  • After showing you my one synth only technique, I'd like to go deeper and walk through my full sound design process creating a dark synthwave track for my next album.
    I will use Octatrack to sequence the Roland Boutique Sh01a and then some of my favorite effects:
    - Fairfield Circuitry Shallow Water
    -Strymon DIG
    -Death By Audio Rooms
    -OTO Boum
    Gonna be a very distorted and ominous journey ;)
    00:00 - Introduction
    05:16 - Bass sound design and first track
    11:41 - Adding more tracks
    18:14 - Consideration on how I approach sound design and recording
    Listen to my new album:

    Wow…first class sound design bro. Very subtil and deep. All what I like. Him from France.
    Very deep and progressive electronic music like this one are never played in club or in techno or electronic parties. This is very sad. It used to be, during afters in private parties in the 90’s but today never.

    Awesome video man...stacked some pedals after watching this and got some great sounds. The Boum is a beast and def is one of my favs too. I always used it 100% wet but after mixing it in with the original and using the filter I love the dark sound it can create. That was a great tip. Cheers.

    I use NI Maschine as my setup brain, but I've been bumping into a few limitations that really get under my skin. You're slowly winning me over with the Octatrack, but I'm also drawn to the Deluge because it's cheaper and has built-in sound engines. You mentioned Deluge used to be your brain. I'm hoping you can break down why you swapped it up one day.

    • @seqord
      @seqord 3 года назад +1

      Hey, they're both great! I''m gonna say if you're finding Maschine limiting, then OT is the way to go. The Deluge's portability and quicker sequencing are really nice, but the OT will take you to much more interesting places.

    19:45 in is a perfect sound for me, that hypnotic acid sound. Very Richie Hawtin or some Boston 168 sound's. I'm going to buy this exact set up, but I don't have your ability. Do you teach on your patreon? My plan is to invest in my studio and then figure out where to get lesson's.

    Sorry if this is obvious -- when you add the second track, it seems to be also configured to use MIDI channel 1. And so on with track 3. At first I thought this was sure to cause some problem, because the notes would be stepping on each other. But, is it working because the SH-01A has 4-note polyphony? It works as long as you don't try to play more than 4 notes simultaneously? Thanks for this video -- the different length sequences were sounding really great.

    • @OoraMusic
      @OoraMusic  3 года назад +1

      yes, having 4 note of polyphony i can use it as 4 separate tracks. It has some limits of course, but that leads to happy accidents
