Nerdsession No.1 - Dapayk & the Elektron Analog Four + Rytm (Provence Analog Pool Session 2014 )

[@davidmoore9385]

makes me want to sell my house and buy a pool and a synth

[@des7638]

Did you ever fulfill your dream?

[@davidmoore9385]

@@des7638 sort of but not that one

[@dxtrs_mnpltr]

Do it!

The house doesn't swim

[@garethbinks8804]

It's videos like this that always convince me that Elektron gear is amazing. Now overbridge is out I think it's even more amazing!

[@maximpetersburg]

Dear Dapayk, my little bro and I very honors of your synth. Thank you so much ! You don't now, but now you are starting a good tradition of synth in Russia. Thank you man !

[@CleverHans1]

Как успехи?

[@erickozak8246]

Very cool and well done. Stumbled on this looking for audio demos of these machines. Glad I did!

[@mred162]

Rave on ! Bravo pour l'ambiance. Très beau son et belle maîtrise de tes Elektrons. J'adooore....

[@trukxelf]

Love the amorphous bassline that emerges after 5:47 yessss....and the speakers move like water

[@SamMcEwin]

Awesome vid, thanks for sharing. It's great to get such an intimate view of you just working your magic. Keep up the great work. Love that Elektron gear too!

[@MichaelToop]

Super! Makes me want to drink wine & make music! Best combo.

[@carlos-theshedstudio4739]

Fantastic sounds. I'm just getting started with the A4 and well inspired! Thank you.

[@sttiede]

BTW.. i think the dogs pushes the buttons under the desk... and daypak just turning the knobs.

[@FatHandof]

Love that bass kicking in about at about 6.30.

[@CleverHans1]

YES!!

[@philipplenz95]

De Knöbbschädreher immer schön dir zu zuschauen! Analog Rytm Mega!

[@rotmilan_official]

Alter die Kisten grooven unter deinen Fingern! Muss ich mir mal im Club anhören so ein Liveset von Dapayk!

[@dakitanmonkey]

Excellent deep basses...make waves on the pool behind

[@jaguybardus2616]

Bien sympa ce moment tannoy elektron piscine soleil et bon son !

[@umonox]

ich hab hier noch gar nix geschrieben?? ^^ verdammt :) Wird jetzt nachgeholt! SEHR GEILES SET Niklas !!! Endlich mal wieder ein Beispiel dafür, dass nicht nur geklimpere und ewig gleiches rumgequietsche aus den Elektron Maschinen kommen kann, sondern RICHTIGE SOLIDE MUCKE !!!! Der Opener ist klasse!

[@Tresk009]

Seriously dope ass sounds! from artist with kickass Elektron tools.

[@chibukun]

I come back to this video again and again for inspiration, I have the a4 and rytm and am just getting into this all, I’m sat here in France with a glass of rouge and me a4 making noises as it happens, cheers man merry Christmas 👍

[@prydrm8113]

Wow, i was there this semptember, the Provence. Clearly, you didn't play loud enough for me to hear it. Great set & setting!

[@MixerDjammed]

My favorite A4 jam thus far. Great Job ! :) This video actually made me purchase an A4 by the way.

[@bigkingsha]

Live DJ & progressive beat-constructing on the spot by the pool with a bottle of good stuff. This shit's nuts.

[@cameronscottcairney8852]

These outdoor jams of yours on the rytm and A4 are hugely inspiring. You should do more! Since the rytm has dual vco I’d love to see what you’d do with it

[@Gregster-HH]

what the FUUUUUUUUCK ..... I love the track

[@Gregster-HH]

Ach Du bist ja n Deutscher xD hätte ich ja auch so schreiben können xD geile Mukke Digga :-)

[@52i637i]

Forever DAPAYK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@leehodge7907]

Beautiful! Don't think I blinked once the whole way through this! Getting an analog rytm soon and now you have made me want an a4 too! What a setting for a video too....great work! Subscribed!👍

[@TheBluehood23]

lee hodge i have both plus octatrack.... Amazing what you can do.. I dont need computer at all!!!! So happy

[@MammaMo]

ab12:00 wirds ja richtig FETT!! Danke für den Mix!!!

[@avaizhashmi]

Really good sounds here!

[@DayflightTrok]

I like your minimal sound and calm sound progress

[@JonIler]

These machines are so hot. Elektron makes that epic shit.

