Quick note: I LOVE the Boum. But won’t be using it live after all. I’ll be filming a video on this tiny eurorack setup I have that’ll be my end of chain! It’s sick and I can’t wait to show you.
Had the BOUM for one week now and have to admit that with the right settings it smokes my RLNA+Sidechain HPF Combo for Live use. I mostly make Live 140BPM techno with my partner and it just adds that grit and glue I need. Had an idea for a modular "mastering" chain with a stereo eq, messor comp and some saturation/distortion but I would cost twice as much than the BOUM here in Europe.
Hi Ricky, I have a perfect solution for you on how to use Sp404 mk2. Load it with multiple long ambient/organic samples, like rain, cityscape, people talking and just some fooley noises. Those samples can be even up to 1hour long if I'm not mistaken. Than you set the pads to loop mode without gate, trigger all of them to keep them running, and just mute them all. This way you get a free running noise machine. Now you can solo/unmute the pads you want to use, and you use the isolator of filter to slowly mix them in and out. In other words, it's a perfect tool for adding organic noises of the track intro/outro sections, or when all other parts are filtered down. Organic stuff like this will also make your set much more interesting. It's super easy to setup, so just give it a quick try. Good luck :)
Isn't it time for you to get in contact with Stimming for a nice video on his own Mastering chain device that he co developed and that is now released (very expensive, but I'm sure you can work something out)
The color pallet and composition on this video is perfect. I love the lanterns putting just a slight glow on fern frond and the keyboards, the Rembrandt lighting on your face, the muted colors of your shirt, hat, the wallpaper, then the little pop of bold colors of your electronics in the corner.
Nice to see the Dawless setup back. The first ever synth tube video I saw was one of your Dawless setup videos. Glad to see you sticking to the 3 pieces of kit rule. My first dawless setup was inspired by that video and I still make all my music using no more than 3 pieces of kit at a time.
Just a tip about trigless program changes. I would set it's condition to 1st so it triggers only once when the pattern changes. It seems that it is not an issue with PEAK but I had a synth which would reset a preset with every loop of a pattern. And that's a problem if You want to change parameters of a synth manually on the fly.
Hardly. I had a way better set-up in the 90s - Korg workstation and a big sampler was all I needed to get up on stage live. This set-up is way more (needlessly) complicated and far less capable.
That's a sweet setup. Thank you for taking the time to explain how your signal chain / effects processing / Midi / tracks are all routed. I think a lot of content creators gloss over that part, but it's essential to set up your gear correctly to maximize the utility of each piece. I was a little surprised your Hologram pedal didn't make it, but I guess the table was getting crowded?
That's a really nice and compact setup! Thanks for sharing. Here's something that's helped me overcome the 16 banks in OT vs 8 banks in DT scenario (as long as you use 8 patterns or less per track). Once you get to Bank I (9) in OT, it restarts to A in DT. By using patterns 1-8 in banks A-H and ptns 9-16 in banks I-P, you can structure a set of up to 16 tracks using the OT as master, making the most out of parts in banks in the OT.
The whole video is great as always, but holy crap the program change on the Digitakt has always frustrated me and now my mind is blown. dang, thank you
that’s pretty smart idea to sent 4 digi tracks to same synth and effectively spread melody to 4 idependently mute-able layers.. Very creative approach !
Way to go for getting back into performing live again! Another option is to use the 404 end of chain for performace effects AND compression. I've been doing that and its been working for me so far.
Looks great! I miss my DT, I sold it to get my second OT, which is awesome but I still end up missing my 8tracks of drums from the DT. But anyways I wanted to say that perhaps what you are missing here is something like a Novation launchpad pro mk3. It really becomes the headquarters for all. As a midi controller for the OT, you can also play keys in scales for your peak. And you can create crazy 64 sound sample chains on the OT. Highly recommend!
I kinda wanted a Sp 404 until I discovered how EZBOT uses his Octatrack. I watched a few of his vids and bought his template and now I can make my own SP-like effects.
