Really cool track. This is my favorite setup when I'm stepping out of the studio. Two awesome pieces of gear, sync up beautiful, portable enough, sturdy, affordable. Totally recommend both. Don't forget your midi cable...
Great !! Thank you 🙏 You will find this kick in the first pattern of the firmware update 2.0 (with a bit of tune 😉) I hope you will enjoy your Tr8s. Cheers !
Really nice track, very clever use of the sequencer! I will have to try this. I haven't used the sequencer much on mine as i'm usually sequencing it from the Digitakt or 707. Great stuff!
Thanks mate ! 🙏 I understand why you use the digitakt, it seems to be a very powerful sequencer. Behind the 16 steps of the miniligue xd, there's a lot of features that makes it very interesting but need to explore it more, I only have it since yesterday 😊
@ph911 no, it hasn't. And switching patterns is very delicate with it, it can be out of measure if you're not super precise.. But if you have sequences with same mesaures long, it can be easier.. Ps: i haven't seen all what you wrote the first time 😅 thank you so much !! 🙏 Yes, i buy vinyl since.. Ever 😂
@@krostifmusic I was listening to your video with my son now (I teach him the theory of music). And new sensations came over me. In order not to produce the same individual comments, I just edited the first one) We choose between Artoria micro freak and Korg as you have in the video.
Just got a tr-8s and a minilogue xd module. I’ve got a novation sl-mk3 that should be able to control it all too. But I’ve been too busy with school to hook it all up! I got them to get these jams out of my head. Just like this one. The semester will be over soon and then I’ll get to rock out. Thanks man.
I understand, not easy. I Have tr8s for almost one year, xd for 6 months, and just scratched the surface to make music with them, not enough free time.. I hope you will make them sing soon :)
@@EdCosico The dilemn of my life 😂 it was the same with dj times.. one day house, one day techno, one day DnB, one day hardcore.. But if I had to choose, I think it would be dub techno.. this is where I love to explore sound design and effects the most, and play for hours and hours :)
Hi, how do you do for selecting which part of the seq you want to loop? I can't on mine with shift and the seq buttons, may be because of the firmware or is there an option in the edit mode?, thanks!
Hi, this was a new feature from update 2.0. By default, shift+step is for favorite patches. For active step function, you need to go to : Edit Mode / global edit / 8th sequencer button (global 6) and click until you see "shift function". Switch "favorite" to "active step" :)
Wow, awesome, I just updated to very last version, big big thank you, tonight I will be testing, I am thinking on buying also a tr8s too, would you recommend it or?. Thanks a lot ❤
@@gatoconia defintely ! It's a great versatile drum machine and more, mostly for live performance because it has no song mode but full of hands-on control. I love mine 😊
You're right, both are great for beginners. The simplest way (like mine) is to send the audio of the minilogue into the tr8s ext in. Midi out in tr8s, midi in minilogue. Then check global settings of minilogue, find transport rx which is off and turn it on. This way, when you start tr8s, the minilogue will start with it and will take the bpm of the tr8s. That's all 😊
@@krostifmusic thank you very much for the information. What else would you put on it. Because if i have already a beat (tr8s) and a repeating sequence (with the Monologue) i would like in the same time to freestyle with a keyboard freestlye melodie. What would you recommend for this? I alreay have very cool VST Instruments (refx nexus 4) ... dawless is cool but the refx nexus 4 also has some very nice sounds. I think about getting the tr8s and the Minilouge in Ableton + VST like refx Nexus... maybe I also will repeat some stuff in Nexus (make a sequence on the fly, live performance) in the way that i play the nexus with the keystep Pro... what do you think? I would like to perform live techno
It's great because it brings something else to the box and makes it more versatile than before. Not deep as a real fm engine for sure, but fun to use and sounds good :)
It's an arp I sequenced with a step resolution 1:1 (equal as 1 bar per step), and I use active step functions to extend the sequence at the half of the track.
Very nice! I love the history of techno music be it from Detroit, Chicago, Berlin or Cologne and these two machines cover those sounds plus a ton of other things as well. I have both of them myself and they make a perfectly simple, minimalist and stripped down setup using just the factory presets but both are easy to expand beyond that as well. Peace and Namaste. ✌️🙏
Thanks ! 🙏 Agree, these two machines are gold. Cherry on cake with tr8s update 😀 and as a beginner in sound design, XD will feed all my needs and hopes for years !! Peace my friend 🙏
@@schem515 I’m sorry , clearly I should’ve mentioned Frankfurt. I guess I assumed everybody knows that and I just happen to really love the underground minimalist stylings from Cologne especially Thomas Fehlmann who I don’t think gets enough credit sometimes. Ditto for England’s Alex Patterson. Anyway, thank you for bitch slapping me on that point, I deserved it!
