Record Trig use cases

[Modraw]

Hi,

Few months back, I found a really interesting thread where someone said: “let’s be honnest, no one is using record trig elsewhere than on the first step” …

Another guy came and said : “ok here’s a list of awesome examples on how you could use the record trigs”

My knowledge of the OT was limited at that time but I feel ready for trying out some of the examples. Anyone remember the thread? I already tried googling as welle as searching on elektronauts with no luck

Don’t remember the thread, but you don’t have to use a great deal of your imagination to see how using record trigs somewhere other than the first step could be useful and interesting!

Recorder trigs on the OT not placed on step 1 - examples?

Hey guys, So it's clear to me what the use of Recorder Trigs are on the first step of a pattern, but not really when it comes to using these trigs on later steps. Can anyone explain to me any practical examples of why you might want a Recorder Trig on, say, step 7 as opposed to only on step 1? Can you use multiple Recorder Trigs in a single pass, and if so, why might you want to do this? At the moment I tend to use one-shot trigs to record at pattern length, and have never put a Recorder Tri…

Just thinkg about this quickly, isn’t moving rec trigs the same as moving the playback trigs though? Or, both methods can produce the same end result (offsetting audio playback)?

Ahh yeah wait I got it - polymetric rec and playback (use track 1 to rec and track 2 to playback buffer 1, adjust both tracks to have uneven step lenghts from each other)… sounds like something I gotta try! thx for the idea
