The M8 Tracker Is Absolutely Unstoppable

video upload by EZBOT

"The M8 Tracker is my all-time favorite portable groovebox. I've used it in several commercial productions and plan to use it for many more that are already in the pipeline. Why do I love it? Its workflow lets me program music in a linear song format—without the scope creep and clicky mania that comes with working in a DAW. For anyone who wants to write a song without being tied to a computer, there's no instrument I recommend more than the M8 Tracker by Dirtywave. Today we explore some new BETA features that really do up the power this tiny box has to offer."

Rhodonea II

video upload by John C.S. Keston

"This video is a new interpretation of Rhodonea (Rhodonea II) that I performed for SEAMUS (the Society for Electroacoustic Music in the US) at Purdue University on Saturday, March 22, 2025.

The animated, generative, graphic score developed with Processing.org sends corresponding MIDI data to an electronic, hardware instrument called the Dirtywave M8 #dirtywavem8 #dirtywave (https://dirtywave.com/). A previous interpretation of the piece ( • Rhodonea: Radical Futures Performance... [posted here] ) used Ableton Live 12 synths including Meld.

The piece serves as a model of how we might collaborate with near future synthetic entities. Software feeds automated, algorithmic, projected visual cues, tempi, and low frequency oscillations to improvising electronic musicians. The visuals, based on Maurer Roses, suggest melodic, harmonic, and percussive gestures that are modulated by data streaming from the generative animations. Throughout the piece the artist adapts to the familiar yet unpredictable graphic scores and corresponding signals.

Note: please watch in full screen and listen on headphones or high fidelity stereo speakers. More details about this video are available at https://audiocookbook.org/video-rhodo...

I hope I can work out all the details in the next few weeks!"

Ride Xor Die ( Dirtywave M8 )

video upload by Avrilcadabra

"Hi new track, old M8's

Thought I'd give my model 01's some love. I do love how much customization the model 01 has. M8 Firmware 5.0 just released this week so I thought It a good oppurtinity to show the real time limiter graphics on a second M8."

Is The M8 Tracker Good For Programming Dub Techno?

video upload by EZBOT

"In today's episode we take the Dirtywave M8 Tracker to the land of deep delays, washed out chords, and noise soundscapes. I want to see how quickly and how intuitively this device can make and perform Dub Techno.

Investing In Your DAWLESS Workflow PAYS OFF

video upload by EZBOT

"I have spent countless hours trying to figure out the perfect workflow.. does it even exist? Today we are going to discuss workflow, technique for sampling, effects processing, and trying to stick to our intuition. On the table we have a Digitakt II, M8 Tracker, Synthstrom Deluge, Melbourne Delia, and the Headrush Core for vocals and guitar."

Double The Power Of Your Hardware With A Good Controller

video upload by EZBOT

"Today, we’re going to check out the SHIK MIDI Controller and how it works. The SHIK has some special features that you don’t usually find on other controllers, especially at its price. These features include Macro controls and MIN/MAX control, which let you customize your grooveboxes way more than a basic MIDI controller. I’ve paired it with the Octatrack Performance Mixer 3.0 Template to show you exactly what I mean.

In Flight Entertainment - Hologram Microcosm + Dirtywave M8

video upload by Arman Bohn

"I recently was on a nine hour flight after a three hour layover after a two hour flight. At one point during the flight, I was in dire need of sleep so I grabbed my M8 and cobbled together a generative 'sleep scape'.

Here, I am adding some Microcosm magic. It is always a pleasure to explore the Microcosm!

It didn’t work for me … maybe it will for you?