I love all the equipment and appreciate your talent. One of my takes on “Dawless” that is simpler and faster way to make music. This setup seems more complicated than a computer with DAW. Thanks for the video.
Hey Ricky I got quite a similiar setup. Try Roland TR-6s for the transitions. It really is a monster for his size and can run 100% on battery (as you probably know). Great work and keep it up!
I just got an RNLA for a bit under US$200 (which turned into $400 in down under dollarbucks). Was delivered an hour ago and spent last 45 min listening to same beat on M:S into Syntakt into it and just going between bypass and on. So good.
Dope content per usual bro. I'd say from similar experience.... Take the SP because the second you realize it has exactly what you need for a particular moment, your going to be kicking yourself! All for the vibe man, anything for the vibe!!
Amazing, how many hoops you've got to jump through to get stuff done on the Digitakt that you could do 20 years ago on an MPC 1000... And yes, the newer Elektron boxes can do stuff that you can't do that easily on an older MPC. But when it comes to MIDI control and general sequencing, I really don't get why Elektron still goes for all these arbitrary restrictions in 2022...
Thank you for the insight! 1: Offical RT Peak Soundbank when? 2: Beat repeat. No. I mean, for subtle individual elements, sure. As master effect, heck no. 9/10 it subtracts more than it adds. You found the groove. Don't wreck it.
GOD! That sample your mixed up on 1:33 🥶🥶 Ricky, pasa alguna sesión como esa pls que no encuentro nada tuyo de ese estilo. O vente para España!! y voy a verte jajaja
Tape delay warping and slap back are my two favourite effects to play live, but I use the Octa for that - personally I dig the unique sounds of the Octa effects and use my scenes and parts to play with those for performance. Less gear is better for a live set IMO 😊
Those OTO BOUM units were out of stock for such a long time. I eventually caved and got a HXstomp instead. But I totally agree about the limiter at the end of the chain.
I'm sure you're not going to bring your SP. Especially it would be too risky on the first gig. Aside from logistics, the extra knobs and headspace required would be ill advised. But anyway, if/when you do, you could have it so just the Peak runs through the SP. That way those glitch and other effects will be contained to your "free play" section. Thanks for the fun channel!
Less is more. Especially with dance music. No need for beat repeat fx imo. I'd say your setup is complete. I know the feeling on stage when you want to tweak around with fx and stuff but most of the time it doesn't help the music. I'd say concentrate on a few changes in your tracks and ín between just have a good time and vibe and/or dance to the music. It took me a while to put my hands off the knobs on stage. I was glued to the machines and couldn't really enjoy the liveset. And i'm still struggling a bit. :) Sometimes i still feel lazy on stage because i don't tweak around all the time. But if the music is good enough (and in your case i'd say it is) then the people will enjoy it and appreciate it even more if you are relaxed and having fun on stage.
Man Ricky using the SP simply for an efx unit it’s like having a time machine just to go back to the 60s to get stoned. Super cool but...Entirely missing the huge creative potential. I think all the Lo Fi beats TH-cam videos with the SP actually is a detriment to the range of this amazing experimental piece of gear.
Btw - The peak transition technique is so spot on! My very first live gig I had no idea what I was gonna do flying by the seat of my underpants. And then I realized I could do these like distorted fuzzy drones throughout my whole set to tie the whole thing together and blend everything. really was a paradigm shift. You could do a whole video on this.
RNLA has been a secret for a long time.. damn you 😭🤣. Also I'm sure you're aware, but there are parts on the octatrack that can be set per-pattern.. I use 4 patterns per part by default, so can put 4 different "songs" per bank, or have 4 different part settings per song. If you save a default part in the last bank, I'm pretty sure (from memory) you can copy a "template" back when needed.
Why not use the Octatrack for transitions? You can setup one track to record the master, and mangle it while moving to another pattern and crossfade to it. Lots of setting up to do, though. Happy jamming!
So interesting... I didn't know there was a 3 oscillator analouge synth out there beside Moog. Excuse me though.... I am having trouble discerning what the difference here is between NCO and DCO?
