WTF???!!! Fire bro fire !!!!!!

[@TaylorMcFerrinMusic]

Excellent

[@supertarashi]

Fcking sick!! Much love

[@rubend.g.2934]

I come back to this video every few months and just am blown away by how well you use the octatrack. Would love to see a breakdown of your process with this track or any really.

[@Synthometer]

Thanks mate I really appreciate it! It's gonna be tough for me to find the files back sadly so it's not really possible. Something I enjoyed to do on this one was to control the Minitaur directly with the OT's knobs to break its sounds, and then reset it with FUNCT + PTN, and combined with effects like reverb, filter, delay control, and lofi was giving cool results.

Sonic Neutronic thanks for the sub 😊

[@TundrahSounds]

Sweet! Your jam sounds very good, and that nice view with your pretty little setup and camera bokeh doesn't make it any worse. Subscribed right away! Tempest ftw

[@Synthometer]

Tundrah Sounds thanks mate, glad to see Tempest enthusiasts around :)

[@TundrahSounds]

Synth-o-meter are you using your zoom h6 to record the music? How many inputs?

[@Synthometer]

@@TundrahSounds I do, and only two inputs: left and right of the OT's main output.

[@TundrahSounds]

Cool! So some of the fx processing is done within the Octatrack, right?

[@Synthometer]

@@TundrahSounds Exactly.

[@ColibrisMusicLive]

so groovy!

[@LuisHouses]

amazing!🔥🔥🔥

[@squoblat]

this is immense

[@Synthometer]

Koss Billingham Thanks 😄

[@Video_cut1]

super!

[@tclak]

Nice vid. What is the little fx looking box to the left of you?

[@Synthometer]

tclak it’s not an fx box 😄 that’s the recorder zoom h6

[@MegaTrapperKeeper]

Amazing 👌

[@Synthometer]

Harlan Miller Thanks!

[@StepRecorder]

Is the bass coming from the Minitaur? I'm asking because it seems like you're tweaking the cutoff on the bassline, but you don't touch the Minitaur so are you controlling it's parameters from the Octatrack? Overall, a really dope jam. Would be interested to hear where the samples are coming from. Cheers.

[@Synthometer]

Thanks! This is correct, I mapped some Midi CC from the OT so that they controls the Minitaur's Cutoff.

[@micedevice2389]

Hi, i’ve seen your performances for a couple of years, and they are excellent!
I have one question; the hihat on pad 1 in the Tempest is a sample from it or you sound design it with the analog tools or is it triggering a sample in the OT?
People complain about the Tempest missing the 909 open hi hat and this sounds very similar.

[@Synthometer]

Hey, the OT triggers everything on its own, and I rarely build sounds from scratch on the Tempest, so this sound is most likely a sample from it.
To answer those complains, the Tempest offers so many modulations for each sound/pad it's impossible not to get what you want.

[@micedevice2389]

You mean that the OT is sequencing the Tempest too, and the Tempest is not running it’s internal sequencer?

[@Synthometer]

@@micedevice2389 In this performance I don't think the OT is sequencing the Tempest at all, so it runs its own sequencer. However this is something I happen to do quite often now.

[@micedevice2389]

@@SynthometerOk, thank you for answering my questions and sharing your way of making music...and your music of course.

[@babylonbroken1601]

Not my style of music at all. But mad respect on the skills and production!

[@Synthometer]

Thanks alot!

[@GWI2009]

Is the Tempest sending MIDI to the Minitaur?

[@Synthometer]

No, it's sequenced by the octatrack.

[@TobShowHost]

Guy, you should do this professionally! :o

[@sonicretard4537]

very cool
