Hi Pink Buddha, hope you're doing well! Nice video, I am actually looking to buy this kind of mixer, and the tascam was a candidate for my setup, I'm happy to find your video! You have already helped me in the past =)

I wasn't at all impressed by the pianos, or the rhodes, in the Fabric XL bundle, sounds like outdated workstation sounds, flat, dead, and with no dynamics whatsoever....

Just got a Force, so thanks for your vids on it 👍 PS: While I was just listening to you playing the New Beginnings preset at ~1:38 in our garden, a butterfly couple came along spiralling their way. What a serendipity moment ✌🏼🦋🎶

Amazing playing!

im not paying 950+ for sketching out an idea. the fuck.

Can I connect a tablet or a display to the wavestate?

Does it offer live stems separation nowadays for audio recorded samples in the Akai Force?

Does the Force have MIDI LFO like octatrack? coudn't find this information.

I absolutely love FM, I just wish there were more pure FM sounds in the presets but I get it and they do sound pretty good on average. The range of sound you can get is just so wide with FM it completely blows away analog in my book. I like analog too but FM is just way more useful but can be tough to go for specific sounds sometimes I think it's best to do dedicated sound design sessions with FM but maybe that's my inexperience talking. I mean I've done a fair amount of programming FM, but not nearly enough to have that kind of knowledge at least to where I can just imagine a sound and program it, I can take it in directions sure that's mainly how I go with FM, pick a general direction and see where it ends up

I like the text bubble thing you have going on, nice touch

THANKs a lot for your work. Very helpfull ❤

Great review! As a consumer, when you buy software and hardware, it would be great if you just plugged it in and everything would be mapped out and working properly. I get real disappointed when it doesn't and you spend hours trying to make them work together. I know some do but just when those times they don't. 🤦‍♂

Autant il y a des presets sublimes que d'autres 😮 horribles et injouables !! Dommage

The cons seem like a deal breaker for me

I like your style brother

Hi Pink Buddha, is the Push 3 still worth it in June 2024?

so many interesting plugs that could be ported to MPC standalone but they went and acquired Air of all things :shrug:

Id like to see Akai reach out and lift up some of the more deserving designers like Szabo and Sonic Charge

most of the Air stuff is pretty awful

What scale was you using when playing emotional case

Is it possible to sample songs with iphone? Like with an adapter? I want to get one but i dont have a computer

I had to individually reload each sample and then save as a new project on the force then it worked

1 is moogalicious! rest are very fun and soooo unusable 😂 once I tried those colorful children oriented Moog Studio presets …. I like making music more khe, khe …… wait, was that book coming with Model D is with presets? Maybe RTFM 🎉

Its so bright sounding compared to moogs.

beautiful sounds

Should I get the rytm now? Or wait for a new one? Or do u think they will ever make a new one?

Cool I’ve watched similar videos on this and they just run through it. Thanks 👍🏾

Is Fabric XL also available for the 37?

Ok I have a question I have not been able to figure out. There are 128 Midi tracks. I don't need that many but lets say I wanted 24 tracks. Does that mean I could record 24 tracks from hardware synths or would an external hardware synthesizer be an audio track?

My hard drives are crying 👀 👄

Hello, You play amazing! I am loving it. BTW I have one question. What is the model of the midi keyboard you are playing in the video? I would like to search some demo of that. Any response will be great! 🙏

How did you get the name Pink Buddha?

What are the limitations to this keyboard? I heard you can only load 8 tracks while in keyboard workstation mode?

I watched this years ago, but forgot that the knobs could be use in the step sequencer mode to change parameter values 13:25. I like you I play my parts in & then used the List editor. I never use the Step Seq mode, but now I got a reason!

Brilliant video dude. I'm buying that. Amazing!!!

Copelandia Marcato (around 22:40 ) sounds like a homage to Stuart Copeland's Fairlight (I think) based set up from the mid 80s, which can be heard in The Equalizer (original series) .

Dope. Could I do the same thing with the Moog matriarch. Waiting on one to come in

If you look at the updates from push 2 release to when push 3 were released, this is pretty much all your going to get and any update with be a fix rather than a massive addition or something it just should have in standalone. When you compare the force to the push 3, you realize that a lot of your wishlist could have been implemented but wasn’t. Meaning that the functionality exist as a standalone device already. Kind of like buying a sampler and only being able to import samples on an SD card. I’ve always wanted a push but just felt like the functionality was never truly standalone or even “no need to look at the screen” like the live software or even maschine in most cases.

You can turn off fixed pad velocity if you want touch sensitivity

Sadly the Force is the clear stand alone winner. I liked Maschine better but needed the force to make complete songs. The Force is the winner if you want to work without a computer. You didn't mention audio quality and bugs. The force has bugs that are un explainable but the quality of the sound is very good. I have produced a whole album WITHOUT a computer using the force and it sounds better then most of what I hear out there.

Thanks for these videos! Very helpful

Its Rytm, not Rythm ;-)

I had a mk1 years ago and I really loved the pad perform mode, but the analog drum voices were pretty crap IMHO. I think my Electron Analog 4 actually makes better drum voices.

You're killing it on bank C dude. Amazing

My favorite drum machine, and I've owned plenty in my day. Analog Rytm MK2 never leaves my desk. You probably know this, but the "fix" button at the top will give you velocity options for the pads.

pad is great DAW IS complicated

I just love the Moog lol, copped this for supercheap, have the Arturia Moog and im also thinking of getting a Behringer too - i just cant get enoooough

Thanks for doing this video. ❤it really shows off the variety of possible sounds. I fine these old-school sounds so soothing.

Can the Force be used for Frippertronics?