Have you ever played around with the FMR RNC? I've been hovering over the buy button on one of them for ages now, but keep getting distracted by the OTO Boum, and the Analog Heat. Can't make up my mind, and there isn't anywhere I can find to get my hands on any of them to test out where I live.
Great tips! The trick to deal with program changes is money. Do you ever have issues with the Peak switching to the wrong patch? I am attempting the same thing with my Virus Ti and sometimes the Virus will change to the wrong patch,
Thoughts about the ability to use external MIDI controllers with the SP-404 mkii? I would think you would be all over it for the possibility of automating the 4 separate effects with another piece of kit.
Great video!, i love when you just talk to us and show us how your setup is progressing, can you recommend me some sample packs for my novation circuit? i can't afford paying monthly for samples lately...
Quick question: Is the peak multitimbral? Cause after watching that video (which is great btw), I tried to split polyphony over multiple tracks as well on my microfreak, but it doesn't seem to work. Peace!
FMR products cant compare to Boum compressor. Both work well, for different applications, Boum is a saturation unit with compressor to help even out the boosted signal and mix dry wet, as well as upwards compression - while FMR stuff is more clinical and do what compressor or limiter should do at the end of the chain.
Awesome video as always. I've been having some weird latency issues while Live MIDI Recording on my OT, I wonder if I can run that through the Digitakt. Using an ERM Clock as Main Clock Source.
mmmm after thinking about it the Boum sounded better to me and i didnt REALLY need the glitch FX thaaatt bad, but what i have now is a small eurorack with an icredible multiband compressor which i need to film later
@@RickyTinez sounds dope! :) Meanwhile, for mortals like me, Takt+SP takes it away. :) Currently a colleague lent me his 0-Coast - I highly recommend you check it out :) posted a little jam on my channel too..
you could trigger one-shots/sfx off the 404, throwin' em thru FX.... like say, a riser sound, but modulate the depth of a lofi filter or smth. then each time you fire off one of these sfx, it'd have a bit of an organic twist to it. *shrug* not really your thing i take it
I think its about the pattern setting differences he explained in the video. having the ability to stay in one main structure with samples but switching between the midi patterns. in general, no, octatrack's midi capabilities are way advanced than digitakt's but that doesn't mean you need all of that
and how you use your RNLA in live situation? i have one and have used it live but i have so many things to attend while playing live that im not sure if its worth to have a compressor there. it keeps me having a look at it all the time or i just forget about it and leave the same settings the whole gig.
Oh, it's so complex :) I'm going to make a Sampler+Mixer and FX-machine with Raspberry Pi 4. I hope it's possible inside one box. If somebody have good ideas (I have some but not sure about everything!), tell me, please! I have an only poly-synth now - A4 MK2. And I'm almost happy with it. Of course it lacks of the whole set of sound effects that I need and thus I'm gonna make something universal and compact. That's the general idea. The budget is ~500-600$ My main dillema now is: buying a usual Raspberry Pi 4 B/B+ (no eMMC as I understand) or buying an extension board (eMMC onboard) to install the Computing Module 4 into it. eMMC serves like a hard drive but very fast.
just go and buy a PiSound, and from there on you can program whatever you like using the organelle os by critter (it is actually pure data). you can find already a lot of patches on patchstorage
@@seren.a3633 I bet they will not ship to Russia now. As a critique to this board I must say that blocking GPIO by the board (no output pins on PiSound) seems to be a bad constructive decision. For example, I want to use non-standard controllers: a ribbon, LDRs. I can't do this with PiSound after installing it. Or I need some inter-connection board between them... Not sure if it will work. I really want to use a ribbon and LDRs. I've tried LDRs with my "analog toys" and it's a great thing to have for live sound design.
