@Robert Grant I'm only talking about the use of limitations and simplification when building a setup for electronic music. Is he a musician? Yes. Samples and beats based electronic music is recognized by even the most sophisticated keyboard players, like Herbie Hancock and Brad Meldhau to name just two. A sampler or sequenced synth is every bit as valid an instrument as a guitar or piano.
Ricky bro, all of your live jam recordings are always super interesting and epic watching. They give an awesome insight into a professional producers workflow which is something that I personally find both fascinating and extremely informative - I learn loads whilst watching videos such as this one on your channel. Please never hesitate to show us the inner workings, in the studio footage as it’s all great material which is very useful and all very appreciated! Thanks for all of the great content buddy!
I enjoined this video so much, Ricky! I own an Avalon too and I would go so far to say that it is my most important instrument. I absolutely love it. Like meditation. Instant bliss.
You're solely responsible for me hunting down an Avalon after watching your prior videos. I honestly slept on it prior, but went down a rabbit hole afterwards. I happened to get one in white/white also which happens to be my favorite combo though I would have taken any I found as it's ultimately about the sound. Interestingly, I was never an "acid" fanatic or 303 aficionado but I appreciated the sound of a well thought out groove. The Avalon is just next level, especially with the SEM cart which I luckily also tracked down. For all of this... I thank you! :D
Was doing this the other day with my impact, my workstatt and my mpc one. Was using the mpc input effects and i just stopped and wept...so grabbing my behringer pro one and my guitar pedal board. Great job Ricky, inspiring me to get at it...
This is a better review. Usually, this machine always sounds the same. I will be running whatever I get, through a DBA ROOMS, and whatever else, I decide to run it through. I need something easy to use, and sounds decent. I don't like the idea of the sampler, because I finally figured out that you have to use cards, or hook it up to a computer. I want something that frees me from that. Thanks! I really enjoy your content. Your video on the Microcosm sold me, on that. That's another thing I like running my synth set up through.
This DJ Chariot is messing with my mind :-) Ricky Tinez advised me about a sampler but DJ Chariot makes me thinking about the drumbrute impact. I love techno & acid and this video has both. Great video!
I love the impact, bought it recently and it’s so versatile, I love how it has it’s known unique sound rather than just ripping off Roland gear like everyone else
with each new vid u publish, your channel gradually becomes one of my favorites to check out, learn from, and ultimately gain insight and inspiration from toward my own production, which is haphazardly technical (a mess but i know where everything is). I feel super compartmentalized... to the point where I need to step back, way back... leave the doors to the compartments open and bridge the gaps if that makes any sense. ;)
Moral of the story for newbies? Keep It Simple! Dude is only using 2 instuments and 1 effect pedal tied into a mixer going to a zoom recorder. Kind of a kick in the head how minimalist the setup actually is, isn't it? :)
yeah Ricky man great mood, I loved how you catched this moment : clear simple music making , expression, fun, not too technical .. I can totally relate to it! good job! Looking for more content like this: Liked n suscribed!
Right, so you say at one stage that messing about with this is a little boring - well it isn't! I make my own acid house without a DAW, using hardware only, and LOVE it! So I could watch this type of video all day long...oh hang on. I just have. Anyway, this Drumbrute thing...looks very nice. I use the Korg Volca Sample, the Korg Microsampler keyboard, TR09, TB03and a RE303 . Oh, and a small Kaos pad 2 for basic effects. Aaaand that's it. Please keep making these vids!
Dude. I've never heard the term "tool track" but that totally makes sense. Makes me think back to the rave days and some of my favorite tunes. They weren't all very complex. Sometimes all you need is a groovy baseline and some bumpin drums. Thanks for sharing, really dig this one. You have also opened my eyes to flangers. Generally, they aren't too my taste, but the pyramids really worked wonders. 👍🏼👍🏼
Yea. Suuuper complex. It’s about the subtleties (not sure if that’s a word) but for tools I don’t mind a simple groove to get me through 3 mins of a key change or vibe change while djing. Techno is easy to make. But really hard to make good techno
sick love the immediacy of that repeat/slip step effect on the drumbrute impact. I like doing it on my DDJ 400 to try and make new drum patterns when mixing fat beats.
