"Check out AniModule's Line to Synth Level Converter.
2 Channels of 1 in <--> 2 Out.
Each channel is designed to multiply your input by *3 to boost your Line Gear / Tablet / Phone so you can integrate audio OR Control Voltages from your auxiliary systems.
Each channel's input is designed with Line Level gear's input impedance in mind.
Perfectly compatible with Synth Output Impedances, but the standard Synth Input Impedance is higher than Line level equipment is expecting.
Don't need to amplify your XPhone right this minute?
Never fear! Just Hit the Switch!
This module won't sit unused in your cabinet breeding resentment and dust bunnies.
Hit the switch and that channel becomes a normal 2 HP Unity Gain Buffered Mult.
Only need one channel of each? It's YOUR Choice"
The beat consists of Roland TR808/TR606 combo with Roland SH101 for bass, and SH101s in the chorus lead, with the breakdown featuring an Arturia Minibrute."
Kenza Farah - "Toi Et Moi" (Elektron Octatrack + Analog Four Remix)
Published on May 31, 2015 Paul Shemyakin
Second track below.
"This is my remix of the very sentimental song “Toi Et Moi” written by my favorite French singer – Kenza Farah.
The remix was created using hardware synthesizer and sampler - Elektron Analog Four + Elektron Octatrack DPS-1. No software was used for remix creation, performance and recording. Yes, these Swedish Elektron machines can be used for creating the complete pop-music composition :)
This is a short description of how it’s been made. During the composition only 15 patterns are used. Octatrack & Analog Four are synced for pattern changes. Octatrack is in Arranger Mode (automatically switches patterns for me).
Tracks:
A. Elektron Octatrack (15 patterns, 6 scenes):
TR1: Kick + Clap / One Shot Samples, FX - Filter+Dark Verb
TR2: Hats
TR3: Sliced Loop (different slices&locks per step, linear slice locks function was used for cutting and rearranging the drum loop)
TR4: Pad (loop)
TR5: “Toi Et Moi” original track (Piano+Vocal only), stretched by Octatrack to 95 bpm.
TR6: FX slices from original track + Periodical Additional Melodic/Reversed Loops + Crash (Crash is programmed with one shot triggers, activated by Function+YES during performance)
TR7: Additional loop – Acoutic Drums & Breaks Loops
TR8: Master Track (FX1 – Filter, FX2 – compressor in parallel, mix 50/50)
B. Elektron Analog Four (15 patterns):
TR1: Pluck Lead
TR2: Arp/Pluck Lead
TR3: Bass
TR4: Lead
+ 3 performance mode settings (A: TR1+TR2 filter opening/closing, B: TR3 filter opening + decay time, C: TR4 – Filter Opening+Reverb Send Amount)
Original track is from Kenza Farah’s album Authentik.
Thank you, Kenza, for the inspiration and great song!
Lots of Respect from Moscow, Russia. ;)
Enjoy! ;-)"

Good overview on this one.
"SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
Remix starts at 3:00! (please, skip my bla-bla-bla).
This track is the example that you can make the whole track using only two devices, and the Octatrack can be used as DAW - playing beats, vocal samples, doing some midi sequence.. Very cool, magical device!

"It's a holiday in my part of Germany today, I went partying last night and worked on these ideas when I got home, i'll probably do a proper recording of the best ideas in the video.
I'm really enjoying the machines I bought recently they're really working out for me. There's a Vermona DRM, TR-9090 and Waldord Blofeld. I also use the midi router which was also bought recently, to switch the 202s/Kento's midi input between the RS7000 and the xOxbOx.
And one more thing, sorry for the lame dancing about in my chair thing! I just got in the zone and forgot myself, perhaps I made a bit of a tit of myself, but I hope you can at least see that I had great fun recording this one."
