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."

The Differences Between Model:Cycles and Model:Samples // Model:Cycles Tutorial

video upload by Elektron

"We dip our toes into Model:Cycles and Model:Samples in the most uncomplicated of ways, both in terms of where the similarities lie between the two siblings and explaining some of the key differences between them. We also look at where the strengths of this pair may lie in your Elektron and wider gear setup, and put together a simple sequence to demonstrate the spontaneous and accessible workflow of the devices.

Check out more about Model:Cycles, a six track FM based groovebox, and Model:Samples, a six track sample based groovebox."

Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about Elektron Syntakt. Is this member of the Elektron Dark Trinity just a rehash of recycled technologies taken from instruments like the Digitakt, Digitone, Model:Cycles, Octatrack, Analog Rytm and Analog Four?

Digitakt Machines // OS 1.50 Upgrade

video upload by Elektron

"Machines. The Digitakt way.

As found in Octatrack, Model:Cycles or Syntakt, the concept of Machines has now also reached Digitakt.

There are now several new ways to play back your sweet samples. This new OS 1.50 Upgrade brings four different Machines, all with their own different flavor. Repitch for automatic classic beat-matching, Werp for a little quirky old-school way of time warping, and Slice - to chop up your audio and placing the pieces back in any order you like. And finally Oneshot, your default Machine for playing your sample forward, backward or looped. Again, again, and again.

To top things up we also added a new way to record your samples. You can now set a fixed number of steps for your recording. And, Sample Rate Reduction that can be inserted before or after the filter. Just as gritty as you like it to be.

Go find out more and download this new tasty OS 1.50 Upgrade here: https://bit.ly/3IFttuq"

Digitakt OS 1.50 Upgrade Overview


"As found in Octatrack, Model:Cycles or Syntakt, the concept of Machines has now also reached Digitakt. In this tutorial, we explore the four Machines - Oneshot, Werp, Repitch, and Slice - that come with the OS 1.50 Upgrade.

We also cover some creative tools that allow you to push Digitakt’s sequencer and samples further. For example, using Trigless Trigs to parameter lock values without re-triggering samples, using random locks in Slice to get new rhythmic ideas, or using Werp to really pull apart samples and turn them into completely new elements."

NEW MACHINES! Digitakt Ginormous update OS 1.50

video upload by Dave Mech

"Another massive update for Digitakt. This time we get 3 new machine types, sample rate reduction, recording length setting and a couple of small yet useful improvements! In this video I go over the major new functions in detail. Enjoy!

PS: After I created this video a small change was made to the OS. On the sampling page the recording length setting is now situated on the right and the AUTO setting shown in this video is renamed to MAX."

"The Dreadnaught Factor" - Akai MPC X + Behringer 2600 Blue Marvin + ASM Hydrasynth + MINIFREAK...

video upload by Patrick Manderson

"'The Dreadnaught Factor' was recorded live early Saturday morning on January 21st 2023 using a MIDI sequencer, a room full of synthesizers and drum machines. Four analog mixers were used with a rack of outboard effects and mixed stereo. Mixing and automation was controlled by the sequencer directly to the synthesizers. The final reorded required manual muting of the of mixer channels to suppress the noise coming from some of the devices including the Korg Minilogue. The video was taken afterwards.

"The Dreadnaught Factor" was inspired by the box art of an early 80s video game for Intellivision. It featured a number of spaceships on a blue background much like the 2600 Blue Marvin featured in this music. The melody and chord arrangement originated from a short piece I created several years ago and later merged it with a small piece of unfinished music titled "Driod Mischief". I was pleased how the two sounded when arranged in this way. I look forward to finishing "Droid Mischief".

The Hydrasynth plays a few different roles in Dreadnaught, even doubling up with the BassStation adding filter modulations to the bass parts [3:23].

The Korg MS2000 never disappoints when you use its modulation sequencer and its charasmatic digital distortion. Several parts were played, twisting and swirling in the stereo field. Modulated tremolos off-rhythm and hypnotic.

Korg Minilogue XD has so much range - such a wide sweet spot of sound. Especially when you use the digital user oscillators. Resonating plucks and unnatural reverbs works well for my tastes.

The Behringer 2600 Blue Marvin and Model D is featured in the "Droid Mischief" part at [2:58].
The notes were played over MIDI. Volume modulation was controlled with CV from the *Akai Pro MPC X*.
The Model D ran through the inputs of the Roland TR8s for its Phaser effect. The TR8S did nothing else.

There are a few dark pad patches I re-use often on the Oberheim Matrix 1000 playing disonant chords throughout.

The Elektron Analog Rytm MkII provides most of the rhythms. Each of its 12 voices run on its own MIDI channel with a full complement of continuous controllers. Lots of CC modulation was used on some of the voices. The internal sequencer was not used. All notes and automation comes from the *MPC X*.

Arturia's MINIFREAK layered in a few bits throughout and is featured at the very end [6:11]. Macros were modulated from the *MPC X*.

Korg's Radias is 4 part multitimbral. On part #4 I keep a carefully curated drum kit synthesized with noise, sines and filters - mixed with some of the built in drum samples. Part #1 featured a vocal "ah-ha" patch [3:01] using one of the vowel waves, a formant insert effect and careful modulation of its dual filters.

My favorite guitar pluck patch on the Korg EX-8000 makes an appearance.

At the center of it all, the MPC X seemlesssly connects to everything and manages to keep all devices in perfect sync. As mentioned before - meticulous editing of MIDI events is a breeze and very comfortable over long editing sessions. Approximately 21 tracks were used including Control Voltage for the modulars.

Elektron MODEL SAMPLES and WIND QUARTET + bastl ikarie Perfomance and Review

video upload by the machine in the botanical garden

"Elektron MODEL SAMPLES + bastl ikarie and WIND QUARTET: Oboe, clarinet, bassoon and horn (assembled in the Cre8audio Nifty case). Perfomance and short review.
I have written the score with the Staffpad score player and editor. The library used for the wind sounds is Berlin woodwinds from Orchestral tools (Staffpad version).

The composition is titled: Painting XI

'Model:Samples' is the little brother of the Elektron family of sampling machines.
A sampler is a machine or software that can manipulate captured sounds.
The possibilities of sampling today are practically infinite and the variety of processes that can be carried out on the audio are very sophisticated.
'Model:samples' doesn't stand out for its sophistication, that's what its older brothers are for.
'Model:samples' stands out for combining not only the power and versatility of the specific sequencer of Elektron machines but also for its ease of use and immediate control.
Since how quickly and effectively it can become a musical instrument: Most of the mechanisms to variate any sound are within reach of a single movement of your hand. Your imagined ideas can be quickly consolidated into a result on the machine; as when you play a key on the piano or a string on the guitar.
I've converted the mono signal from the 'Model:sample' to a stereo one by letting it flow through the `Bastl Instruments´ 'Ikarie' filter. A dual-mode stereo filter whose gain has also given it a lot of color.
I did only make use of a single sample for this topic. One of those which the machine is factory-equipped with. But it has been enough for a wind quartet that aspired to become a quintet to sign it up on their team.
The full lineup of this quintette is now composed by a clarinet, an oboe, a horn, a bassoon and, finally, 'Model:samples'.
There must have been good harmony between them, since they have promised to meet more times in the future to play together in this very special garden, where things from yesterday, today and, perhaps at some point, tomorrow meet up together."
