The Octatrack is amazing

Thank you, that is one epic drum break!

Dude, this is amazing. Really nice demo. I should do a study like this on the OT where I go to the very edges of its capability. There’s no need to be afraid, hehe.

Thank you! Yeah exactly… think of the voices in your head that are telling you not to do this or that. Do exactly the opposite of what they’re telling you, writhing the realms of Octatrack of course!

Are you modulating the compressor envelopes with LFOs? Plocks? Scenes? Of not, give it a try.

I’m totally ignorant regarding Sophie and their music, I watched your clip and while the sound isnt my thing at all, Im enjoying your stoke on OT experiments :slight_smile:

I’m modulating something, can’t remember what though! But yeah that is definetly a thing to try out as well… and thank you! Octa sure rewards exploration imo

Man! Really, really cool! I need to look more into your details here - very inspiring!

Thank you, I really appreciate it! feel free to hit me up with any question if one should arise!

I need to think like this. At the moment I’m taking a break from my gear and just going through years of samples I’ve made in the past. Trying to clear things up and jump back in. When i do I will take your advice.

Looking forward to hearing the results!

Also saw him rocking Modular + Tempest on Synthposium fest Moscow, a few years ago.
That was a show!

That breakdown at like 8 minutes when he’s finger drumming the samples I think in slots mode. Holy hell.

Great performance. But I can’t understand why the audio is mono the entire time.

Typical bad sound quality from the OT :laughing:

Yep. That’ll be the OT compressor then…

Not a fan of the music, but yeah, thats a hyped sound alright, sure to shift some boxes no doubt.

fan of Baseck but the sound quality did grab my attention, was not so great

yea, it’s super busy tracks summed to mono.

I see, interesting choice

Im not sure. With that huge amount of gear in his studio and you end up with a tune you could do on the Amiga im not buying this:)
