  • In this video, we dive into the unique and ever-evolving process of hardware electronic music creation. Don't be fooled, complexity isn't always the key to a hit track. Embrace the basics, keep it simple and let the music tell its story. Working with a rich lineup of hardware including the Elektron Octatrack (w/ FX template), Digitakt, Digitone, Syntakt, the Roland VT-4 vocoder, and the Roland TB-03, we explore how the 'limitations' of these tools can actually enhance the songwriting process. 2 hour songwriting session in under 7 minutes.

    Another great video! If you wanted to use a MIDI keyboard in this setup, say a Keystep, how would you configure it so that it could communicate with each device using the auto channel function? Would the Octatrack pass the midi notes along to the other boxes? I found that it was tricky to get this to work with only the Syntakt, Digitakt and Digitone.

    Are you controlling notes of the tb-03 with elektron? If so are you able to program slides/accents that way?
