that is so much fun for how small it is using just those two boxes! nice sounds as usual too, would LOVE to hear you play a 4 hour set in a small dark warehouse like the good old days I remember so well
Yeah those two mini boxes are super fun. Ideally I should have brought a second oscillator to swap and have a couple different flavours of sound, but I also like the idea of pushing the 158 ! 4h live set sounds a bit much for now ahah but I'm down for 2h :) Missing the warehouses too...
Great video. I know this is years ago now, but you can externally clock pams by using the din sync cable ALM make, as the digitakt can output din sync from the second midi output. 0hp and maybe slightly easier than going via ableton!

Hi Lucas. Nice video. Also for me that i am starting to collect modules, i really would like to build some system not really big, just with few modules but full of quality, like you have there. May i ask you about all the names of the modules you have? I just can recognise the filters from Verbos.
You can clock Pam's directly from the digitakt via a DIN adapter that is sold by ALM. Essentially you just configure the digitakt midi out to be DIN and then plug the adapter into Pams clock in and Run and set the relevant PPQN settings
Really good stuff, thanks! The only thing I have realised is, when you have samples which are so long and additionally set up to infinity, there's not much you can do in terms of live muting/un muting unless you play live with the Digitakt's internal mixer, what is your take on that?
Yes, when you mute the track the sample will play to the end... Actually I don't mind too much. It's nice sounding if there is delay and reverb on the sound otherwise it's too abrupt. You can even use it to your advantage when changing patterns as the sound will continue playing it will make a nice transition.
Man this is really beautiful stuff. Don't understand everything, might have to look some things back, but overall great esthetic of lots of offset polymeter stuff without it just sounding random. Inspiring sound!
The Digitakt doesn't have individual outs from which to send the pulses to the modular; and in any case I wouldn't want to tie an entire instrument channel just for sync. If I'm using them stand alone I'll find a way to fit the Pamela's midi expander to have them in sync; or get one of Intellijel 1u midi tiles.
The modular allows you to tweak the knobs at random, throw modulation around and is immensely more fun, but Aalto is a great "complex oscillator" VST which might get you close of the core sound.

Always good Lucas, thank you!
Thanks a lot 🌀
congratulations for your videos, they are so inspiring, thanks
Thank you !

Super inspirant 👍
Merci !
Always on point, amazing sound!
Thank you !
Tres cool ! Intéressant l’idée d’utiliser le LxP avec le function pour créer plusieurs séquences …
Ça sonne bien 😉
Merci ! Oui j'aime bien utiliser les deux entrées du LxD avec deux signaux différents.
Great content!…much appreciate.
Thank you !
Great vid! subbed
Thank you !
Ça donne presque envie de racheter une digitakt! hyper inspirant
C'est mon deuxième... Je l'ai pris pour le live à la base mais c'est un super compagnon de voyage aussi :)

Yeah I think I'll do that in the future ! Thank you :)
Incredibly helpful comment. Had no idea about this existing. Wish I had known that before I bought the PEXP expander :)

Thank you ! It's nothing too complicated but many mini sequences or modulation added that end up making a short sequence hopefully not too boring.
Do you maybe have a modulargrid for this one :) ?
it's Pamela's New Workout, Model 158, Function, LxD, Tirana II and Dual Four Pole + Steppy and Duatt in 1u.
Why don't you record the Modular pules from Ableton and then load that into the Digitakt?
The Digitakt doesn't have individual outs from which to send the pulses to the modular; and in any case I wouldn't want to tie an entire instrument channel just for sync. If I'm using them stand alone I'll find a way to fit the Pamela's midi expander to have them in sync; or get one of Intellijel 1u midi tiles.
do you really need a modular synth to make this sounds? (rhetorical question)
The modular allows you to tweak the knobs at random, throw modulation around and is immensely more fun, but Aalto is a great "complex oscillator" VST which might get you close of the core sound.
