Analog Four - Improvising with Sounds

Published on Nov 19, 2012 by MrDataline

"4 analog synths in one box with sequencer and effects...

All 4 tracks have been sequenced inside the new Elektron Analog Four. I wanted to show various parameters for Filters, Oscillators and 'how it sounds' while playing this composition. There is no external processing, everything you hear is from the Analog Four.

Words can not describe how cool this machine is...

Octatrack Pro Tip #9 - Track Trigging

Published on Sep 21, 2012 by ElektronHQ

"Try it out for yourself! Download the Project file for this Pro-tip here:
http://files.elektron.se/pro-tip/PROTIP9.zip

Tracks can be disconnected from the sequencer. This makes it possible to start and stop tracks individually, which can be used for live improvisations. The first eight [TRIG] keys trig disconnected tracks.

"Try it out for yourself! Download the Project files for this Pro-tip here:
http://files.elektron.se/pro-tip/PROTIP7.zip

By taking advantage of the flexible audio engine of the Octatrack, sounds can be radically reshaped. This is demonstrated in this video. The same single cycle waveform sample has been used as the basis for all the sounds of the pattern."

Octatrack Pro Tip #6 - Internal resampling for adding pattern variations

YouTube Published on Aug 10, 2012 by ElektronHQ

"A quantized track recorder is used to record the internal sounds. Track 5 plays back the
recorded sample and is pre-arranged with note trigs and parameter locks. The crossfader
fades in track 5 and fades out the other tracks. This can be used to add variations to a
pattern.

Octatrack Pro Tip #4 - Controlling Slices With The Crossfader

YouTube Published on Jul 13, 2012 by ElektronHQ

"Two long waveforms each containing several sounds have been sliced. The crossfader controls which slices that will play. Different scenes affect the playback of the slices differently. By using this method, the sound of a pattern can change dramatically.
