Going Dawless with the Octatrack | Electronic Music Without A Laptop | Thomann

Is this good?

Great overview! Hoping to pick one up in the next couple months. Loved the music.

Great video as always Felix. I'm still on the fence with the Octatrack though because of its age.
But if Elektron manages to redo it as a Mk3 with a better workflow I'll be one of the first to preorder it.

If I had a dollar everytime you touch the headphones Vol ... Djeezes

I hope you will introduce the record collection behind you someday.

is the song used in the performance released??? if so what's its name?

Finally, an easy to digest summary of the Octatrack! Thank you 🙏🏻!

great video keep it up

I really have to start using the midi tracks on my Octatrack / Digitone to control my other gear. I’ve been lazy.

Electronic music without digital synths yields the best results.

looping a single waveform brings the octatrack also in synth territories :)

Nice. Is it possible to have all your sampling time available in 1 project ?

DAW-less recording is great fun. The physicality produces different results. I still mix in the box but the tracks are more ready for mixing and sometimes are really more like stubs with effects and processing already done. Direct to stereo is fastest of all and it's like stepping back in time but in a good way.

Nice jam! Great melody and drums! Love it!

Very nice trick with the short feedback time delay scene on the drums track. I will shamelessly steal this one from you :)

Nice vid, thanks!
By the way, sp-404sx/a is nice for long samples (unlike many other gear), may work like fx unit, good for djing as well, great for beat making, and supports midi sync/playback. I would suggest it a great option for drone, lofi, house and basically any other stuff

This is exactly what I was looking for. Great video. You clearly explain its use, it's way more than a sampler. Getting one now. Thanks. I assume that you can also just program drums on it, and you really don't need the Analog Rytm?

Going analog is definitely the way to go , there’s just something about it that a computer can’t replicate . I don’t know what it is , maybe the workflow , or the fact your not staring at a computer for hours and clicking a mouse , but one thing I no for sure is analog is fun as hell and I love the feel of physical gear , maybe that’s why I love my Mpc live so much. Great work my man very inspiring ! Hope I can afford a setup like this one day 🙏🏽✌🏽

Thanks Felix - that was interesting and informative

I have almost the same setup, the idea that the octatrack is the central part is a choice to have a minimum of devices and that, with formidable efficiency. I love the black edition, really classy.

can you please reveal - that synth sample on oktatrack, is it reversed or modulated by lfo?

You forgot to put the Akai Force in your list.

The OT is the best music device so far of the last 15 years, and we can only hope that Elektron without Cenk will develop an OT 2 and not only an OT MK3

It it wonderful that Thomann got you on their show. You are an excellent presenter! :)

Wonderfully described Felix!
I am debating whether to get Digitakt or Octatrack.
Which one do you find more useful as studio tool, when trying to finish songs?
Digitakt with Overbridge, or Octatrack with endless possibilities, but poor computer integration.

Wow, you went about 80% Aphex Twin on that.

Your flower is dancing. (Orchid?)

OCTATRACK IS A DAW!

Would this be worth getting to replace an MPD218? I use it for mapping the MIDI cc knobs to Ableton Macros/Filter, res, cutoff, etc. and sometimes use it with Koala

Well this was awesome!

A really excellent introduction to the Octatrack. Really helped me discover more. Thank you.

Thanks for the great video!!! Can you explain why you send the midi track via de rytm instead of directly to the MS20-mini?

Hi, What confuses me about Elektron are the differences in the machines.

What distinguishes an Analog Rytm, an Analog Four or an Octatrac from each other. They all have the ability to play drum loops somehow, don't they? Is there somewhere a clear separation for the use of the devices?

great video and great live performance!

What if I told you that Octatrack is a DAW!😯😯😯😯😯😮😮😮😮😮😮

I can not like this enough

is there a reason you route midi for the ms20 through the rytm as well?

Loving your crossfader scenes. What are some of your go to fx on the octa for creating those glitchy, stretched out drum manglers on scenes?

Hört sich leicht nach Prichard T. Jams 😂 an

DAWless ist meine Herausforderung.. I hate screens

Great Man!!

Hi my friend, have you got this track in full anywhere online it's excellent!!! I'm really wanting to get an Octatrack but I have Zero experience with hardware I've only ever made music on a computer, so I'm cautious about buying one and then getting frustrated because I can't use it

Concise and very well explained--Thank you!!

What a Vibeee🎉❤
