Random stuff:
This was quoted in the current M:C thread, Q&A with the developer of the chord machine and the chord machine’s wavetable:
(Also asked by other people)
No plans so far. It is technically possible, but making a machine takes a lot of work from both me and our DSP engineer Oscar who implements it on hardware (in assembler!) … So a lot of time has to be allocated for it and at the moment we want to focus on other things.
No.
Lots! This is always the case. I keep finding tricks on the Digitone every single time I use it, haha. It’s just how it should be with a well designed piece of kit.
And my “hihat machine sounds dull” thread:
Cy Alloy is actually kinda cool. In the idea.
If it wouldn’t sound so dull and have a character that is really off-putting and ruins every piece of music it’s in.
Edit - Skip to good hihats from anything other than cy alloy: Digital Cymbal Machine sounds dull - #6 by Jeanne
I want my cymbals and hihats to be brillant, just like real cymbals, hihats and rides are. Or like one hears it on actual records! Hence I use it for anything but, and instead the analog machines, Sy Tone or Sy Bits.
Greg…
On another note, I LOVE the direction Elektron has gone with the Swarm machine, just for the fact it’s organic and it’s crispy, not at all dull or lo-fi.
