The minilogue XD is way too limited for me. There are good things about it, namely the pricepoint. But I absolutely hate that it only has an AD envelope for the filter and that it only has 1 LFO which can only be used to modulate 1 destination and there are only 3 destinations to choose from, cutoff, pitch and shape. The filter is also very basic, only 1 2-pole 12db lowpass filter and not a drive knob but rather a drive switch which can select between 3 drive amounts. That seems silly, I doubt it's even a moneysaver for Korg to implement it like that. 4 note polyphony is also very limiting, but at this pricepoint I think it is not something to complain about. It has 3 oscillators per voice though, which is excellent, the 3rd oscillator being digital and capable of wavetables, which is also great. If you are a developer, like me, then it is also possible to develop your own wavetables and even your own effects for this thing, which is why it is definately a keeper for me, although I have a hard time finding the time to do so next to my day job and my other hobby synth projects.

wen im sat at home ,with my dog ,,we gt banggers going ,,i swear my window is open. ,,,sometimes,, yet. the less i know about a machine the more a ppreciated i am for it , ,,tho i only sold one wich was a beghringer ,,, dont ana;iize music. just do it ,,......init. ,, thease are like scientific calculators. ,,,as long as u got basic math. ,, then the rest is a bonus

if mc 101 could do a simple live rec ...it would be be amazing because i can deal with that ,, but this has so many extr things. i dont think ill ever get to use the whole scope ,,because i still like my other machines n guitar ,,, very confusing switching from different manufac ,,, to the other

is it clean or colors sounds?

Absolutely wacky sample flip

Where’s the peak??? 🤓

need a full video :)

scent candles are toxic af

could i combine it with digitone 2 and use the pads also as midi controlling for the digitone?

I really like your setup and also your thoughts behind it! :) I've got a quiet similar setup. I've got the Blackbox, Bluebox, Digitakt MK I, Syntakt, Octatrack, Revolo, Launch Control XL, SH-01A. In my case, I'm using the Bluebox as my main mixer and the Novation Launch Control is connected via USB so I can control the 6 channels and some send-return action with this MIDI Controller. The Digitakt is basically for the whole drums and the Syntakt is there for some backup drums a mainly for the melodic stuff. :) The SH-01A is for live "playing". I've got a lot of Sequenzes in the Octatrack so I can get some nice grooves out of it with some effects from the Octatrack on top of it. :) In the Blackbox I've got some longer samples from my studio sessions or some melodic parts from my ASM Hydrasynth - wich I want to take with me in the live situation but it's to big to carry it easily around^^

oh, so it turns out i have to hold down record + play in order to record what i play. all good cheers

cool video but when i play a riff, press record on Digitakt nothing happens.. its not recording any notes i play

Can you change the root note all together? Every demo is playing with C as the the root note. I'd like to see if it can play something like an F# minor scale and chords.

Is Synth running through the Boum in this video? Sounds warmer than I’ve heard in other vids.

Just picked up Digitone 2 and it’s really the sound designers dream.. put into the new Teenage Engineering thing and that would be the best synth/workstation evaaaa!!

I need to figure out how to create my own ‘chord packs’ - anyone know how to do it?

Love this overview, this seems like a really good synth for the price. Especially compared to something like the MiniFreak (which I love), this is cheaper and in some ways more powerful and interesting as someone who likes playing with pads. Really lovely jams in this video too, pairing with the SP404 was genius

I just love the sound's you have got going there. I've heard a lot of criticism at the limitations of the device, but this is a brill example of what you can do with it. Their price point being much lower than a play+ and tracker+ have the community thinking there will be a synth+ at a higher price at some point. I don't want to be one who shares that thought though.

Follower allows you to program a pattern in one section, and that section will play automatically and follow the scale that you play in another section.

This sounds fantastic wowwww

nice video, does the chord feature and chord pack features transmit all of that midi to the outputs?

Interesting layout but how do you know what notes or chords you are actually playing?

I've been saying for a decade imagine how good elektron products would be if they had a screen like this. So much bettter!

It really does sound great and the price is right. I just don't understand 8 notes of polyphony. It's rather annoying how so many modern synths just cripple themselves with embarrassingly low poly count. In the 80s and 90s we have 16 part multitimbral digital synths with 64-128 not polyphony. Now we get 8 voices if we are lucky. The Blofeld and Virus were the last major synths to have multiple instances and large voice counts. Make it make sense.

Once I buy this, I will be happy for a long time

Can your melody be sequenced within the unit itself ?

This looks truly rad. I love the setup with the 404 too. You’re right, these two machines could make for endless fun.

I'm a huge fan of the form factor detaching itself from the keyboard style layout. This seems endlessly inspiring for this reason alone! Polyend, ya got my attention

Very clear and informative video! I did not realize how important compression was until I saw this. When filtering the sidechaining signal, do You still send its dry signal to the mixer instead of the filtered down one? Or both? Thanks a lot!

Got one big thing wrong... The Digitakt also has an 8 voice synth...which is now 16 voices in the Digitakt 2... It still makes more sense to get the Digitakt 2 because it covers most of the Digitone 2 capabilities and so much more... 💥

Thank you so much for actually demonstrating both the granular and microsound aspects of this pedal. This is truly important because every other video I've seen just makes the same dense 'ambient' sounds and doesn't actually showcase the granular side of things. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

5his is just fantastic

Nice video 👍 What are your thoughts on the Bluebox 3 years on?

The filter is analog?

holy moly

Good to see you again :)

Great video thanks!

Welcome, and, thanks for sharing! Curious how it matches up to (and/or differences) the OTO Boum, or, Elektron Analog Heat.

It sounds really punchy

Is the sidechain signal bypassed by the compressor?

Synth daddy is back

Welcome back! Have been really excited to hear you talk through what you’ve been up to on the 404! Great stuff as always 🙏

My first impression of this compressor is "friendly". It seems like a great piece of gear to live on the desktop , especially with the mix and sidechain options.

I am trying to get this same combo setup. I've got the midi cables setup, the midi tracks (9-12) on DT are setup numbered 1-4, Auto channel on DT and DN is 10, keystep is setup and working fine with the DT, but the problem I am having is keystep cannot play the DN. On the key step, pressing Shift+key#9,10,11,12 doesn't select tracks on DN, but on the keystep, the Shift+keys#1-8 work fine to play tracks on the DT. Got any ideas how to get keystep to play the DN? It should work. I had it working in the past. It's weird.

So good. Reminds me of early Baths in the best way.

I want one so bad

Working on new insert and send presets on my MPCs new beta software until i can get an amazing sequncer and effect box like SP 404 and maybe even the polyend play if not the tracker mini, i cant decide but the play looks more and more fun to play (pun intended) with everytime i see a video of it.

This is fucking amazing man! Mad props

wow that sounds so accurate

SOPHIE <3 RIP this was so good btw
