Working The One Box Groove

[@chambre466]

thanks man, enjoying a lot

[@AnalogKitchen]

Glad you enjoy it!

This is very useful. It's so easy to get lost with all the possibilities that comes with a desk full of amazing toys. As soon as I come up with something I like, I get carried away and start improvising and adding new elements and in the end it is impossible to find my way back. Assignment to myself: create five one-box grooves by this principle. Know them, name them, save them. Great groove by the way!

[@AnalogKitchen]

Once you have those, you'll see how this now starts to become a powerful set list. And the iffy stuff sorts itself out when you do a performance (either to friend, in a club or just at home. Great travels brother! Let me know what works out?

[@JeanNicolasArtaud]

And an excellent track in the end, like the cheers on the cake. Thanks ❤

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks for listening

[@JeanNicolasArtaud]

@@AnalogKitchen my pleasure

[@DayflightTrok]

Yes, very good. I have also an OT Mk2 and in the context of a HW Setup with different Synth its a good idea using the OT only for the drums.

[@AnalogKitchen]

It also sounds awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@thecreepysilence4290]

I love you DAWless Videos. Really. You make an really great Job with this Channel. My workflow is also dawless, but i have everything connected via an audiointerface to the MPC. It works really great. I also have some crashes, but only when I reconnect various USB devices does the MPC like to hang up. but otherwise in the studio and live I have no problems with it.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Cool to hear! And thanks for being here!

[@chambre466]

I finally got the OT so thanks again. Imagine myself with a Model Samples in A B and C D with rev2 or rather 2 monos. This OT is amazing. Anyway love you again and waiting for next week

[@AnalogKitchen]

Very nice! Thanks for watching! And... Love you back!

[@els1f]

You're the best man✌️♥️🙌

[@AnalogKitchen]

You are the best haha!

[@MidlifeSynthesist]

[@AnalogKitchen]

Hey bro! Yes, we do need to hang out more at SuperBooth next year! Thanks for watching! ps, you rapping cracked me up dude hahahaha

[@glensubtorq]

Thanks 👍😎

[@AnalogKitchen]

No problem Glen 👍

[@markikzelf1]

Thanks for youre video again. Love them all❤ for me is the Digitakt That get s me in to the Groove. Most of the time sitting on the couch with a pair of headphones but i m struggeling to get it out the speakers propertly 😅 do you got tips😊

[@AnalogKitchen]

Start on speakers from the get go. Headphones will translate a different thing! And be patient, slowly but surely it will come

[@markikzelf1]

🙏

[@BonasBuden]

My choice of groove box is Digitakt. I have all kinds of hardware but everything had boiled down to this one device. I'm really drawn to idea that I have live sets composed on one portable device which I just bring to the event plug in and play my set. Setup takes few minutes max and after my set I can continue my evening with friends everything conveniently stowed in one rather small backpack.

[@AnalogKitchen]

I try… G knows I’ve tried. Still can’t get it done. But I do utilize everything as it’s all part of a bigger idea. Still though, it was liberating to work with just one taks to a box 📦

[@py_a_thon]

Those drums sound tuned to be most effective with a root of the note A? (So basically any mode or chords that sit well with or add transients to A in a tempermental tuning form (440hz, slightly higher than perfect math, slightly higher, etc)? My bad. I never learned how to tune a piano. Is that maybe correct?

[@AnalogKitchen]

Well Ideally, the only thing that needs to be tuned is that 808 tom. Elements of other things can be tuned but the most important thing is that tom

[@py_a_thon]

@@AnalogKitchen Yeah, the kick is usually more about frequency range and the "color" or timbre of the sound. Snares and cymbals seem to be similar, yet I think tuning snare-like sounds and using the correct cymbals (or modifying them somehow) is often important. I sometimes wish I had pursued a more formal education regarding music theory. The old joke holds true though: "How do you get a guitarist to shut up? Hand them a piece of sheet music" lol

[@py_a_thon]

@@AnalogKitchen I knew a formally jazz trained drummer back in the day, and he was obsessed with tuning his snare and tom drums almost perfectly. If we had been more serious as a music act, he probably would have tuned slightly different for some songs, atleast for studio work.

[@Epic_Adventure_Club]

I am regretting the mpc, i should have got an octatrack

[@chrishof3917]

no... just MAKE MUSIC! ❤

[@AnalogKitchen]

No regrets. You can’t compare them really as they are different boxes altogether.. but I hear ya

[@Mattex-Music]

I’m on the fence between the two and can only afford one. Curious why you’re leaning towards octatrack instead of MPC?

[@noahsiekmann4275]

​@@Mattex-Musicstability. The octatrack is a tank. It is solid as a rock. The MPC isn't.

[@FuZZbaLLbee]

My Octatrack died yesterday. Blank screen no sound and organs leds. Hope it can be fixed, or i’ll get a new black car one. Meanwhile enjoying the Rytm and Digitone combo

[@AnalogKitchen]

Whoah... That sucks! How much were you relying on it? Is it a huge loss? Or manageable?

[@FuZZbaLLbee]

@@AnalogKitchen was using it as a performance mixer, now I just use the audio in of the Rytm. I am afraid of more gear braking though. I used to have an MPC live as well, until the pads kept triggering by them selfs even with setting the threshold higher. Luckily both under warranty 😀

[@FuZZbaLLbee]

My Octatrack is back with a replaced capacitor. 😀