[@GeorgeLux74]

Fantastic set!

[@Gorja239]

i would like to chill inside the pool and play my E-MX SD (: nice tune dapayk!!!

[@danraiche4823]

Huge perfommance realy inspiring @dapayksolo

[@Georg89]

Cool track, amazing!

[@MadelnMachines]

Cool set. I'd like to see you perform sometime.

[@alphanod]

Really enjoyed that, running out of reasons not to buy some Elektron gear :)

[@Illy_Noize]

great session

[@glenbrady4220]

Loving this

[@UberSynth]

I've got those active tannoy reveals monitors, they're old. I brought them in 2003 and I still have them today. Cool gig btw. 7:24 I think your dog 🐶 is looking for a clue btw. 🔬

[@synthsociety]

you are living my dream my friend

love this set its the nutz

[@michaelsanchez5601]

Bah ouai la provence ca donne de l'inspiration !!! :) good job

[@sonicultura]

@14:00 should be released as an Dapayk Pack for the AR @Elektron!

[@DapaykSolo]

+sonicultura the sounds around 14.00 are mainly coming from the analog 4... but you're right... a sound pack for the rytm could be a nice idea... let me think about it ;)

[@sonicultura]

That would be awesome Dapayk!!

[@toby6004]

Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Nachwuchs.

[@blamerscf]

It smells like Luberon no !? My parents live here amazing location !! :) Amazing set BTW :)

[@alexandermekhonoshin7988]

Madness! Love all the sounds and dynamics of transitions from one sound to the next. Probably best demo on what you can do with Elektron instruments. Got a question: Do you use often use Mackie DL1608 for your live performance at stage, festivals? Your demo gets me into having these sooner or later. Thanks

[@DapaykSolo]

thanks! i use the dl1608 at live gigs every week for 4 years now. the thing never let me down...

[@donotfit]

This is amazing

[@KOIBAmusic]

Great..! +Dapayk Solo

[@kiarrah423]

Wish I was swimming in that pool...

[@absoticc]

Soo Hot! I don't quite understand how you are changing the banks, do you prepare on Song mode if you play live and are 128 Patterns enough for a 45 minute long live set? This would really help to understand the procedure of making live sets with the Analog Rytm. Again, thank you Dapayk for great music! Love from Germany.

[@DapaykSolo]

thanks, man! i actually never use song mode, feels like cheating ;) the number of patterns you need kinda depends on what music style you're playing . with the performance mode you can tweak a loop pretty much and probably, if you're playing dub etc, improvise on a loop for 10min without getting boring. so 128 patterns should be more than enough to play an hour or so. i try to organize it like this: 4 banks share one kit, the next 4 banks share a new one. in the 4 banks there is one pattern which is something like the intro/start of a track, the second pattern brings in the hook, the third a breakdown, the fourth an outro with elements of the next upcoming kit (kind of like mixing into a new track in a dj-set) and so on...

[@absoticc]

This is exactly the answer I needed, thanks for taking the time to answer, really appreciate it!

[@DapaykSolo]

glad i can help!

[@ionmatika]

Awesome set. I've got the same setup and I hope I can make something like this. Peace!

[@christiantorma2440]

Wenn ich dir so zuhöre bekomme ich och gleich wieder richtig Bock 😎🤘

[@riamiwovideos]

allways nice locations for a jam:)

[@bl4ckshot237]

very nice!

[@rigiedbekkers9683]

this awesome!

[@famousarmystudio]

nice work. that bass at 8:50 is killer

[@Heathcliff_hensel]

Oh I miss summer, it's 0 degrees right now.

[@jenskuhnemann1241]

Unfortunaltely you can't tell by listening through you tube... I got serious problems getting proper deep bass out of the a4. the bass tom on the ar is way more powerful. Any useful hints on how to get the sub right? Looks like a really nice vacation... .

