I’m so unbeliveably hooked on your work ! You truly breath life and unknowing depth into that machine, thanks for researching and having the interest in sharin it with the world. I sincerely hope to see future content of yours ! Oh hell yeah I do like those videos :) Best wishes ! Took me 1 hour plus to watch, cause I wrote it all down to have a digital cheat sheet, with all your techniques, you explained to this point. Hope to be able to extend on that ! Best wishes for your creative process !
Really clever implementation! Full on granular clouds. Love the idea of messing with the stereo spread. I wonder if rather than the button-mashing note input, using global trig probability might be an interesting approach? Then you have real-time control over the density of the clouds as well.
Thanks a lot man, I love your videos. Funny you say that because I’ve found using your random arpeggio method + trig conditions gives amazing results. Lots more to explore for sure
@@dialectricStudios in the business world I believe this is know as *synergy*? I'm also wondering if a per-track microtiming offset for all steps on the track would also give a nice even spread? But as you show with the random start-time, even-ness might not be something worth aspiring to in this technique?

@@dialectricStudios and @Oscillator Sink funny to find you both here casually chatting wizard magic… you're the ones I watch the most. Keep up the good work and thank you 🙏
Thank you my friend. This is super helpful and very fun. I'll have to watch a few times to get all the steps. Side question, do you know if you can sample the sequence you created with the Digitakt so you can feed it back to say trig1 and then can add a beat to it?
When simultaneously applying Random LFO to all the tracks do the random values consistently match on each track or is each LFO’s value differently randomize?
Really great and creepy stuff. I am going to watch this a few times…Some of the sounds at the beginning remind me of what happens when I drop sounds into Virtual ANS, one of the coolest virtual synth emulations ever made…iOS. Scary stuff, and now AUV3…I see the Digitakt as so much more than a beatbox and find the kind of work you are making very inspiring. I just wish the process of menu diving in the machine was a little less clunky and a little more intuitive. Sigh, I just have to keep grinding away with it…
Thanks I appreciate it. Looking back at this tutorial its a bit clunky and a very specific use case and doesn’t quite show off the real power of time stretching like the one that’s in rhe works rn. If you enjoyed this stay tuned more fun stuff coming :)
@@dialectricStudios , I will because the music you are making with it is credible and intriguing. What usually brings me back to a channel is when the presenters transcend the technical knowledge they have of the gear to create something beautiful and musical. I hear that in what you are doing and that’s the thing that counts for me. You make the Digitakt sound like a powerful musical instrument, and not just a flashy toy. Also, I like that you reveal the snags that sometimes occur in the process of pushing its boundaries around. For me when digging into its odd workflow, that also challenges me to go after a different musical thing than I do with other gear. It can lead to very exciting and unprecedented sound design and music.
Funny enough it turns out you can play copyrighted music in videos all day long they just won’t let you monetize which isn’t a huge deal IMO. Thx for the heads up tho and thanks for watching!
@@purelucknoskill5158 no I think my phone doesn’t work with a usb lighting to usb b maybe I have to have the camera adapter for it to work my audio plays thru my phone even when the cable is in
I just don't quite get why you need to do this thing at 8:01 ... with the rec-'typing', you create trigs, but not on the 1/16 mark, but many more not 'quantized' in between de standard 1-16 trigs?
You’re exactly right. Compare it to using a single track where there can only be one 1/16th note per step. Doing it like this there’s up to 8 trigs within a single 1/16th note, each of them slightly offset from each other in time. Each grain only lasts a short time (determined by the amp envelope) so many overlapping grains ensures there’s smooth transitions between them. In reality you can get away with as little as two overlapping tracks, but all 8 + button mashing is a quick n fun way to escape the harsh robotic sound of a low rez stretch. Hope that helps

This is just straight gold, I have been playing all evening with DT and the time stretching getting amazing results. Thanks for sharing!
Ok - I was on the fence about the DT for ambient - internal debate CLOSED ;) thank you very much for sharing your wizardry !!
That outro song though... Perfect fit. It's how I feel when I'm playing with my DT's knobs all night long.
Bow chicka wow wow 😂
Halo & Digitakt, 2 of the best creations brought together in a way I never dreamed possible…
This is wild. You're like a magician with the DT. I'm excited to see the next video!
Excellent presentation bro. I dont think i blinked once during the whole video. Thanks for sharing your skills. Kudos.
8:08 Best ever synth tutorial moment of all time ever.

Genius. Thanks!
THANKS!!!!!! 4 sharing this. BEST wishes for 2022.
More coming soon happy 2022 🎊
Wow! Thanks for usb input function from smartphones!

10x! Excellent explanation, keep up the good work 🔥🔥
so good! big thank you!
Man, that's amazing. Thanks for sharing this technique!!!
Whoop whoop! Lovely stuff
The day I'll manage to get my head around this, is the day I will have solved the mysteries of the Universe
that day might be sooner than you think if my next vid turns out ok 😉
@@dialectricStudios cheers to that!
Thank you time stretching wizard!
thanks for sharing,
Hey. How did you set up digitakt to show waveform while hitting different triggs?
I was wondering about this too! Make sure the box under Settings (cog wheel) > System > Remember Subpage is checked.
Brilliant!
So cool man
Thank you my friend. This is super helpful and very fun. I'll have to watch a few times to get all the steps.
Side question, do you know if you can sample the sequence you created with the Digitakt so you can feed it back to say trig1 and then can add a beat to it?
Wow this is awesome ♨️♨️

each track's randomness is different
this is the coolest thing ever! :-D
Glad you like it ☺️
No? I did NOT know you could zoom your samples and was twisting like a madman.
Kind of makes me want an additional digitakt
Right???
SUBBED!!!!
So Dope 👊♥️
thx I appreciate it

very stressful camera angle, very good info. Thanks bud
Noted thanks for the feedback
Hol up. You can just plug phone USB straight to the Digitakt???? Why did I never know this until now.
Class compliant usb audio baby 😎
Excellent stuff, but you might want to be careful of the © police 😬

@@dialectricStudios hurray! Keep them coming, you’re doing great work!
"for educational purposes"
The halo sample lmfao
I try usb to sample from my iPhone but it doesnt work the music still plays on the iPhone is there Some settings or somthing ?
It was plug and play for me on iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14
@@dialectricStudios strange i have the same phone maybe the cable then, thanks
No other cable not working either do you have one from Apple or did you just used a Cable ?i have 2 from native Instruments and both not working
Did you check settings inside digitakt? Maybe you need to enable audio via usb

Seems like way too much button pushing and screen hopping just to do these things in the end all you can program is 4 bars
i'm having fun the whole time :D
@@dialectricStudios thats all that matters in the end along with a dope beat
PLEASE.......stop this madness.. sounds like garbage.. get a GR-1 if you want a granular God! (great video tho 😉)
You are the GR-1 if you try hard enough ;)
@@dialectricStudios the digitakt is dope AF but its no granular synth
