    It crazy how after all these years, there's still stuff to learn about this thing. Never knew about mix paste mode.

    I think the magic of the octactack is that half of the features are not on the manual, so then it can be xmas at any moment 😂

    These kinds of videos are great. They show me just how lazy I'm being with my OT. I like going through the motions especially now to build that muscle memory. I'll legit go back to your old videos to see how to rebuild certain effects. But I definitely want to check out your template. The value in workflow efficiency there is undeniable.

    Nice. Would be great, to kind of reinforce the concepts behind your stand alone template, to see you make a beat from scratch. Like bring in some sounds, do some chops, then build a beat, then perform it a little. ?

    I love watching these videos because I really want to add an octatrack to my productions because I like this type of performance that I feel like I am missing. But then I will have my mouse hover over the buy button and I’ll be like this is way too complicated for me so lets not.

    Holy coconut! I never knew about the mix mode, i have to look more in depth into it. It is a bit too fast at times to follow what you’re refering at, especially since i use the OT to loop so i can’t use the same setup (i need Thru machines and have different scenes per banks as i don’t do proper electronic music) but your video style is quite refreshing ;) well done!
    I have to notice you are not using the OT properly standalone though.

    • @EZBOT_
      @EZBOT_  ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't want to put tracks into my template only to erase them later. The demonstration still shows the exactly what it would be like if I recorded into the tracks. Thanks for checking it out!

  • @Pharmacymusic1
    @Pharmacymusic1 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video man! Do you have any tutorial/s that shows how to set up each of these effects? I'd prefer to learn how to set them up myself than use a template, to help me learn more and so that I can be more flexible with setup of scenes.

    How do you incorporate regular mixer? I mean you connect other gears into octa directly or from mixer? You said the second but when you are running all the gears live how do you select which Instrument will be sampled if from regular mixer comes everything?

      @@EZBOT_ Interesting. Yes, I guess it's logical that they'd be working on something new to replace it. But it'll probably be a whole other story ! Seeing how many people complained about its UI and steep learning curve, and the digi line, I'm going to assume they would make it more accessible - like a watered down version -, but again, I might be wrong 😇