[@DapaykSolo]

***** hey jens, do you mean the bass drum? with the right cutoff point and some resonance, you'll get some pretty decent kick out of the a4. but still the ar is made for that and it's easy to adjust... ;)

[@jenskuhnemann1241]

Dapayk Solo Thanks for your answer :) I was referring to the bass from the a4. I use an analog 4 and analog rytm as well and i struggle to get a decent sub bass out of the a4. compared to the a4 the bass one of the ar seems to be way more powerful. With an EQ after the a4 it is ok but still not as punchy on the bottom end as I hoped to be (had the ar before the a4 and had quite high expectations). Nice set by the way :)

[@MadelnMachines]

***** I wonder if the Analog Keys really does have better sub as elektron claim.

[@jenskuhnemann1241]

+Pete Horam According to user reports there isn't much of an audible difference. After some goggleing it seems that on the a4 apparently the waveform changes when playing the lower octaves so you won't see/hear/get a classic sawtooth but a somewhat asymmetrical waveform which should be responsible for th a4 sounding kind of thin. According to the guy who did the analysis the waveform can be shaped to a bit more symmetrical form using the first filter with cutoff opened completely, resonance up to somewhat around 70 and a bit overdrive and filtering with filter 2. I can't remember the link but the guy shows some shots of an oscilloscope which showed a much more symmetrical wave. I have been at my parents for the weekend so I wasn't able to confirm but I will try tonight. Hopefully this gives the punch at the bottom I was hoping for otherwise I might get a miniatur I control with CV from the A4 and layer the a4 on top. Dapayk Solo Sorry for hijacking your thread.

[@RyanGogginsTv]

If you want a good bass on the a4, my method is to use the 2 filter the first is highfreq cutoff, put it really low reso depend of you and your taste The second one is a lowfreq cutoff, on this one i put the freq a litlle bit up like a quarter max and the reso up to the middle or less The lowfreq cutoff make the bass sound good

[@alexanderstohr4067]

Hey there! Sag mal, spielst du Drums über den Four? Oder hast du den RYTM bei 4:34 via Four angesteuert? Grüße und komm mal wieder nach Kassel - bald ist documenta ;)

[@DapaykSolo]

es kommen auch drums aus dem four. wenn ich mich recht erinnere, sind an besagter stelle die claps aus dem four und die hats aus dem rytm. aber hey.... das ist schon 2,5 jahre her... ;)

[@trukxelf]

set wich like sandwich but stacked with deep groovy layers

[@woutervandam7334]

very inspiring, do I understand correctly if I think it's 90% analog four? That even many drums come from the four? I have both.... and have the feeling I have to create beats with Rytm and pads, leads and bass with Four... when I see this it feels I have to look more outside 'the box'....

[@DapaykSolo]

yes, some of the drums are coming from the a4. most of the hihats from the rytm. if i would do the same set all over again, it probably would be the other way around as i use the rytm way more now. ;)

[@cutterstrophal]

Hey! Nice Work!!!! I wonder how you treated the hats in terms of groove and tuning?!? cheers!

[@MoodFreak]

very inspiring! thanks for that insight :D

[@799riccardo]

Bravo!

[@veta.m1428]

Amazzziiiiiiing

[@romansynthie9590]

ab min 5.40 is vorbei. vakuum im Bauch macht sich bemerkbar. Danke.

[@Drake44444]

Excellent!!! Can I ask you a quick question? Did you program all the drum pattern changes in advance?

[@georgefenoulhetwalker7673]

Very good. Shades of Tejada in best poss way. Doff my cap 2u

[@FreqBoutique]

Sexy song, love the arrangements and that you know your Elektrons! Fish jumped out of the water at 7:32 What's your Soundcloud?

[@wojciechhabdas2483]

love ❤

[@Bangadio]

How do you sync everything to run off one clock? I just got the analog rytm and am trying to sync it up with my mixer while djing. I run traktor with the mixer so i know traktor will be the master but any advice on how to set this up would be appreciated! good video by the way.

[@Towly263]

good stuff

[@pb8541]

Hey Dapayk, how is this megacool base made that starts at around Minute 8 on the analog four? Mainly with note- and parameterslides? Just diggin into this machine as an analog beginner... anyone else a hint?

[@DapaykSolo]

yeah, it's pretty much just parameterslides...

[@256k_]

I was under the impression that the elektron series was mostly sample based.... you're saying they all have internal synthesis too? man.... im really regretting the electribe!

[@DapaykSolo]

the analog four & the rytm are analog synths (the rytm plays samples as well). the octatrack is a super powerfull sampler... check them out! there fun! ;)

[@SteveStereo1]

schön!

[@esdee303]

Bei 3:30 und weiter, ist das ein Arpeggio, dessen Geschwindigkeit du einfach anhebst?

