HEY - Here's some tactics for ya syntakt, have fun, i did :)
0:00 - I dont have all day
0:10 - Jacob's Arp
2:26 - step record mode
5:29 - syntakt bass clips my interface
5:50 - pattern length - sequence control / stutter
11:50 - recap and REE u later

Wow I never realized that making the master length longer would play out the rest of the notes for a track with a shorter scaling, thank you so much for that tip! Really will help in making longer slow melodies.
i'm sayin ! i've had a digitakt for years and i just figured this one out
Thanks yeah length thing just keeps on going was using that exact same syntaktik earlier these types of tutorials for tricks and hacks are great keep em coming
Awesome, can't wait for next episodes!
My man's got syntaktics and crazy prophylactics! For reals, thank you for the quality content, this is the stuff we all looking for. To the point and dope as hell. I'm celebrating you homie! Keep on!
Also, if you ever do one of those shorts videos, I'd love to see one on connecting the keystep properly to syntakt, I always mess it up. Thanks for your consideration and time!
awh thanks man! :)
We'll probably do some DEEP dives on midi soon ;)
Very nice video! Thanks for all the great tips!
Hey tip number 3 is awesome! didnt know that all! gonna try out that step sequencer on the keystep tonight. Stay SynTACTIKAL
we gotta get some shirts made that say that 🤣
I use infinite Master length a lot.
It’s a good tip to know that Fn + counterclockwise get you there very fast.
Length parameters used to mess me up on the Digitone. I mean, it seems logical at fist, but in practice I couldn’t figure it out. Thanks for explaining it. Looking forward to using a Syntakt here myself soon!
same here man! i actually figured it out by looking at the demo songs in the syntakt, when you get your hands on one don't skip past all the preset demos! they show off some cool features!
Holy crap! Its Wes! How did the YT algorithm never take me to your channel! Hope things are well bro! Nice video man!
Your presentation style is infectious. Love these reviews.
Keep ‘em comin
we need more syntactics! 🦆
More Dope Shiz. Thanks! 😁👊
hell yeah brother thanks
miss these vids!
more soon dont u worry
Notice when you copy+paste trigs you hold multiple trigs when pasting which is not necessary! Can just hold the first step where you want the copied steps to start and the rest will fill out automatically. Especially useful if you're trying to copy to steps 7+8+9, for example - saves a big hand stretch.
holy crap you're so right 😂 i always just assumed cause the text was the "func" color it had to be held but you are SO correct, if you're holding a trig you just need to tap one of those buttons!
the pasting bit is just an old habit because some other boxes are not as smart as elektron ;)
@@soffter Took me two years with the DT to realise I didn't have to hold down! Felt like I just got speed hacks. Had one since release and still finding tricks... Like when Mario blew your mind with the randomise page function on the ST the other day. Went and tried it on the DT and was shocked that it worked. New level unlocked. Now I just need them to implement velocity/aftertouch assignments on the DT - it feels a bit left out next to ST and DN now :( .. I need my velocity to filterrrrrr.
Like the camera.
Mucho mucho Fun! Thanks!
thank you!
tried this one digitakt it works jsut the same...very nice
yup!! all of these will work on the DT and DN too ;)
Good Stuff, thanks! BTW you don't need to hold FUNC while holding a step to COPY PASTE, just the step+COPY, or PASTE.
You be genius
not gonna lie I'm surprised you didn't extend out the concept deemed "stutter" to its logical, violent end. going down to 16 is cool but, and maybe it's just me but for me, going down to 4..2....dare I say 1....... now that's a stutter if I do say so myself. either way I'd never thought about doing it until you flirted with the idea so thanks friendly perfect circuit video man
oh yah,
you can take it even FARTHER should you chose by using the tempo multipliers! write your sequences longer at 2X and then stutter twice as fast ;)
Thanks for sharing! I purchased the Syntakt and love it. I’m considering selling my kidney for the OP1 field, but have a question I can’t seem to get info about. Do you know if the USB midi will connect with Syntakt ? I would like to use my electron boxes to sequence external midi from OP1 field. Do you have any insight into that? Is that possible out of the box or will we need a midi host. I’m confused bc isn’t iOP1 field supposed to be a midi host? Or do you know if this is a future thing? I love the OP1 sounds but prefer elektron sequencing. Thanks for your time as always!
Yeah the Syntakt has a very robust midi section! you can use USB midi and even set up macros for mod/pitchwheel and a few others,
there are a few settings you'll want to check in the system settings, but the syntakt totally can do bi-directional USB midi !
you can only use the USB for one thing at a time tho, so like, it's either midi or audio, cant do both !
Groovey.
So, ultimately, you can make the 64 steps seem longer and create some kind of progression.
DRUMMYTHICC 💀
bro u already KNOW 🤣
i'll buy the syntakt when they release an arp.. if it can be done with an lfo, i'm sure it can be done as a standalone feature
for real for real
Me too, but I also said that I would buy the Digitone, if the (great) Arp could be routed Midi - which never happened, since the Octatrack's (great) Arp is already Midi (but not for the internal engine). I got the impression that Elektron is teasing me (to say it kindly), since both added functions would be only a few lines of code. Leaving out the Arp totally in the Syntakt made just drop that otherwise interesting instrument completely off my focus.
Hey, great video, but I’m a little confused as to how I would choose the semitones with the LFO. I presume the values need to go in the LFO depth parameter, but it looked like yours was at zero. Can you help me out here?
ah yes the depth is how you set the semi tones,
I dialed them in as P-locks i believe, because the LFO's do so much heavy lifting on the elektron devices, part of my workflow is to set up the lfo's without depth most of the time and dial it in per step
on the semitones thing hahaha
I tried step sequencing without an external midi controller (used the Syntakt keyboard mode) and the cursor didn’t budge so I had to press the arrow key for every note. What am I doing wrong?
Ah yeah actually, you have to hold FUNC if you're not using an external midi controller, it makes it a lil more clumsy but! if you can get the flow down it still works
hold track n func to pull up the keyboard i believe if you want to punch in the scaled notes.
@@soffter thanks that worked!
Right, cool, but now you're down at least 1 LFO if you wanted to use it elsewhere. This is why I prefer using the Syntakt in a hybrid setup so I can automate params manually.
Dont work for me i'm lock on 2 note only i dont know why ? :(
do you have to have a midi keyboard to pick different notes in the step recording mode?
no but you do have to hold func!
@@soffter thank you!
Like 5:26 there is some real bad crackling. Could just be my device tho
oh yeah i clipped the SHIT outta my interface when i brought the resy down on that analog track,
i left it in cause, it should be known how FAT that thing can get on the low end 🥵
So - - the only way to enter notes during step record is via external midi?
oh no sorry,
You can engage the on board keyboard and program that way too !
@@soffter I figured out in order to use the 16 built in keys for scaled step record just hold down the FUNC button while entering notes.
Wait... "Feedback is an..."?
I hate cliff hangers!
"Feedback is an...WHAT?"
CAN I USE THE SOUND CLIP AT 7:42??
do as you please :)