Actually, you did something other than jamming: 1. you made me consider Arturia analogue drum mashine, 2. I started believe in myself as amateur musician ;-)
@@RickyTinezTinez you very welcome. I did notice that and - I don't think it's just me - always when you struggle with creativity is good to watch someone doing something related and it somehow ignites brain cells to start working. Cheers
I've been looking at the Drumbrutes as well recently, but sort of got confused that they have a regular Drumbrute and a Drumbrute Impact. Why the hell does Arturia do that?? It's like they're competing with themselves & I haven't been able to figure out which one to get, despite reading reviews & watching comparison videos.
You'd definitely dig a small eurorack setup to pair with these two. I can hear the distortion of the Touell Skouarn Sonveskan mixer and preamp dirtying this up real nice. Maybe something like a Mutable Instruments Plaits, or the smaller Michigan Synth Works Beehive to send the sounds underwater or whatever you're feeling. That kinda combo and a little reverb, then you're into transcendental territory! Keep up the great vids, I'm really enjoying this kind of thing!
This is great, I own the regular drumbrute and a monologue (and some guitar pedals) and this video gsve me a lot of confidence to jam with what I have.
Bought the Drumbrute Impact as soon as it hit shelves. What you said at the end... "on a system... my god, this thing sounds IN - SANE" ...is exactly what I was thinking when I bought it. Now just to rent out a club for the night and just line in with the Impact... Awesome vid. \m/
Dude I just love watching you create and vibe to your own stuff so hard you get goosebumps, damn. This is the shit. Also I agree 100% that this just sounds sick as it is and must be its own track if it isn't already. Dope stuff through-and-through, super educational and inspirational, you are very quickly becoming my favourite music producer on RUclips, hands down.
DB was the 1st drum machine I ever Sampled. It was soo easy to understand. But I got the TR-08 instead. HAPPY? YES. Wish I had a Twin with a DB? ABSOLUTELY.
I love how you use the drum brute! most people seem to use it only yo demo it on RUclips haha Bought one myself a few days ago waiting for it to arrive It’s gonna be my first drum machine and I already love it Thanks for showing me what it can do in real life, sharing your process with it and not just uploading a sample showcase as much of RUclips does It really shows that you enjoy using the drum brute Thanks!! Love the channel, you’re amazing
If you have not tried the A&H DB4 mixer you really should. You will dig the loopers and fx. Yes, pricy but will open up your set building ability I think.
Thanks man. I just got impact and Roland se02.. I am learning some great stuff here. So thanks the more details the better...thanks again. Playing micro freak on top.
i loved watching you make music next time dont cut it short! i enjoy learning the way you play and make changes plus your music is very very fun to listen too - make more mixes on the fly!
One of your best videos I think. excellent jam! I feel mad inspired. Ever consider using the TR-8S and its onboard FX to do something similar to the Pyramids? That's what I'm gonna try right now...
Damn Ricky! Incredible jam. Turned it up a bit too loud, neighbors knocked on my front door ... uh, oh I thought. Nope, they wanted to know where the dope music was coming from. Thanks dude! Release it, and I shall buy it!
Yes! That's what I'm looking for, it's always so inspiring to see you playing live! Would be interesting if we could have a closer look at the fx set up with your mixer.. I'm just a noob at this point 😜 thanks Enrique, keep it up!
watching you make music is not boring!
This general no-keyboards approach in all your setups actually makes a lot of sense. These tutorials are ace, would love to see one of your shows.
@Robert Grant I'm only talking about the use of limitations and simplification when building a setup for electronic music. Is he a musician? Yes. Samples and beats based electronic music is recognized by even the most sophisticated keyboard players, like Herbie Hancock and Brad Meldhau to name just two. A sampler or sequenced synth is every bit as valid an instrument as a guitar or piano.
@Robert Grant I differentiate between pop and higher art. This is definitely art
Thanks man! The limitations is what helps create unique and interesting things that may not come from a traditional keyboard based setup :)
Make a shirt that says: "This is DSP, But whatever."
I am legit surprised how great the Impact sounds. Killer sounds man.
There's something about the way you comment things, I just love these videos.
Love those moments where you get to enjoy your creations in real time - so satisfying! Makes it all worth it. Nice work!!