They are connected with a midi cable (midi out to midi in). Midi out will be your master clock. You may check some midi settings if it doesn't work instantly. Here, i wanted tr8s to be the master clock, and i remember i needed to change rx transport in global settings of the xd :)
How am i supposed to hook up my Minilogue XD ti the Roland tr-8s? Currently im using the Roland as an audio interface in my daw. Am i supposed to connect the L/R outputs on the synth to the external ins in the drum machine using TRS cables? Ot is there a better eay to do this? Thank you in advance 😁
@@krostifmusic okay, thank you for getting back to me so quick. And nice videos of these 2 beasts by the way. I really love synth based music 😁 I guess I will figure it out one way or another 🙂
Haha my bad… but I would like to have the same set up as yours.. I’m a dj but would like to expand my skills making remixes and other things. The keyboard is connected to the TR8s by midi input right? Do the bpm sync up automatically?
Tr8s is the master clock here and minilogue xd is slave. They are connected with midi cable only for the clock (no other midi messages). They both run with their own sequencer in sync. But I remember when I tried the first time, it didn't work. So I searched in the manual and found I needed to change rx transport setting in minilogue xd and it worked. Some gear are "plug and play", some are not. But there's always a solution :)
I'm sorry, I don't see what you want to do on tr8s with a keyboard controller since it's a drum machine without midi tracks.. but if it works, USB cable should be enough.
I just made it 2 days ago 😃 I only forgot to mention that arp is set on rise 1 😉 The sound design is quick to give an idea but you can adjust to taste. Cheers ruclips.net/video/-adC1NDjCWY/видео.htmlsi=hPEvNYnns33Zssxz
i keep coming back to this, it's so good. Ive been trying to replicate it with my XD but just can't! How do you move from a repeating 2 step sequence to the 8 step sequence? I can see you turn the rest of the steps on but why was it just cycling between steps 1 and 2? I can only get it to play 8 steps, 6 of which are silent until i turn the steps on. Confused!
This is the active step function from the 2.0 update. You can watch how to enable it and how it works here, around 4 mn mark ;) you also have other great functions so don't hesitate to watch the full vid : ruclips.net/video/Y8oLvq9vKes/видео.html
Thank you !🙏 to sync them, you need a midi cable. Here it's tr8s midi out to minilogue xd mini in, and turn rx transport off to on in minilogue global settings if you want them to start together :)
@@Daubentonia88 Not on this one but i use it on few videos (summertime, if only..) and yes, it works fine ! Package of parameters you can set as you like on ext in, which are saved in your kit settings, not on global parameters :)
I love my minilogue xd and am looking for a drum machine to accompany it. After looking at this video as well as sone reviews I think the TR-8S might be it. It sounds amazing and I like that you can import samples to play with.
Thank you, great performance. I just got the TR-8S and love it. I am looking to get the minilogue xd to go with it as well. How do you sync the two of them together?
Thank you ! 🙏 They're sync via tr8s midi out/ xd midi in, start button is the tr8s. I remember i had to change settings in the midi menu of the xd (sorry I don't remember the default settings) , but don't worry you will find them in the owner's manual 😉
I really like the way you youse TR-8S. I think of buying one - thanks to you. Please let me know what do you think about my last production - detroit techno on EMX!
Great stuff man! A stupid question from a minilogue newbie: I seems that you managed to trigger the sequence play on the minilogue by starting the TR8S. I can't figure out how to achieve this on my setup. Any hints?
Thank you !🙏 Questions are never stupid 😉 here i plug midi out of tr8s with midi in of minilogue xd and in global settings of minilogue xd, find rx transport is off, turn it on and it should work 🙂
Thank you very much 🙏 in the "seq edit" menu, find step sequencer. It is set to 1/16. If you set it to 1/1, a single step is running during 4 beats. Also The next paramater in the menu (something like gate or lenght sorry i don't remember..) is set to 20%, go for 100% and you can sequence long full arps. With the 16 steps, you can make like 256 😁
I'm am in a big dillema on which one to get, the classic korg and xd korg. The dillema comes from the fact that the classic one has beautiful melancholic unique sound but xd sounds very, colourful and has a little touch of the melancholic vibes too but with alot more features, oh...
Thats a fab sound on the mini great work but for those wondering the kick I highly doubt is from the tr8s, probably a sample loaded in after much processing, but just my guess…heavy kick also this ;)
I can confirm the kick comes from the internal sounds of tr8s, an fm one which i only adjust morph a bit, but I don't remember its name in the machine 😅🙏
Sorry to bother you, just wondering how to trigger sequence starting on the xd from the TR-8s. I have midi connected and tempo is synced but when I hit start on tr8s, sequence doesn't start on the xd :( love your stuff so much, got my gear due to your work!
No worries man you're welcome 😉 Find rx transport in global settings of minilogue xd. Default setting is off. Turn it to on and it should work. Thanks for the love 🙏💜
Sorry i don't really understand what you mean (me french guy 😅) Each are plugged on their own stereo channel in the mixer (or 2 mono) but you can also plugged minilogue to ext in (L/R) on tr8s. Better have stereo for internal effects 🙂
@@NatLifeSounds ah ok 😀 so tr8s and minilogue are connected via midi. Tr8s is master clock (midi out) and minilogue xd is slave (midi in) but you can do it in reverse (minilogue midi out-tr8s midi in) and the start button will be the minilogue. In any case, be sure to have the right settings in the midi menu of the two machines (who is master and who is slave) 😉
@@krostifmusic I'm just thinking how I can connect my minilogue, prologue and other ten synths with coming tr6s) think you very much! I see tr6s have midi
Thanks a lot !! There are two tricks in fact.. One is to set step sequences to 1:1, a single step is playing 1 bar. And second, it's the active step function added in the update. Here's how to use it, at 4 mn mark in this video ruclips.net/video/Y8oLvq9vKes/видео.html
@@krostifmusic I watched your video again after your reply (thanks again) and update for XD. Now I clearly see what you are doing here. Great tips for live performance! Will use it in my next gig :-)

Sweet!
