah, OS 1.30 but in Australia I woke up to that so this is the final video that will ever be on OS 1.21.