@@seren.a3633 I think that MIDI IO is very doable DIY, not complex (I've seen a project). Probably I'll buy a "USB audio card" from Ali. Not sure if the quality will be good though. I understand that they use some premium sound chip but I'm not sure that it's very noticeable in the end. The main problems with sound usually comes with bad shielding. If the power line is separated from USB controls (when they presents) then that high-pitched noise can be avoided (and it's not always the case). Of course, on the DAC side - if a chip is super-cheap then it may be crappy and give some distortions. I have a very good (not in all aspects) motherboard for PC from Asus with a premium sound chip (which I don't use) and it costs ~this PiSound now ;) Maybe a bit more (+10-20$). Do you feel the difference?
midi sure, but good Dac/Adc just cost their prices, above all in these times. but I am just not good enough to build my own from scratch I prefer to spend my time with creating nice patches and music instead of troubleshooting all the mistakes I made. been there and realized it's not for me. but if you can do it, you will prlly create one nice shield that fits all your needs
Hello I believe this is the first time speaking here. I am completing a set of goals and I'd like to know how to interact with you on a professional level. I am most concerned about linking and working with hardware/software manufacturers. Anyways cheers and let me know a reasonable fee for 30 to 60 minutes zoom or Skype. Thank you.

Nice vidéo once again. The live FX I love to use a lot is tape delay, playing with spead/pitch. Also like to use very short delay going to FM.
wait hold up you work for Elektron now? When did you leave Novation?
Curious too

Word from a time traveller, The Elektron Spin is an dj fx unit for programming breakdowns and buildups. Due 2028. Lets see if paradox hits
Fun video man! Good stuff!
What about using a Launchpad Pro mk3 for the Peak sequencing? I don't think it has this 4 notes limit of the Digitakt...
damn this is literally my same set up minus the compressor. love it

hahahaha, its just too good!
Man Ricky using the SP simply for an efx unit it’s like having a time machine just to go back to the 60s to get stoned. Super cool but...Entirely missing the huge creative potential. I think all the Lo Fi beats TH-cam videos with the SP actually is a detriment to the range of this amazing experimental piece of gear.

"This is where it gets dope."

I am using Octatrack, Analog 4, Digitone, TB03 and may add small modular to my setup with a good mixer. Why no modular Ricky?
Beat repeat is pretty date imo, I love it but in 2023 we need the freshness!
How many different Octatracks have you owned? You have videos with Mk1, Mk2, and Mk2 Black. Holy moly.

You should release a jam video with this set up.
Great video once again! What are your thoughts about using Octatrack's delay as a beat repeater? Yeah, it's not SP404, but still works nicely.
Everybody can go on reverb looking for the RNLA now, all I know is they won't be getting mine
What filter hardware you recommend for heavy ebm
Dope, are you using LFO on retrig? How are you glitching the vocal like that, do you have an OT video that covers that? Much respect!
please record the live set love to suss it here in australia.
I really like beat repeat lmao but you can set up the Octatrack to do that too so. . .
Been seeing the Octatrac showing up on a lot of channels lately. Did Elektron have a fire sale or something?
I been too lazy to anything lately. INSPIRE ME TO HOUSE, Ricky.
I want to do the same setup, but with dubstep.
Which do you prefer the sp1200 or s2400?
I am sorry to inform you your setup is NOT dawless.
The difference is that your 'DAW' is running on embedded electronics instead of a PC.
Wait. You work at Elektron? Was that a freudian slip?
Nah, he changed jobs like a month ago
Isnt an Elektron guy using a Boum a fireable offense?
Yo, you should try an mpc 1000/2500 running JJOS 2XL
you work at novation and elektron?
Yes He does work for Navation as a promoter and demonstrator of there product's a bit like Andy Mac does for Akai.
Ricky, Do you ever do shows in NYC? This beyonce chop is tight btw!
why not have the sp404mk2 as the last in chain with 2x master fx and 2 additional live perf fx?
mmmm after thinking about it the Boum sounded better to me and i didnt REALLY need the glitch FX thaaatt bad, but what i have now is a small eurorack with an icredible multiband compressor which i need to film later

How does the Digitakt compressor end of chain compare to the boum?
you could trigger one-shots/sfx off the 404, throwin' em thru FX.... like say, a riser sound, but modulate the depth of a lofi filter or smth. then each time you fire off one of these sfx, it'd have a bit of an organic twist to it. *shrug* not really your thing i take it
Hello. Is that intro Inspired by The Bunn?
