- Hello friends!
In this video I try to breakdown Tables on the Dirtywave M8. I've seen a lot of people struggle wrapping their heads around this particular feature, especially those who haven't had experience with LSDJ (don't worry though, I didn't have any experience with it either!) So check out this video and let me know if you have any questions.
I have an album coming out in the next couple months, so it'd be awesome if you could follow my instagram account: / aliatheseer

Quick Clarification: I use the terms "Asymmetric" and "Asynchronous" interchangeably in this video, but when referring to looping material with different lengths, as I am, they're called Asynchronous Loops. Thanks
Really appreciate your extremely well-spoken, clear and concise explanation of tables. The M8 community should reference this video for a well-formed tables tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
What a pleasant and well thought out tutorial! Would LOVE to see more tutorials like this one covering other aspects of the M8. Keep it up!
I finally understood tables after owning a m8 for 2 years! You are awesome, thank you very much.
Such a great video. Would love to see you create a song from start to end as a tutorial. You’re so clear when you explain things.
WHAT A BEAUTY OF A SKIN! :D
That tutorial was excellent. I hope you do more. I look forward to hearing your album. Thanks.
Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the community, it was very usefull indeed to clarify the table concept.
Fantastic video. Best presentation I have seen on the M8 (em-eight).
This is easily the best explanation of tables I’ve ever seen. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain it so clearly. You’re an excellent teacher!
Great explanations and examples, keep it up!
Nice explanation. Thanks!
Brilliant video. Learned a lot, I hope to be using this soon!
Lovely run-through. Thanks for taking the time to making it, was really useful :)
Well structured tut! Would have saved me weeks! ❤
Really effective simple examples and explanations. Thanks!
Great explanation, very clear. Thank you!
Thank you for explaining this. New to the M8 so very useful stuff
Really clear and easy to understand. Thanks
Thanks for putting this together. Everyone else already commended your ability to explain your process, I just wanted to +1.
Even if you only have 1 video up, I'm a fan now :D
Great first video, wow
Nice tutorial! 👌
Thank you! Cheers!
Please make more
Awesome tutorial, got some useful tips out of this!
How do you get the selection marker to look that way? Mine is just a fully colored rectangle.
I'm on the 3.3 beta firmware. It's available on the m8 discord if you're interested in trying it out! I like it, but I was so used to the old cursor I had to change my theme to keep myself from being weirded out by the new one.
Thanks a lot for sharing. What I don't really get: At around the 15:48 mark you're explaining that the Finetune [FIN02] in the table row 0 alternates the pitch. Row 1 however doesn't contain the FIN command. Does any empty cell in table "reset" the value that was changed above it, so it reverts to whatever value is set from the main instrument page? Does it work this way for all FX besides FIN as well?
Oh, great question! So an empty cell will appear to "reset" the value, as you say, but only in a Table set to note increment mode (Table Tic 00). For faster Tables, changes made on the Table persist until a new note or a new command occurs (this can be observed in my example @ 09:24). Whenever a new note is triggered it defaults to whatever values are stored on the instrument page. So, it's not actually the empty cell that's resetting the value in the example you referenced. The new note resets the value, the Table just doesn't modify the default value for that step because the cell is blank. Does this make sense?
Basically, it's just like when using FX commands on the Phrase page: the changes persist until the next note comes along and resets the instrument to its default state.
@@aliatheseer I see, that makes sense! Thanks for clearing that up. I feel like maybe one of the reasons tables feel so daunting is because of these complex interactions, which may seem erratic at first glance, when you don't see the full picture quite yet
Excellent tutorial ! 👏👏🎶
Hi Thanks for that great tutorial! May I ask you about your cursor? How did you get that cursor with blinking edges instead of the whole field turning one color?
Hello! I'm on the beta firmware which features the new cursor. You can find it on the Dirtywave discord server if you would like to check it out for yourself
You got me wondering if a game boy controller will work with a headless M8?
I've seen people on the discord server use those abernic emulation machines to run headless!