Thank you !🙏
NOT BAD SIR!
Thank you !🙏
Reminds me Tiesto! 🫶🖤
Thank you for the compliment 🙏😊
Cool
Thank you ! 🙏
Sounds great! ✨
Thank you 😊🙏
Beautful, really liked it. What is the trick about extending the 16 steps limit that you mention?
Thank you very much 🙏 in the "seq edit" menu, find step sequencer. It is set to 1/16. If you set it to 1/1, a single step is running during 4 beats. Also The next paramater in the menu (something like gate or lenght sorry i don't remember..) is set to 20%, go for 100% and you can sequence long full arps. With the 16 steps, you can make like 256 😁
thank ! very nice track ! i was thinking that the sequencer of the minilogue is only 16 step but it's look tike u can do 128 step
Yes it's 16 step sequencer, but you can choose steps time division. In this case it's 1/4 so you hear one step like it is 4 :)
Nikel ça 👍
Cool👍💡😁
Thanks 🙏🎹😉
Sehr cool 👍👍👍👍👍
Danke ! 🙏
I'm am in a big dillema on which one to get, the classic korg and xd korg. The dillema comes from the fact that the classic one has beautiful melancholic unique sound but xd sounds very, colourful and has a little touch of the melancholic vibes too but with alot more features, oh...
Watch more reviews it will help you to choose 😉 or buy both 😀
Thats a fab sound on the mini great work but for those wondering the kick I highly doubt is from the tr8s, probably a sample loaded in after much processing, but just my guess…heavy kick also this ;)
I can confirm the kick comes from the internal sounds of tr8s, an fm one which i only adjust morph a bit, but I don't remember its name in the machine 😅🙏
Sounds really good. My only complaint is that kick. It sounds like someone slapping a wet cardboard box with an old leather shoe.
Thank you ! Hahaha, loved the description 😂 I agree, there are so much better kicks than this one.. It was the instant :)
impressive
Sorry to bother you, just wondering how to trigger sequence starting on the xd from the TR-8s. I have midi connected and tempo is synced but when I hit start on tr8s, sequence doesn't start on the xd :( love your stuff so much, got my gear due to your work!
No worries man you're welcome 😉
Find rx transport in global settings of minilogue xd. Default setting is off. Turn it to on and it should work.
Thanks for the love 🙏💜
Did I sent a Minilogue to one of tr8s channel right?
Sorry i don't really understand what you mean (me french guy 😅) Each are plugged on their own stereo channel in the mixer (or 2 mono) but you can also plugged minilogue to ext in (L/R) on tr8s. Better have stereo for internal effects 🙂
@@krostifmusic ah...I mean when you turn on play button on tr6s sequencer, monologue also starting to play, so I mean how is it working:)?
@@NatLifeSounds ah ok 😀 so tr8s and minilogue are connected via midi. Tr8s is master clock (midi out) and minilogue xd is slave (midi in) but you can do it in reverse (minilogue midi out-tr8s midi in) and the start button will be the minilogue. In any case, be sure to have the right settings in the midi menu of the two machines (who is master and who is slave) 😉
@@krostifmusic I'm just thinking how I can connect my minilogue, prologue and other ten synths with coming tr6s) think you very much! I see tr6s have midi
awweeeesomeee!
Thanks a lot !! 🙏
❤❤❤
🙏🙏🙏
Dope.
🙏
sick!
Thanks ! 🙏
Ok, we established the TR8s has a kick drum
Fortunately yes 😄
Wow. really nice! What's the trick with the sequencer on Minilogue XD here? Got mine yesterday, trying to make the most of it.
Thanks a lot !! There are two tricks in fact.. One is to set step sequences to 1:1, a single step is playing 1 bar. And second, it's the active step function added in the update. Here's how to use it, at 4 mn mark in this video ruclips.net/video/Y8oLvq9vKes/видео.html
@@krostifmusic Thank you very much sir! I'll try both ways. I'm familiar with active step function on volcas.
@@krostifmusic I watched your video again after your reply (thanks again) and update for XD. Now I clearly see what you are doing here. Great tips for live performance! Will use it in my next gig :-)
@@aleksandrlukin565 you're welcome, glad you have gigs 😃
Carrément bon !! Comment tu fais pour les synchroniser les 2 machine ??
Merci, c'est juste une synchro midi, la tr8s en maître et le xd en esclave. Je me souviens que d'origine le xd n'était pas reconnu en esclave, il fallait changer le paramètre clock source sur auto midi ou qq chose comme ça...
...ya man....wow...top
Thanks a lot ! 🙏
