TR-8 & Ableton Dark Techno Jam With Custom Samples

Please support me on my bandcamp: synthesisminimalis.bandcamp.com

Hello ladies & gentlemen! Ever wanted to use custom samples on your Roland Aira TR-8? Well, I sort of came up with a solution, all you need is your machine at hand, a usb cable, and Ableton Live. I myself have been looking all over the internet for something like this but couldn't find it anywhere so I decided to have a go myself...
It's basically a custom midi mapping for Ableton, I've set up a drum rack and mapped all the sliders and knobs accordingly, i.e compression and attack on the kick, etc...

Just make sure to drop your samples inside the simpler presets in the drum rack and NOT DIRECTLY TO A DRUM PAD, this will erase the mapping I've accomplished with my blood, sweat, and tears.
Even more fun will ensue if you've got an audio interface with multiple outputs handy, scatter your brains out with your custom samples using the built-in scatter effects, simply assign a pair of stereo-outs to your external inputs, then route all the internal drum sounds to one of the assignable outputs instead of the regular L/R outputs, then you just route the audio out through the Aira and back in, and voila, amygdala tickling sound effects that would put even the death star's lasers to shame!"

Dave Smith Instruments "In The Spotlight with the PRO 2" with iVardensphere

The second in Dave Smith Instruments' "In The Spotlight with the PRO 2" is with Scott Fox, aka iVardensphere, is up.

"Scott Fox is a unique quantity in the world of modern electronic music. Hailing from Edmonton Canada, his project ‘iVardensphere’ emerged from Fox’s desire to explore both heavy electronics and his love of world percussion, anchored by a love for deep sound design and crushing rhythms. That passion, combined with an ever-evolving and maturing production sensibility, have become the project’s trademarks. Over the course of five full-length albums and innumerable remixes, Fox has become one of the foremost live and studio musicians in North American industrial.

For all of its grandeur, Fox’s sound has proven remarkably fluid. Monolithic analogue synth bangers share space with simmering groove-based instrumental experiments, tribal industrial drum workouts and deep, textured ambiences.

There’s no mistaking the scope and gravity of an iVardensphere track when you hear it.

We sat down to talk with Scott about about how he’s using his Pro 2."