[@DapaykSolo]

exakt! ;)

[@TomahAwkDJ7]

Hey Dapayk ! Amazing set you're performing here :) ! It makes me want to buy on of the Elektron machines :D Btw Which one would you advice as a stand-alone machine to begin with between the two ? (i can only afford one atm ^^)

[@DapaykSolo]

+Thomas Bartoll thanks! the rytm is more flexible, because of the sample play option...

[@basehead617]

livin the life

[@Digiphex]

I love Aix and all the cities around there. I would have liked this better if you were actually IN the pool, I feel cheated.

[@thematteblack6606]

which machine is producing the bass sound t 8:54?

[@DapaykSolo]

analog 4

[@FreqBoutique]

Someone smart in the USA would do great to book you here

[@EliahHoliday]

I'm curious, as we only have two hands and therefore it be difficult to tweak the AR and tweak a synth like the A4 at the same time if you use preset pattern chains on the AR?

[@DapaykSolo]

yes, chains are a good way to have your hands free for some time, but somehow i never use them...

[@dockta403]

haha a tough life! very nice work

[@danieljauch3109]

DOPE!!!

[@franciscofresen1915]

I really like the sound of the CH. Did u use the internal classic CH or OH of the AR? Great mini live

[@DapaykSolo]

francisco fresen actually, during the set, i used them both...

[@franciscofresen1915]

Dapayk Solo I realized that the one that i like is come's from the AF...I tried to get close with the Classic CH but still sounds different. I used the internal drive and the band pass filter. Sounds good too. Thanks for answering back

[@yueeque]

Geile Nummer. Die Kisten scheinen Spass zu machen wenn man den Dreh raus hat. Respekt. Wie war der Wein ? :-)

[@tobiasstroner9679]

hey niklas grüsse aus bayern, als erstes bombensound den du aus den kisten kitzelst ! da du hier in dem etwas älterem video ja trotzdem noch antwortest frag ich einfach mal. ist es möglich mit den neuen electribes annähernd sowas zu machen wie du zwischen minute 3 und 4 in diesem video? also quasi die synth melodie komplett out of sync laufen zu lassen und dann wieder in den sync zu finden ? ich glaub ich hab mir des video schon 20 mal reingezogen und versteh immer noch nich wie des funktioniert :-) bin ganz am anfang was live pa betrifft ;-) nutze nen electribe2, die sampler version und die volcas... kann man damit irgendwie sowas reproduzieren ? wär mega wenn du antwortest

[@SinusOfficial]

Das macht er mit dem arpeggiator vom analog four, da kannst die Geschwindigkeit einstellen, vielleicht hilft dir das weiter, weiß aber nicht ob sowas bei den Electribes oder volcas möglich ist.

[@DapaykSolo]

+SinusOfficial ja, exakt! das läuft über die temporegelung vom arp. mit den volcas oder dem electribe klappt das meines wissens nicht.

[@SinusOfficial]

+Dapayk Solo hab auch ne rytm und den four, daher hab ich das gleich bemerkt :D kannst gerne mal rein klicken, hab auch paar live Videos hochgeladen :)

[@jaimepaiva8847]

watch out for that bottle

[@stoffhorten9514]

The 6-10m bit is of extremely high quality, all of it is but that is jokes man.

[@marcinslonczewski640]

super :)

[@maddinfeist808]

voll geil

[@manuel-bossard]

Hey Dapayk, How do you like the DL1608? Useful? Im considering it for my live set rig to replace the sound card + mixer + ableton combo

[@DapaykSolo]

I really like the DL1608... used it in +35 degrees celsius and -10, it never let me down. But it will not replace a good sounding soundcard... ;)

[@marcus268]

Dapayk Solo Which soundcard do you use ?

[@DapaykSolo]

Marcus Sannig There is no soundcard or computer in this setup. It's just the Elektron Rytm drum machine & the Analog Four synth.

[@marcus268]

Dapayk Solo Yes, i see that, i was referring to your commment, that a soundcard beats the mixer in sound quality, so i wonderd what you use in your studio to record.

[@DapaykSolo]

Marcus Sannig I use the RME hammerfall Multiface II in the studio.

[@Honeysmack]

What kind of red was it? nice work!

[@room44radio]

yeaaaah