I was quite down, this jam got me feel better and I'm a bit inspired as well! Thank you!
Watching this instead of Netflix
Always
Ricky Tinez and chill 😆
watching this and netflix at the same time
Surpringly this end up emptying my wallet faster!
Pre-quarantine joke
Such an awesome groove with minimal instruments. Love this.
Great jam! Good to see this kind of content from you 👍🏻
arggghhh I love watching people make the music. You're killing me, Enrique!
Arturia needs to sponsor you, this pretty much sold me on the impact
I enjoined this video so much, Ricky! I own an Avalon too and I would go so far to say that it is my most important instrument. I absolutely love it. Like meditation. Instant bliss.
That was great man. I've been thinking about an Impact for a while and I love it in this kind of application.
The moment you found inspiration was GOLD! Keep on truckin good buddy!
sweeeeeeeet video man!!!! i can learn so much from this channel man, its one of my fav from all the content online, for real man.
Where can I find your dj chariot stuff? That was a stellar jam.
You're solely responsible for me hunting down an Avalon after watching your prior videos. I honestly slept on it prior, but went down a rabbit hole afterwards.

Ahaha. That’s the color to have! I love my white on white
Ha glad I’m not the only one, kind of got obsessive about it too posting wtb ads everywhere 😂
SeventeenSeconds yeah I got obsessed with finding one after this video. Also got white on white! Can't wait till it arrives!
Was doing this the other day with my impact, my workstatt and my mpc one. Was using the mpc input effects and i just stopped and wept...so grabbing my behringer pro one and my guitar pedal board. Great job Ricky, inspiring me to get at it...
I just love the sound of the drumbrute and pairthat with a Bass Line synth is just a super funky groove
This is a better review. Usually, this machine always sounds the same. I will be running whatever I get, through a DBA ROOMS, and whatever else, I decide to run it through.

“This Is actually perform live” ... I can’t wait to get to that point! It’s much more interesting to listen to other musicians than myself
This was intensely satisfying to watch 😌
This DJ Chariot is messing with my mind :-) Ricky Tinez advised me about a sampler but DJ Chariot makes me thinking about the drumbrute impact. I love techno & acid and this video has both. Great video!
This was actually really helpful for me, as someone who just got a drumbrute impact! Thanks!
The more I see this Drumbrute Impact in action the more I want one... sick video man! Love your stuff!
Thanks! im super impressed by it, i know it'll eventually be a bit repeptitive, but it serves its purpose so well.
@@RickyTinez that's the problem with non-sampler tools, at some point your reach its full potential.
I love the impact, bought it recently and it’s so versatile, I love how it has it’s known unique sound rather than just ripping off Roland gear like everyone else
Damn that Pyramids is goooood !!!
Love your videos.
And that Bass and Kick combination 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Ricky - your videos are such great quality. Mastery of so much gear and a fantastic ear. I'm always looking forward to your next video.
Thanks Aaron! that means a ton!
“Lost inspiration, turned on the effects pedal, gained inspiration, moved on” Love it 👍🏻😁
I usually don't enjoy techno, but watching this jam is making me love it!
You should definitely continue uploading more freestyles!
i love you man! such a joy to watch this making
ACEEEEEEED!!!!! i enjoyed watching /listening to this video....good upload man, Chariots on Fire 🔥
damn this was sick! loving this content, dude
very cool setup, didn't know about your other monikers! I also really dig running drums through the Pyramids you get so many unexpected results
yea man, VCF, Ricky Tinez, Dj Chariot, and more but those should stay hidden hahaha.
Thanks for watching!

