The Joy Of Repeating Riffs Over Changing Chords

video upload by EZBOT

"When I first started writing songs it was all about a cool guitar riff over a strait bassline or a solid chord progression. It's the best feeling, it's so simple and satisfying. Let's lean into it and talk about it while using the M8 Tracker."

Tonverk: Subtractive Synthesis Explained

video upload by EZBOT

"The Tonverk isn't just a sampler or multi-sampler, it's a synthesizer that can play single cycle waveforms polyphonically. This coupled with wavefolding, distortion, rectification, and modulators.. you have a very powerful synthesizer. Let me explain.."

Digitakt II: Synthesis and Noise Only

video upload by EZBOT

"Can you make a decent sounding pattern on the Digitakt II with only Oscillators and Noise only? In this video, we dive deep into the factory utilities on the Elektron Digitakt 2 to see just how far the internal engine can be pushed. All sounds (drums, chords, leads etc.) will be made using fun and clever sampler techniques."

Which Elektron Sampler Should You Get?

video upload by EZBOT

"What is the difference between the Digitakt II, Octatrack MK2, and the Tonverk? While all Elektron samplers offer similar workflows, they each lean into different musical concepts. We will also discuss the learning curve of each and why you might choose one over the others. There are technically four samplers available from Elektron, but for this comparison, we will omit the Analog Rytm since it functions more as a synthesizer than a sampler. If you have questions, feel free to ask them in the live chat!"

"I am working on a live set that never ends and it surrounds the 'deep' vibe. Chord stabs, washed out pads, stretched vocals, big echo's, and groovy performance effects."

"If you have been searching for a great granular synthesizer or atmospheric powerhouse, look no further. The Elektron Tonverk was updated recently with several new features but the big standout for music producers, is the new Granular Synthesis engine called GRAINS. It sounds absolutely amazing paired with abundance of modern effects included in the Tonverk."

TR-1000: Thoughts, Discussion, and Production

video upload by EZBOT

"The TR-1000 is a strange and wonderful machine that constantly has me returning to the manual to see if it can do 'this or that' and often finding out it can do most things you throw at it. How does it compare to an Elektron machine? How does it sound? Is the workflow clunky or is it smooth? Could this be an addition to your setup or a stand alone machine? All this and more, this time on 120 minutes. Additionally we will talk smack about the OP-XY while also drooling on it at the same time. My favorite combo."
