Dual Octatrack Madness: Granular Sampling Is Wild

video upload by EZBOT

"What's better than one Octatrack? Two, of course. In today's live stream we use my battery powered Octatrack run the Octacosm project which will be processing the OP-1 Field. The Octacosm is an Octatrack Template that turns the Octatrack into a granular effects processor which is great for processing synthesizers. We will be sampling into the Digitakt and making some music from scratch.

Destroying Chords and Arps In My Elektron DIgitakt

video upload by EZBOT

"Sampled chord progressions don't need to progress anywhere, they can become pads, grains, or sample chains. In today's stream we talk about why pairing a synthesizer with your sampler is the best resource for getting a track started no matter what the genre.

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."

Techno From Scratch, Dial Up That Rumble Bass!

video upload by EZBOT

"We're about to embark on an exciting journey as we craft techno music entirely from scratch. Our creative arsenal includes the Octatrack MK2, Digitakt, Digitone, and Syntakt, all working in harmony to produce some mind-bending sounds.

What adds an extra layer of magic to our performance today is my newest Octatrack template "Techno Performance Mixer 1.0.1," the latest addition to my Patreon offerings and soon to be available on Ko-Fi. This performance template for the Octatrack not only provides master clocking, 8 bar auto-modulated effects, 8 bar loops, and many other features that will undoubtedly take our music to the next level.

Our journey begins with a rumbling foundation, achieved through a unique resampling technique. We'll also be diving into an intriguing side-chain ducking trick, which I shared with you all last week. It's going to be an immersive and educational experience, so let's get started and delve into the world of techno creation.

The Amorphic Process of Hardware Songwriting

video upload by EZBOT

"In this video, we dive into the unique and ever-evolving process of music creation. Don't be fooled, complexity isn't always the key to a hit track. Embrace the basics, keep it simple and let the music tell its story. Remember, there's no need to fear the basic ideas. Simple concepts can often turn into your greatest hits! Your need for complexity shouldn't ruin a good song. Remember, there's no need to fear the basic ideas. Simple concepts can often turn into your greatest hits! Your need for complexity shouldn't ruin a good song. Working with a rich lineup of hardware including the Elektron Octatrack (w/ FX template), Digitakt, Digitone, Syntakt, the Roland VT-4 vocoder, and the Roland TB-03, we explore how the 'limitations' of these tools can actually enhance the songwriting process.

What This Music Genre Needs Is.. Restraint

video upload by EZBOT

"Today, we're embarking on an adventure of sonic exploration, using some of the most iconic hardware from Elektron: the Digitakt, Digitone, Syntakt, and Octatrack.

This journey is not just about the destination - the creation of a track - but also about my personal challenge to master the minimalist ethos of techno: the principle that 'less is more'. As someone who typically gets swept away by the allure of complex melodies, the stripped-back nature of minimal techno has always been an enigma, a puzzle that I've long wanted to solve.

In this video, you'll see my attempt at channelling restraint, focusing on simplicity over complexity, and discovering the depth that lies in subtlety. This is more than a step-by-step guide; it's an honest portrayal of my struggle and growth as a music producer. So, whether you're an experienced beatmaker, an aspiring artist, or just curious about the process of minimal techno creation, I hope you'll join me on this challenging, yet exciting, exploration of sound.