less is more... sometimes more is more cool though ;-) but not in this case!
I think it highlights what you can do if you know your gear inside out!
Hell yeah. I make acid house and use no more than 3 synths, and a mixer. No DAW either. Plug and play. All day, everyday!
Jack Acid ah , and your millions songs where are ?
@@ilmondodifaxe8216 ?
This is the vid that inspired me to get started with my synths and pedals. Thanks Ricky - TomTom
Yeeees my man Mr Martinez slamming down the funkee techno beats. That's what's bangin on the block. More of that DJ Chariot please.😁🙃😁

you don't need a 11 synths, you just need talent tuned to 11. so yeah, nailed it. Thank you for the inspiration. Time to buy that EQD Pyramids
Actually, you did something other than jamming:
1. you made me consider Arturia analogue drum mashine,
2. I started believe in myself as amateur musician ;-)
damn! that's a win win! Thanks for the support Matthew

Goosebumps don’t lie!
Nice jam!! 7:24 with the phased kick 😊
Awesome to hear something with a bit of a different flavour from you. I always love your house grooves but this is sick, well done, really loved it!
Love the fun you're having with it :) Inspiring to dust off my limited setup for fun. Interesting with the flanger pedal.
My kinda track this!
I find layering the analog kick from the Impact (with an exaggerated delay) on a sample kick on the Digitakt really works well.
You'd definitely dig a small eurorack setup to pair with these two. I can hear the distortion of the Touell Skouarn Sonveskan mixer and preamp dirtying this up real nice.

Hahaa. Let me know when you rent it. I’d love to come test a few things too
15:08 - 17:30 is just magical
The Avalon is just so freaking sick

Tweaking the pitch knob on the DBI bassdrum is one of my favourite things
I really like how well you know how to work your machines,,,very inspiring !
it is sooo fun to watch your videos! it is a anti-depressive positive boost in my mind ;) thank you !
Sick stuff! I forgot about that avalon synth.. so cool how theres filter carts. Keep kickin it dude
DB was the 1st drum machine I ever Sampled. It was soo easy to understand. But I got the TR-08 instead. HAPPY? YES. Wish I had a Twin with a DB? ABSOLUTELY.
This is such a great post. Lots of love for this! 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶💥💥🔥

That buildup you made in the end was so freaking good :0
Live for these jam sessions🙌🏼
Sounds great! One of my favs, hope you release this.
P.S. Would love to remix.
Thanks man. I just got impact and Roland se02.. I am learning some great stuff here. So thanks the more details the better...thanks again. Playing micro freak on top.

looks so much fun! Great vid
I like the random section. Bravooo! :)
I built an almost identical setup independently of this video. I love this!
My tool of choice in case of Techno is shuffle... it makes beats so much more dynamic and groovy
Sitting here at work bobbin my head to this beat! Sick!
face wrinklingly good, ricky seamless
Can tell you have some serious seat time on those machines
Omg at 9.26 that bass part 👌👌👌😍
You inspire me both to keep making music aaand getting a better desk ;) abrazo
I hope you could do a video with a tb3 this pedal and a drumbrute impact, behringer is making new versions of classic drum machines
One of your best videos I think. excellent jam! I feel mad inspired.
Ever consider using the TR-8S and its onboard FX to do something similar to the Pyramids? That's what I'm gonna try right now...
Hi Ricky I'm really enjoying your videos thanks for posting
Love this Vibe - You've given me inspiration for sure!
Amazing stuff man, thanks for sharing. Gave me plenty of inspiration (simplicity!)
Damn Ricky! Incredible jam. Turned it up a bit too loud, neighbors knocked on my front door ... uh, oh I thought. Nope, they wanted to know where the dope music was coming from. Thanks dude! Release it, and I shall buy it!
haha that's awesome!
man, this was great. thank you for this upload
5:23 The Plane that flow above you was the *Riser FX* of your song
such tension
Another dope video, makes me want the avalon
Them split personalities workin' together!
Can you show this with a roland tr8 and reverb on the bassline?
whoa didn't know you had a channel! killer stuff bro!
Thanks man! I appreciate the support
Mental as heck man. That's fire.
