Many many fun hours spent on Octamed back in the day. It really was our punk "hey I can try making that" moment. No idea what I was doing just sampling random stuff and making a racket.
Takes me back to my bedroom after raves trying to make the tunes we heard on a amegia then we got the Atari 520st because it had a built in midi port then the internet was in its infancy and a cracked very early version of Cubase did the rounds😂coming forward that polyend tracker looks interesting further research is needed
Lol in chapter 2 you literally had all my first studio gear. Atari ST running Cubase, Akai S1000 (have S3200 too, but got it later), Alesis Quadraverb and Soundcraft Spirit (later swap with Mackie 1604). The only thing missing is JV1080 lol. Great work btw.
@@TimCant and to top it, I was using Yamaha DX 7 and Jupiter 6 that I got dirt cheap as MIDI keyboard and sample triggering platform lololol actually used DX sounds here and there, but Jupiter was slam keyboard lol. I still have it tho.
@@TimCant It is, not something insane but 4-5 grand easy. It is just so funny I had zero clue about analogue synths, I just needed a sturdy keyboard to fire S1000 and DX was "bass" in most cases, so I would play melodic parts on DX and finger drum on Jupiter. I'm not letting it go though, it has been with me forever plus it sounds so unique my modern polys, analog, hybrid or digital just don't sound like that.
@@bjamminsincebirth3494 yes this has been common since the mid-90s, you can see the evolution of DnB beats in chapter 2 of this video ruclips.net/video/BuaKtIjSY_A/видео.htmlsi=iShg47bDSOSZyNgr
There are quite a few artists that use one shots. Some that I know would even program their own drums in Superior Drummer etc to get the "human" feel and then chop that up. Some would get slices from rex files and re-arrange beats, so loops are far from only way. Actually most of the old stuff was linear drumming which is tracker trademark (one shot per step).

@@earlsfield if I had one I wouldn’t flog it unless the bailiffs were knocking!
Very very good. 👍 👍
That populate c minor 11 pad sounds nice, reminds me of a pad from FM7 vst that I always went back to. 7am pad it was called if I remember correctly
@@squarelanguage FM7 and FM8 are dope and not as hard to use as you’d imagine on first inspection 😁
amiiiigggggggaaaaaaaaa
Question: Is there anyone that makes DnB with one shots or is it always a drum break sample loop?
