Thanks Mike, that's very kind of you. Stay safe out there!

Oh hi there friends!

This makes me very happy, staying true to my natural born genre: cleaning house. :D

Ha thanks - I get that a lot. I don't know why I am this way - but it's how the gawdz 3d printed me.

Everyone loves a good turnaround!

Isn't she a beauty 😊

🚀

Thanks my friend! Far from perfect, but we strive!

A lot of time and studying of your machines will reward you if you are passionate about it. I will say this guy is very good. I have been jamming for 20 years and its got to be in your soul.

Thanks my friend! Hope you're awesome out there, miss our chats! ;)

@@EhsanGelsi Me too buddy :)

You are!

Thx for stopping by!

For better or worse, I think I do, no matter how much I try to escape it 👻

I know I need to move on, I think about it all the time, but it's such a satisfying bass sound innit!!! I save it a few ways so I can recall different levels of BEOWWW for dynamics and have the triggered s&h filter versions for when it needs to really drive along and it just writes itself! Thanks - I never demoscened myself but I love that shit.

Ha, thanks for the deep dive! It has been too long - and I been super frustrated by my laziness. But hey, I'm back, and you found something to do in my absence!

Hey! I'm glad you're enjoying the music. There's nothing scary here, it's much simpler than a DAW setup, it's just a bit more visceral I spose! I think I threw this together over just a couple of days or so. :)

It's super easy if you put your mind to it! KZfaq is amazing - all the knowledge is there for free thanks to all the wonderful community members sharing their wisdom. It certainly isn't rocket science, and if you're looking for a fun hobby that'll last you for a lifetime just jump in! :)

Oh yes!

I guess I do pick a key when I start, but then it's game on from there, I try to keep it spicy by moving from, around and back to the original key to create the tension and release through the sets. It's part music composition, part amateur math quiz, part paint by numbers. I love it! Thx for tuning in :)

Ehsan Gelsi Sounds great keep them coming!

The Pro 1 is going through the Meris Polymoon and Mercury7. The Summit is only using its built in effects in this video.

Thx! Yep bass from the Summit. Pro 1 is ridgey didge, cv all the way!

Ehsan Gelsi man, your tracks and patterns are out of this world. Never a dull tone, really great patterns, minor scales, just really great, and i love how the melodic arp tones tend to blend in the paddy ambient of the summit , or is that also an effect on the pro one doing that tail? By the way, what is ridgey didge?

Oh and a lovely ode to aphex twin at around 21 min or so

Digitakt

Yeah, what Chris said!

Frikkin YES!

I freakin love it. It's like more-more-more Peak, and I fkn love the Peak. It's just absolutely awesome, and sounds like whatever you want it to - modern and angular or vintagey and plump. Desert island stuff!

@@EhsanGelsi high praise indeed. I think the Oxford oscillators will be looked back on as a game changer in years to come.

It's funny, cos the OB6 is my main keyboard in my band, but I've never used it in one of these videos. Perhaps I should eh? :D

Yes, Please 😊

​@@EhsanGelsi :Wow! That is a revelation. I'm an OB6 fan (own one) and glad to see its one of the main boards you use in your band. That said, the Peak(s) is a staple in these incredible Digitak videos. Talent on display ;)

Yes sir, and yes sir 👍

I feel you, reverb is hard, sometimes best avoided. some pedals/plugins make it easier than others. Sometimes use just a touch of reverb to get the harshness out of a sound but like it doesn't sound like it's actual reverb. If using mics try to see what the actual room sounds like and if that reverb will do and remember it will compete with a reverb on a pedal and change its tone as opposed to going direct into daw with that stomp box. for ambient etc textures almost defined by reverb the key there is to reduce the harmonies and melodies to a strict minimum of voices and spread them out on the keys. also for this same genre of music reduce the note events. let the long crazy morphing reverb do their magic on single notes or two-note intervals. do not use reverb on bass especially when chord above it is complex. try slapback delay instead of reverb. get the mix perfect before adding reverb to the tracks, ask yourself if reverb will be necessary at all. don't add reverb to a mix. less is more except if you're making cathedral canyon shimmery stuff. The smaller one of the strymon reverb pedals, the one without the screen, is definitely sweeter to my ears. try all the aforementioned rules then break them.

No audio interface - it's all just recorded straight out of the headphone output on the mixer into the line-in on the side of my camera, a little cheapo Zoom Q2n.

Ehsan Gelsi oh come on, it sounds great! No compression or limiter?

@@BargenMusic I'm using the SSL bus compressor on the mixer, and using the 2 channel compressors and EQ's on channels 1&2 to spice up the Digitakt. Beyond that I just hard limit and give a bit of turd polish broad EQ lifting the highs and lows on the stereo file in the video software when I chop it down - that's it!

🏍🏍🏍

No way! I gotta motivate and run it up with the summit for 3 part 8-voice peak mega total ultimate unstoppable fatality orsm!

@@EhsanGelsi ha ha, can't blame a guy for trying... ;-) Really enjoyed those vids you did a while back with DT/DN/Peak, got me GASsing for a Peak now...

I can't believe the difference it's made!

It’s been a minute, few months at this point I think.

it may be a little late for a reply....yet what mixer did you use? and all sequenced from the digitakt? you are so talented mate. Thankyou!!!
