If you are on the fence of buying one and still not sure. Let me tell you both the micro and minifreak will go down in history as a breakthrough in conception at this price point. Its been two years now and there’s still nothing closeto it.

some things you do different than I do but we still accomplish the same goal...for example finding the sample bpm without knowing what it is. I would use tap tempo or use my ears and move the knobs to get it right on point.

I am slow on the uptake here, but I just noticed that the classic undo symbol, especially in typefaces like the one you reference on the K.O. 2 numbered keys here, is basically an umbrella. I agree they get overly cutesy, but this example is pretty on the nose once you notice this.

I'd beg to differ, the resonance sounds good. Sometimes you don't want aggressive, big, gnarly type resonance behaviour.

Love this, one of the more helpful things I've come across, I'm pretty new to all of this stuff, but you went slow enough that I could follow, most just go cranking through it so fast that if you're a little unfamiliar, it's tough to keep up without going, "wait, what?", and rewinding half dozen times. With _this_ one, I was actually able to make a nice little phaser-y patch, so thanks!

Thanks so much for this great explanation! I'm curious about the ability to record one note and play it chromatically on the EP133 compared to other samplers, like the SP404MK2. Have you ever compared their sounds? The sound on the EP133 gets super grainy when you play in lower octaves or pitch it down-I’m guessing that's why you compared it to the SK1, right? Anyway, just curious if you’ve compared it with other samplers with similar capabilities. I have a Blackbox from 1010 music, I will make a test to see how it sounds.
@Bloom_Music 17 күн бұрын
Yes, the grainy effects as you pitch down are why I compared it to the SK-1. Each sampler does this in their own way and impart their own character, but I’ve found that the K.O. II has the best balance of cost, character, and immediacy of the modern samplers. Alternatively, my favorite modern sampler for this sound is the emulation in Maschine, but that is a much less portable and affordable option. The SP404 doesn’t do a great job at this, mostly because it has a very limited pitch range compared to the K.O. II. The Blackbox is great for chromatic sampling and it has more synthesis options, but I’ve found that the pitching algorithm doesn’t get as gritty as I’d like. But this is all just personal preference… None of these are “better” than the others, just different. You’ll have to try them all out to see which you prefer! 😉
@p____ramos 17 күн бұрын
@@Bloom_Music Thanks for the reply and explanation. Yesterday, I tested it with the Blackbox, and I totally agree. There are some more interesting sound-shaping capabilities that the KO doesn’t have, but when you go down the octaves, it doesn’t sound as grainy as the KO. I was also checking out your other two videos about the KO, great content in there. I really like your approach to the videos, the way you explain things, and the specific features you explore. Definitely the most interesting videos on the KO. Thanks again!

Great video, really enjoying this on my KO II. Can you talk about your compositions? I really love the one at 10:38 and I am kind of mystified at your voicings. Also, are you layering tracks here? I hear differences in the high and low end melodies that seem more like EQ and FX than just downsampling. Am I wrong? Keep going! Love your stuff!
@Bloom_Music 17 күн бұрын
All of the melodies and arps in this video are from the Deadmau5 Chimaera midi pack. I usually compose my own music in my videos, but I ran short on time in this one and got lazy. 🙂 And no multitracking, all of these are single pass recordings. I am using the built in effects of the K.O. II in some cases, but the difference in tone between the high and low notes is purely down to the sampling engine and the way it pitches!
@frankpayne6902 28 күн бұрын
"Immediately approachable". That's the best description I've heard yet. As it turns out, I'm pretty bad at actually making music but I love noodling around with a groovebox. Elektron stuff has always seemed out of reach for me (although the Model: Samples is great) and I wouldn't even know where to start with an actual MPC. But an hour into owning this thing and I've already made some pretty decent stuff. Now I can't wait to mess around with some time stretching. Thanks for the inspiration!

I love the keyboard style keys on this. More than any sampler I've used . I originally was upset by the lack of space , but I managed to get 700 samples on it by reduc8ng them to mono samples , I will say I had to return my first ko2 , it had a broken key, but since I got my new one I've been in love with it

Other than only 4 voices, the only real drawback is its lack of user slots (only 1). About half the presets are only so-so, so I've overwritten them, but it would still be nice to have at least a bank of user slots (16 patches). The MS2000 sound is underrated and the functionality better than most circa 2000 VAs. I actually like the chorus and delay effects but admit the distortion button is crap except sometimes as a signal boost.
