First thing I enjoyed playing with was the sequencer and getting it to behave some what like a straight 16 beat part/ measure. I like syncing up with Pocket Operators haha. This little thing is awesome and so is your channel. Keep 'em jam'n! 🎶
The idea is good, but here are three thoughts: You could have gone to 1/2 or 1/4 with beat. Then the interaction with other devices is easier, or the bpm a little more plausible. You can multiply a finished, repeating bassline via the menu with 'dubl'. You lose the bass note when recording the melody.
Hey man can you just record a live take? or does the J6 lock it in always? On the T8 for bass press the keyboard button and lets you do a 16/32 live real handy
When you were adding extra notes to the initial main baseline, how come it didn’t just add the notes overtop? Instead it replaced them? I thought you could play four simultaneous notes per step?
You can play simultanous notes per step but i jumped an octave and couldn't get to that bass note to press it at the same time as the higher note. Basically you can press more than 1 note whilst recording each step (a chord if you like too) but in order to keep that original bass note i would have had to of pressed it together with the higher note and i'd shifted an octave i wasn't able to access it. Perhaps with a midi keyboard plugged in you would be able to play notes across multiple octaves simultanously. Hope this makes sense.
@@davehyper7835 ahhhh ok. I would have thought you could just add a note overtop, I didn’t realize you had to play all the notes simultaneously in order to make a chord on a step
@@schmapps1You could accomplish that with one additional step after live recording the melody: edit each step with a melody note and add its missing bass note back in.
For fun mostly. Plus I wanted to reiterate the original video posted by VolcaNiceD. I hardly use the function tbh but it's fun to play around with these things. Make of it what you will padawan ;-)
when you change the sound, the parameters from the potentiometers are no longer the same and you can't make the connection from one sound to another.....all the new range has this handicap , no one asked for the rotary potentiometers, but still you can't get over that serious problem.... it's a joke from Roland

Glad I found your channel! I get my J6 in a few days and I’ll be coming back to this video for sure.

Thx Dave, not much to find about recording. Helped a lot!
The bass note kinda sounds like goodbye horses
Very cool. Thanks for posting, and sharing. 💫
You made this machine easier to understand
Cool trick, thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the help, it sounded dope!
Many thanks! Glad you found it helpful.
a question ? How to use the Roland S-1 Aira sound. Using a Novation launch key keyboard.
What parameters or settings should be activated in S-1?
Not sure sorry.
Make sure the CH (channel) is set to whatever midi channel your controller is outputting.
Nice tip!

Hi mate, yes you can do live recording same as the T8
It got very Depeche Modey! 🎉
lol now that's a massive compliment!
Damn! The J-6 hadnt interested me much until I saw this!!
It's a really fun bit of kit for the price!
Well done but what's about S-1?
lol i don't have the S-1
Awesome
Thanks! But the credit really goes to VolcaNiced.

@@ChrisLoos1 ahhh ok. Too bad you can’t just ‘live overdub’ on the J6
What da heck is that thingy to your left?
lol that's a Roland R-07 recorded. The audio out from the J6 goes into for cleaner recording. It's a wicked little device actually.
I have no idea why you did this, or what the benefit was … ? Squeezed out extra steps? Easier to sync with other devices? Teach me, Senpai. 🙏🏼

@@davehyper7835 Haha, OK, will do - Cheers. ☺️
Was just watching a few of VolcaNiceD’s videos; good stuff!
Thanks for the reply! Be well! 😎🤙🏼

Exactly the same with the TR8s. Annoying to say the least.
@@davehyper7835 it was good to be annoying.....it's like having a cigarette and no fire to light
But isn’t that how, like, all synths work when you load a preset VS turning dials to make new sound?
