Is the Analog Rytm still good? (NEW OS 1.70 update)

[@RickyTinez]

dancing in my kitchen right now, this beat HITS!

[@jonforhere]

Ricky and Jon collab would be legendary

[@schnoodlevideo]

I edited this episode past my bedtime! and I'm not even tired! thanks for watching everyone!

[@EVILJAMARR]

You’re doing good work

[@tommyk88888]

I’m not jealous at your job, but I do appreciate it a lot 🙏🏻

[@neverbeforeseen160]

I watch every week and every week I'm blown away. Thanks for sharing your gift man.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for appreciating what I have to offer

[@uncoiledfish2561]

He needs to talk with a vocalist. Record some bits. Chop them In. A wee bit of rap over the top. Would be good.

[@bongakhumalo6141]

the textures on this beat are sublime

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thank ye

[@totaled_camry]

this beat put me into a sleeping cap and gave me an old half melted candle, chill

[@jonmakesbeats]

Sleepytime tea type beat

[@The_Catalyzt]

This felt amazing. Found myself playing along to it. Opened a synth in my DAW, picked a lead patch, pretended I knew what I was doing. Thank you for sharing yourself with us.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Oh that’s great. Hope it inspired some music

[@MrBananovitch]

I'm not even that much into hip hop music rn, but have been watching you every week for some time because of VIBES! Really appreciate what you're doing

[@tubbymusic05]

you literally never miss its crazy

[@jonmakesbeats]

Hard to miss when you have a good editor lol

[@firekeeper09]

Would love to see a combo where you chop up a break to use as a constant and then layer in one shots from the Rytm. Best of both worlds.

[@ultra1000]

Jimbo always brings the heat

[@jonmakesbeats]

As always

[@LiamKillen]

It’s really cool to see you create a beat that’s not 120 beats and above EDM. Sounds awesome man

[@joe5808]

Jimbo, I can’t get enough of these videos. What a vibe

[@thechrisdo]

Every beat you make feels like a treat. Thank you for doing this and inspiring people!

[@lindasson]

The vibes on this jawn were amazing fam, nicely done!!🙏🏾✊🏾💚

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks Linda’s Son

[@djangofett4879]

You know what else? The Rytm mki is still frickin awesome too. Exact same sound engine with slightly less interface and I/O than the mkii and i was able to get one for just 600 bucks. mki is smaller on the desk too. it is good friends with my Tr-8s.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Yup

[@powerdove]

Yeah I don't really do any finger-drumming, so I haven't felt the need to upgrade from my MKI. Really appreciate Electron still showing it love!

[@AlecBoyd]

There’s some magic in working late, but I can’t never go to bed after. Too many thoughts going on about what to change next time.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Not me I passed tf out after this lol

[@EZBOT_]

Great track Jon!

[@jonmakesbeats]

My man

[@mindexpansionpuzzles]

This is a real sliding across the Ferrari letting the Mateba go type beat.

[@quantummonastery]

Wicked as usual! love all your videos , one of my fav music channels. what a vibe

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thank you for that

[@jeplarson6519]

heat always. thanks Jon

[@wetwillyy92]

incredible work

[@tonyg1997]

Your progression from mpc to elektron full time is inspiring. I can’t get past the clunky MPC workflow

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

me neither which is why I gravitated toward Elektron gear.

[@ameeqalli4248]

Clunky 😂 you mean it’s not for you….

[@chevere4209]

My favorite box of all time! I actually really enjoy chopping samples with the start point adjustments on it. I know it’s not the most usual approach but I like the results I get. Beat is dope as hell man! 👊🔥

[@leftmono1016]

I do this on the DT. You get some really creative results. Haven’t done it on the RYTM as the start resolution was poor. But I think that’s been improved too.

[@chevere4209]

@@leftmono1016 1.7 update increased the resolution of the grid by so much you can time stretch breaks!

[@leftmono1016]

@@chevere4209 - nice, thanks 👍

[@G.GordonMidi]

Sounds good, Jimbo! My dumbass just bought a used A4, now I’m kicking myself for not grabbing a RYTM instead

[@djangofett4879]

l recommend not kicking yourself. analog four is my favorite piece of gear of all time. Analog four is also great gor making drum sounds, its much more versatile than rytm. i have both. Rytm mki and Four mkii.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Nah that’s a special piece as well

[@G.GordonMidi]

@@djangofett4879 Right on. Good to hear! Maybe it just hasn’t clicked for me yet. I thought I’d enjoy integrating it with my Octatrack but anytime I hook up one Elektron box to another, it’s like my brain overloads from the complexity and amount of options. I should probably be happy that the OT is enough on it’s own but G.A.S. is a MF-er

[@SONWU]

A video by you is always good to wake up to!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thank you SONWU

[@blato4515]

yo dude, gotta say you're probably the only musician who makes youtube videos that's worth cheking out. really love your projects and can't wait to hear more from you.

[@radazeonv8821]

I bet this beat tastes as good as it sounds. Waldorful stuff as usual, Jimbo.