That's cool! 😎 Is Digitakt midi sequencer better than on Octa? Or why Peak isn't sequenced from Octa?
I think its about the pattern setting differences he explained in the video. having the ability to stay in one main structure with samples but switching between the midi patterns. in general, no, octatrack's midi capabilities are way advanced than digitakt's but that doesn't mean you need all of that
Can we actually get a dawless live set on TH-cam or are we asking for too much?
Yesssss this is crunchy
Whats the best way to get isolated vocal samples for house??
For your style of music, I think you can skip the 404. Sounds like you have enough to play with.
and how you use your RNLA in live situation? i have one and have used it live but i have so many things to attend while playing live that im not sure if its worth to have a compressor there. it keeps me having a look at it all the time or i just forget about it and leave the same settings the whole gig.

Bro do you want a longer MIDI cable?
Do you think the DPS1 is still a viable platform in 2022? I’m thinking about getting one.
The Octatrack MK1
Oh, it's so complex :) I'm going to make a Sampler+Mixer and FX-machine with Raspberry Pi 4. I hope it's possible inside one box.
If somebody have good ideas (I have some but not sure about everything!), tell me, please!
I have an only poly-synth now - A4 MK2. And I'm almost happy with it. Of course it lacks of the whole set of sound effects that I need and thus I'm gonna make something universal and compact. That's the general idea. The budget is ~500-600$
My main dillema now is: buying a usual Raspberry Pi 4 B/B+ (no eMMC as I understand) or buying an extension board (eMMC onboard) to install the Computing Module 4 into it. eMMC serves like a hard drive but very fast.
just go and buy a PiSound, and from there on you can program whatever you like using the organelle os by critter (it is actually pure data). you can find already a lot of patches on patchstorage
@@seren.a3633 I bet they will not ship to Russia now.
As a critique to this board I must say that blocking GPIO by the board (no output pins on PiSound) seems to be a bad constructive decision. For example, I want to use non-standard controllers: a ribbon, LDRs. I can't do this with PiSound after installing it. Or I need some inter-connection board between them... Not sure if it will work.
I really want to use a ribbon and LDRs. I've tried LDRs with my "analog toys" and it's a great thing to have for live sound design.
ah I understand.. maybe then a board between might get you there. if they ship. I think for just audio midi this board is very fair in terms of price
@@seren.a3633 I think that MIDI IO is very doable DIY, not complex (I've seen a project). Probably I'll buy a "USB audio card" from Ali. Not sure if the quality will be good though.
I understand that they use some premium sound chip but I'm not sure that it's very noticeable in the end. The main problems with sound usually comes with bad shielding. If the power line is separated from USB controls (when they presents) then that high-pitched noise can be avoided (and it's not always the case).
Of course, on the DAC side - if a chip is super-cheap then it may be crappy and give some distortions.
I have a very good (not in all aspects) motherboard for PC from Asus with a premium sound chip (which I don't use) and it costs ~this PiSound now ;) Maybe a bit more (+10-20$).
Do you feel the difference?
midi sure, but good Dac/Adc just cost their prices, above all in these times. but I am just not good enough to build my own from scratch
I prefer to spend my time with creating nice patches and music instead of troubleshooting all the mistakes I made. been there and realized it's not for me. but if you can do it, you will prlly create one nice shield that fits all your needs
This video made me accumulate a lot of jelly and the video ended with the jam.... Just sayin'! Set is sounding fire.. can't wait to hear it..
Hello I believe this is the first time speaking here.
I am completing a set of goals and I'd like to know how to interact with you on a professional level. I am most concerned about linking and working with hardware/software manufacturers. Anyways cheers and let me know a reasonable fee for 30 to 60 minutes zoom or Skype. Thank you.
