Thought I’d share another video. In this video I sample the Digitakt literally. As in, I hit it, pet it, smash it, rub it, etc. record that into itself, and create a track from it. Digitakt might be my best purchase ever. Such a great little machine
Hope you enjoy, and please leave a like on youtube if you do, share on your socials, and if you want to subscribe click http://bit.do/subscribe-to-dave
Thanks @AdamJay ! @Grim_Erland well to be fair: It took me quite some sound shaping to get it to sound right within the DT ;). Used a hint of EQ and compression on the master as well, because it’s a downloadable track as well.
Not sure if things automatically sound better on DT. I think the OT should be able to achieve the same. It’s way more complex and tiny changes can add up to a better sound (starting with proper gain staging). I’m actually thinking of trading one of my DT’s for a OTmkii down the road.
I came into this thread thinking you were actually eating a Digitakt! Then I saw the first frame of the video shows you holding chopsticks and case closed… you’re eating a Digitakt
I see, Ive listened to it again and was starting to wonder if it might be more produced - tricked a little by the video maybe - but I really do feel like many DT videos where things are fed right in and then sequenced do exhibit a very good sound. A kind of boyancy…anyway - great work!
Yeah it does have a great sound. It has a very subtle boost in a higher frequency band, and maybe the stereo to mono summing does have something to do with it. Working with mono samples makes productions a little more focused as well. I love to keep most of my tracks mono-ish and create space by subtle stereo imaging and picking specific sounds to be more present in width by lfoing the pan or use of subtle ping pong delay.
Thanks for listening and watching really appreciate it .
@Unifono Thanks !! Still learning the ropes, it’s a lot of fun
