Thanks Justin.

SO interesting bc it’s always felt that the Octatrack had a similar groove with MIDI to the MMT-8, it really reminded me of it

Just replaced my Octa MkII buttons and was pretty disappointed that, despite also asking for replacement knobs, none were included. Shipping and duty cost me damn near as much as the caps did, so almost $100 Canadian, but they came from Sweden in like 3 days.

I bought the pack but there is no sysex file for kicks, only the whole project on the tonsofdrums :(

Where I can find to buy new buttons for my ?

Where do you source replacement keycaps?

I just can't get the new firmware in my Blackbox. I download it to my Windows desktop and drag the bin file to my sd card but the Blackbox does not recognise it.

Just bought it on sale, thanks for the informative vid!

Thanks !

💯 agreed

Really thanks for the tips 😊

i thought blackbox also only had 16 chops and not more, and ther eisnt even a star tand end point to set by yourself on a blackbox.

Didnt know some of those… really cool. Thx

is there a way to automate or modulate the process of creating random locks. As designed each random lock is a static thing which on the long run is boring or needs user intervention all time.

I hear ya, i use koala as well but often go to spdx tangerine and blackbox, even the po 33 one of them will solve the problem!

I bought my first HR-16 in April 1988. Got rid of it early 90s and always regretted it. Got a nice clean unit off eBay recently and having fun using it again.

Neat vid. I've had mine for a few years and love it. She looks naked without the side panels. Thanks for the efforts!

So many slots you won’t know where to begin!

glad to see this, does the new replaced button still have the soft touch surface on it?

All good thanks.

Thankyou 👋🎯👍

How much did they charge for the full set of button replacements I bet it was not cheap

Is it possible to get the LM-1 Mod? If So i'd like to purchase

Thank you

How do I find your stuff on eBay? Do you see EPROMS or entire units only or what?

Will this work with the HR-16B?

Wow this is crazy! wish I'd had this option in the late 80s. I had the MMT8 as well. would have loved this.

when you first hit those toms I thought we were about to get rickrolled

had this, and the sequencer, and the Linn. That was a great drum machine.

Who did the mod?

dope but no punch

Glad to see it’s easy to do this. The only thing I could use swapped is my A knob. The push to clear a lock function doesn’t work 100%. But this will need some soldering which is not one of my abilities lol.

maybe if i get one of these i can finish a track 🤣

vintage!!!!! man this looks like fun

didnt know a pretty machine could get any better looking

where is the trick? if i hold down the trigger and turn level, it is adjusting the level and not scrolling the slots?

Can it emulate a double mouse click?

The factory kit in Roger’s Beats actually has “Simmons Tom” programmed already using the triangle wave and white noise. Very similar to this.

My first drum machine. I used to use it to trigger my Emax2 sampler. Speaking of "swing", there were a lot of New Jack Swing songs made using this drum machine. I saw it in so many studios that I ended up buying it myself.

I love this Drum machine, but it’s frustrating that it forgets the sound selection and routing as soon as you leave program. at least with mine, every time you have to reconfigure all the sounds and routing. Really a bummer.

Thanks for that info….very useful and definitely right, there is very little info on TH-cam about the ins and outs of this beast! Are you able to access hard drive storage say on a computer or portable through usb?

Tip I just realized the other day: Play a beat, alter the beat parameters while playing till you like say the new kick drum at lower osc pitch (for example) YOU CAN SAVE THAT KD TO KICK DRUMS and it will sound exactly as it sounded with beat/parameter effects. Saves lots of sound design time. You took the wooden panels off? Looks good, thanks for the vid :-)

This case is also great for the Plinky.

Would like to see more of you rocking the 1010 blackbox. great video.

Thanks for explaining! Just got a Tempest and had been wondering about the exact same things. The Tempest looks great without the wooden side cheeks BTW, very retro-vintage. I also decided to not use the cheeks. :)

so many old pieces of gear had multiple outputs. I wish more modern gear had that

Hefty price tag for a rompler.

I thank you for these insights, I was dramatically inspired by your first message about abandoning your first Octatrack to eventually owning a 3rd Octatrack. There is that horrendous feeling when you get home with one's first OT and a few months later still feeling lost; so True. Perseverance always pays off.... And this should be the first message on the OT Manual.

thank you for this, im going to back up my files before install the drum files you made, but can you make a quick video on how to install SysEx files?

I'm searching online on how to DIY a bag for op-1 because my wife made me sell off our sewing machine a while back >.>
