I finally cracked the code on understanding parts. Thanks to @strangestrains5295 for putting the bug in my head about them (bit.ly/3FoyQxI) // This will be the live setup for sure now. I'll add a midi controller for controlling the OT tracks, but this is the heart of it all. So lets talk about how i'm putting stems into the Octatrack from Ableton Live.

Ableton is super flexible in its export. You can choose to export only selected channels for selected time periods, export as 16-Bit 44.1kHz, and normalize. This is handy when capturing stuff for the Octatrack. I typically do 8 or 16 bar loops,(stuff like chopping and startpoint get less and less accurate the larger your file is!) and I can do an unlimited number of tracks in one go this way.

I use the crap outta everything in the OT including parts. It’s the only way I can do my live set (lots of live instruments ie guitar/bass/vocals). Main thing is that parts let you change so much from pattern to pattern (machines/fx/lfo’s/etc). It’s weird to me seeing ppl not use, what to me, is a very integral part of the device. Same thing with the arranger (one of THE most powerful aspects of the OT)

hey @RickyTinez another tip in case you didn't know that yet: you can "give up" one of your PARTS per bank,... to use as a "reload" part. That means, if you reserve PART 4 for this, and you are playing a song that is on PART 1,... you could C&P PART 1 in PART 4, swap to PART 4,... do a bunch of changes in PART 4 (like if you are trying to a buildup or something),... and then when you want to go reload back to zero (as you would do in the Digi with Func + NO) you can simply swap back to PART 1.

@dudemanxx
@dudemanxx Жыл бұрын
This was helpful for me because I also tend to think of parts like "versions" of patterns, rather than a necessary home for all the things that make a pattern useful. So in a composition setup, maybe you make patterns up until you need a new part to proceed, or you plan your bank around the parts available to you and make patterns accordingly. But yeah, using parts almost like scenes was not the way to go, and I was doing it for a while.

Parts = STEM (scenes, track params, effect assignment, machine config), and there’s a nice clear diagram near the beginning of the manual showing this. I was confused when I first wanted to learn how to use them, but there is no better description of them (and most of the rest of how to use the OT) than in the manual.

Woah, that one sentence where you said you did it backwards with the parts. THIS is what made me finally understand it, because I had the exactly same way of thinking: "why would I put different samples onto a pattern?". But approaching it the other way around makes total sense. So could you say: in a bank, you have up to four parts, which serve as alternative configurations you can make use of when building a pattern inside that bank? Because if yes, I finally understood it. Thank you so much!

I use Parts like this: Every Bank houses two songs. Pattern 1-8 and Parts 1-2 are reserved for one song and Pattern 9-16 and Parts 3-4 are reseverved for the othe song. I like two have the flexibilty of having two parts per song. So far so good: 16 Banks x 2 Songs = 32 Songs, right? Yes, if you don't use a Digitakt (or Digitone in my case) along side the Octatrack. Because the smaller Boxes can only have 8 Banks. Crazy stuff... ;) Happy Jamming!

I've used parts since the start because they allow to have variations of patterns...was surprised that most of the people did not used them...I still haven't figure out how to benefit 16 patterns in a live setup configuration when patterns in a same bank are independant and linked to each other. Right now i use to store one songe in one banks. Each song made of one pattern with 4 variations (4 parts ) per track...All the different groovebox/Sequencer/synth i've used (MPC, Roland MC, polyend tracker, Analog four, analog rytm) were for me much more simple to use for live setup. Sometimes i feel the Octatrack lack of fluidity and push you to find shortcuts to get a simple task done. it's a powerfull tool but not an quick and easy to use

Parts use the same samples with different effects blocks. Each part uses different effects. If you break it into pattern 1-4 part 1, patterns 5-8 part 2, etc. you can have 4 variations with different effects (not to mention scenes. The samples live in the banks, the trigs live in the patterns, the effects live in the parts. So much OT, so little time. Good luck with the gig. For stems at a live show I would stick to 1 part for simplicity. On each new song just go to the next bank, 16 more patterns with the new samples for that song. Your channel rocks 🤘

Hey Ricky! Super useful info. One thing I encountered before is that rendering Ableton stems at 48khz resulted in the time stretching not working properly on the Octa (mk1), since I think it expects 44.1khz. With your method of drag and dropping stems straight from Ableton, do you also need to configure Ableton's global settings to 44.1?

@rittikwystup9343 Жыл бұрын
Also be sure to have your samples in 16 or 24 bit - watch out for frozen tracks since they can be 32 bit. Then, the Octatrack can't load the file. If you want to use frozen samples from Ableton, convert to 24 or 16 bit before. If you're on Mac, there is a command-line tool called ffmpeg which can do this for you :)

Couldnt you just use the OT in disk mode instead of having the cf reader?

i still don't get the usage case for parts in the live scenario. an electronic live set with, say, 12 separate works is probably going to get you close 90mins+ show - which is a lot. parts add yet another layer of mental foldering needed. the 1 work per bank and 16 patterns per bank is way enough (+scenes!) . the only thing i can think of is to use as a base to snap back to (like the pattern reload on Digi) if you mangle fx during the performance. somehow if it would help me with the stress of transitioning between banks, am open ears.

I think the point is if you want to be more spontaneous and have more songs to choose from, it gives you more songs in the project. Some people like to "read the crowd" and adjust their set.

I try it very short: Banks have Patterns in them. Patterns are assigned to Parts. Think of Parts as a "Machine Preset". Sampler, Live-Looper, FX-Box, what do you want? You can also save parts for having presets. Octa is a long journey!!!

AR and A4 have Parts too, 16 of them per Bank. They're called Kits. OT has 4 per Bank. A Kit is nothing more than a place to store instrument configurations (Track configurations on OT). DT and DN have them too, kits. They are automatically loaded and saved with each Pattern. On DT/DN you can't user save them though for use with other Patterns. That's a deliberate design choice.

I think when parts are so versitile elektron needs to develop the arranger or maybe the purpose with the octatrack is let go and go with the flow…😅

Why not just not loop your stems and parameter lock your stems to your play trig? Every time the pattern loops, your stem gets re-triggered and it stops when the stem ends.

I am fortunate to have Elektron Rytm and Four but I just CANNOT even deal with the Octatrack. Octa sure seems amazing but way too consuming for this audio hobbyist with limited music time.

Ricky I'm sorry to tell you this, but I don't think you actually understood parts. However, what you're saying is true and works as long as you only use stems and one trigger per track per pattern
@SchleimKeim77
@SchleimKeim77 Жыл бұрын
I also want to add that you could achieve the exact same thing with sample locking your 1trig/track/pattern while using only one part. That way you would have the three other parts for breaks and effects.

@@victor.b4529 a pattern only saves triggers. Everything else is the part.... Machines, effects, volume settings, that's all the 'part'. He doesn't need parts for his setup, since all he changes is the triggered sample. Which can be achieved with sample trigs alone.
