My FINAL Euorack Module / Installing & Testing Euclidian Circles v2
I have been working on this new Eurorack Case for weeks. My goal has been to sync my Eurorack clock with my MPC Live to be able to generate Euclidian Rhythms in time with my beats. I quickly realized the Qu-Bit Pulsar was not going to cut it due to the issues with resetting with a clock. Luckily I picked up the VPME.DE Euclidian Circles v2 and this thing is exactly what I was hoping for!

How The MPC Live Has Unlocked My Creativity

    What you mean by we already know that my Splice piano loop is in 120 BPM? That's almost never a case. Is there a Splice adapt tempo? Is there a option to download a ready made sample in the key and tempo to be processed and fit to what you need for your user case. This is usual Loopcloud workflow but I'm missing to see that, or any good real life example videos at all, with Splice :/

    • @brentwatters
      @brentwatters День назад

      Hi the splice loop itself is labeled with the bpm of the loop already. There is ways to do this across different DAWs and hardware but it’s all different. It’s not splice dependent, it’s work station or hardware dependent.

    •  13 часов назад

      ​@@brentwatters Thank you for clarifying this. My main issue was understanding the challenges and the workflow that effectively addresses those challenges using Loopcloud, while lacking similar information for other comparable tools, in this case Splice. I understand that the primary limitation here is the very specific and restricted MPC ecosystem. Additionally, from what I gather, Splice doesn't provide an option to adapt keys and tempos of the original sample to the user's preferences. Instead, you are required to stick to the original key and tempo, handling any processing within your DAW or, in this case, the MPC. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    • @brentwatters
      @brentwatters 8 часов назад

      Hi you can use splice bridge, their plug-in within your daw. Once that plug in is on a specific track it will talk to the splice browser application on the computer and will automatically warp samples to the tempo of your DAW. You can also adjust the key via the bottom section when the sample is playing back. For this to work you need to download the splice browser application onto your computer and within the browser install the splice bridge plugin

    @brentwatters I consider myself pretty darn tech savvy, but I've been struggling with the connect to Abelton when adding VSTs and other audio effects. After quite a few vids, you're the one who increased my understanding so that I could solve my issue. Thank you. Really well presented. I think my only tiny suggestion is to use an interface that is more common for newbies - A Scarlett or an M-Audio Air - but really, that's fairly trivial. Nicely done Brent.
