    I wish everyone explained equipment as well as you! I watch reviews that tell me what they do but I seldom know any more than when I started. Excellent job!

      Agreed. Even other well known RUclipsrs make it confusing (or more confusing and ambiguous) and don’t explain it well

    Man, why can't Alturia actually explain their own gear this well? Thank you... finally. Now I'd like to see it paired with the Mini Freak:-)

    Thank the gods for this video. I've been a pianist for two decades but I've always been confused on sequencing and how electronic music is made. Makes way more sense now!

    Thank you.
    I'm inexperienced with all this. I've been watching lots of videos on the BeatStep (I'm at the point of having ordered it but still waiting for delivery, I had misunderstood "last step" and your explanation of "gate" was helpful. I've looked at the Lone Star School of Music channel and there's videos with titles about stuff I want to learn about, I'll certainly be giving those a go, thank you.
    I'm in my mid 50s now, I was discussing with a friend how our (musical) lives could have been so much different had we had iPads and GarageBand as kids, along with free learning resources. I was deep into my first ever instrument, sax, in the mid 2000s and there was almost nothing online for me.
    Sadly, I have some physical issues that forced me to stop sax/wind controller and drums some time ago. I'm so excited to be thinking about creating music again. Daunting by getting to grips with the DAW side of things, so really happy to be getting the BeatStep, which will ease me into Abelton Live Lite.

    I've looked at one after another after another, the seq in my micro freak and in my minibrute 2s... but no matter what the arturia beatstep just seems to be the most straight forward straight up powerful sequencer.

    I’ve been watching tutorials on this for 3 days and this was by far the best.
    I have a question.
    How do I set it so that I can sequence 2 Roland boutiques via MIDI, but without any midi clock? The boutiques receive clock via usb from the mx1 mixer, so I only need to sequence the actual riffs but not the clock. How do I set this up, and how do I have sequencer 1 & 2 to the 2 boutiques with the 1 Midi out?
    Really appreciate this tutorial and it was loads better than all the others I’ve been watching.

    128 is a round number in binary. One less than it, 127, is the equivalent in binary of a number that's all-9's - it's the biggest value you can fit in a given number of digits.

  • @kinksbeatlesstones
    @kinksbeatlesstones 4 года назад

    Yep great video. I have the Keystep 25 midi’d to a Korg Monologue. How would I connect it to a Korg Volca drum so I can sequence a drum pattern? I have a MIDI Quadra Thru box as well. Can my Keystep start a sequence on one or both of those machines when I want them to play together?

  • @stephenwagner1500
    @stephenwagner1500 3 года назад +1

    Can this sequencer be used with a vst such as Arturia Analog 4, which I use with an arturia midi controller and reaper daw? Or a synth vst such as surge? Or is a hardware synth required?

    • @Taeodoestech

  • @TheDrumChannel
    @TheDrumChannel 2 года назад

    Question - is there any device that I can load a few of my own (wav) samples with - and then trigger those samples using an external midi device by sending only one midi note? I have a Roland SPD-SX and it has no sequencing capabilities. I have a kick drum trigger that fires a wav file in the SPD-SX - Since the SPD-SX has Midi out, I am trying to use the midi out note (from the kick drum) and have it step through a sequence of Wav files. I am looking for this type of device - any help would be appreciated - Thank you in advance

      You are not looking for a sequencer but a sampler and pretty much any current gen sampler can do what you need

    • @MrByteYT
      @MrByteYT 4 года назад

      You mean on the non-Pro model? From the manual 6.3.3.4 Pattern Length - it say's :
      To select a new Pattern Length, hold the SHIFT and CHAN buttons and then press the
      pad that corresponds to the desired setting.
      Hope that helps. Cheers.

    How do you get the sound as you're changing the pitch while sequence is not playing?

    • @Pontiki1977
      @Pontiki1977 5 лет назад +2

      it is a function on arturia machines.the beatstep and the beatstep pro let you hear the corresponding sound each time you turn the knob above a step, even when the sequence is not playing.

    127 is just one off 128 Geometric series easily identifyible same as bit rate or memory size in computers. That is why they would have made it that way when midi was first invented
