Dirtywave M8 Tracker : Selection Mask Tutorial! and other Key Commands Part 1

[@StephenMcLeod]

Really nice clear explanation of the basics. The real mind blowing moment though is at 4:20 (coincidence?). Whoah! I had no idea that was possible. Thanks for putting this together.

[@krisztianhadi]

Thanks

[@matstjean]

Finally!! I am comfortable with my companion, thanks

[@Jimantronic]

I'm demystifying this little critter one step at a time, but your patient explanations are hugely helpful. Thank you 🙏

[@MidlifeSynthesist]

Dude this video is essential viewing for anyone who owns or wants to own an M8. Thank you so much for this bro❤️

[@soffter]

Awh man thank YOU

Your content quality is siqnificantly better than many channels with large patreon's. I respect your sentiment (and your work/ethics), but the market clearly disagrees. I would gladly support a patreon with 0 expectations/conditions/strings attached, love your format/style, would love to free that artistic process from any current external constraints, and I suspect I'm not alone with this sentiment. This channels fits seamlessly in my feed between the likes of RMR, loopop, Ricky Tinez, cuckoo, and others, just say'n.

[@soffter]

this is the nicest thing i've seen in a long time and i appreciate you so much.

Super helpful. Man, the m8 is such a weird yet ingenious devices. So different to anything I have used.

[@HenleyBailey]

Awesome tips, thanks!

[@SamuelChasuk]

this is mad helpful, the selection mask was scaring me. still scared of tables, but baby steps

[@soffter]

thanks man! don't worry i'm getting around to covering tables too, it's a lot to try and condense tho!

[@Kofla2000]

Thanks ! Very usefull for beginers like me!

[@christianbazanthegemark]

Awesome explanation, thanks for it!

[@calderwood9641]

Thank you very much for making this.

Super helpful videos thank you. How do I change the color of my blank chains? It would make my screen some much easier to read. Edit: it was my theme that made all my chains the same brightness/color

[@greentoaster]

If you're talking about cloning you should probably mention deep cloning too

[@geocache66today]

Thanks Soffter but doesn't pressing Edit duplicate your last entry as opposed to copying whatever chosen selected cell?

[@soffter]

yep! but it only holds one value per column of data when you do that, the selection mask lets you duplicate whole rows, columns, or even both at the same time!

6:40 When I clone chains on song view, and I want to paste the chains I cloned from (which has now been overwritten) it doesn’t work. In selection mode, when the chains are selected, I press shift edit, and all chains are cloned to new empty chains. This works fine. But when I go to the line below and try pasting the old chains, nothing gets inserted. Any ideas? Seems to work for you, at 6:40

[@soffter]

Hmmm, that’s interesting - cloning doesn’t copy it seems, so if you clone a chain, you’ll still need to copy it if you want another instance of it -so cloning is a function separate from copying, even tho they use similar key commands I hope that helps, if not, jump on the m8 discord community- they’re around for help 24/7 !!!