[@jonmakesbeats]

We are the dreamers of dreams

[@Daniel_Verhey]

Hypnotic beat, I could listen to this for hours and never get sick of it

[@jonmakesbeats]

I have to listen to something for hours as I make it so that’s definitely a pre-requisite hahah

[@Daniel_Verhey]

@@jonmakesbeats lol it’s all starting to make sense now 🤔

i was stressed all day but jimbo really put me in a chill mood

[@jonmakesbeats]

Chill-bo

[@nzyme]

mate's got mage knight in the background 🔥 also I love how most of your beats feel like they could be in old video games or at least have elements of it... i guess there's a reason for the CRT TV

[@bartduwez8968]

More Rytm please! I love it!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Might have to bring it back

[@robertlyall]

Nice work Jimbo!

[@uweschnitzler9551]

I really really love what you are doing!

[@somniomi]

damn jimbo this one whips!

[@EVILJAMARR]

I love mine. Never getting rid of it

[@jonmakesbeats]

They way they keep upping MSRP it’s as good as gold

[@djkickflip_amsterdam]

THIS BEAT THOOOOOOOO, amazing

[@noelbreitenbach8673]

You’re getting real tasty with them keys

[@jonmakesbeats]

I’ve been spending a lot of time playing them this year

[@kingdomkeys-prod]

Taking me back! 💚

[@YesIAmTheFiend]

this is dope as hell

[@oluaoMAIszika]

great video, I'm a big fan bro, keep up with the amazing content

[@ne_kitk_a]

Idk why, but after that peek at the camera at 3:11 I really felt like I was in session with you, when you was in sessions with me

[@jonmakesbeats]

An intimate moment

[@lastnamefirstname6035]

I mean... is it still da best drum computer everrr?! YES!

[@BrancoArgenta]

This thing will be good forever!

[@EricRaymondSF]

Thank you for bringing back the RYTM beast with the new firmware update! Loved this one.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Had to

[@eddy4719]

god damn, i love your videos

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching, Eddy

[@fallenrise321]

I’d like a series of you doing beats on like Reason, FL , logic, albeton. I’m sure daw users would love to see how you navigate them

[@halpehalpe]

JIMBOOOO GOING CRAZYY

[@Dgblo]

Bangerz only.

[@gasparpini]

It’s nice to have a channel doing such a good content. I’m trying to figure out what is better for me. An Analog Rytm mkt 2 or the digitakt + the syntak. I need one or the other to create my own drum samples in the studio.. I work a lot with sound design and in the DAW I usually use synth and sample layers to make my own drum sounds. When I say digitakt + syntak it’s because I’m thinking about syncing the MIDI of the two devices and layering the synth (of syntak) with samples (of the digitakt). Example: in digitakt a clap sample and in the syntak a synth model clap. I’m trying to figure out which choice has more sound design power. In the Analog Rytm mkt 2 I can resample… but in the digitakt + syntak it looks like there is a bigger range of sounds for me to tweak and experiment with. What would be your suggestion? Thank you!

[@Rareos]

Just bought the RYTM for the third time, because it’s the charm.. I hope.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Why not a fourth

[@skydiver117]

Same here.. going to buy the Rytm for the fourth time soon 😅

[@musicjunkie696]

Jon, you're the best. I love you man ❤ I'm so glad your channel popped up out of nowhere, having been a fan for a long time. Your content is a true joy to watch and it's so great to see you in this element. It's such a great blend of music creation, gear love and humour that just hits perfectly. It's such a vibe!!! You also helped me push through with the octatrack and stay committed to it as it's a true head fuck at first. I really love the box now. I will be a patreon supporter soon to show appreciation, funds are just a little tight for me now. Cheers mate, big love from Australia ❤

[@streetwaxtv]

New camera or lens? It looks extra crispy

[@jonmakesbeats]

Yup!

[@Reallythinkaboutyourself]

The Legend of Dragoon is an underrated classic. Fine choice sir.

[@jonmakesbeats]

It really is

[@parkercarron4523]

Please do a video on your process with recording synths and stuff into the octatrack

[@johnnylonz]

A slowed down and more lofi version of this would be a dope chillwave beat

[@dzarz23]

Jim-bo knows Rytm. I love they added the 2 acoustic bd/sd engines and that chip tune thing. Always imparts some nice character on samples too with the analog compressor and filters.

[@kevinbatchelor9566]

I use my RYTM on most projects. It's great. Love the beat you put together. Lovely crunch.

[@ron.joshtin]

so so so good

Inspiring!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks

[@iancain6647]

Yo Jimbo, just killed it!

[@Alckemy]

I’d really like one or a syntakt but I hate they raised the price. It’s so expensive and difficult to justify over any modern mpcs. I still want it. Just not for 1600

[@jonmakesbeats]

Yeah it’s definitely a luxury item at this point

listening on a pair of good headphones. wonderful.

[@gehadbarghouthi2561]

I don’t comment much, but when I do, it’s to let you know that beat in the first 1:39 of the video already sounds like a hit. Great job, came here for the RYTM but left with wanting to actually learn piano. Such a key instrument

[@PRODUCEDBYAD]

Man music got me staying ul waaaaay past my bedtime. Couldn't give up music for better sleep if I tried

The Rytm seems kinda underrated. I’ve had mine for a couple of years, it’s beautiful. I think people shy away from it because there are so many parameters… just experiment and play!!

[@juanalderetedelapena5161]

hella dope

[@santinoadamcik850]

I have to to say this one of my favorite beats I’ve heard from you. The yoshi island synth making me feel sum😢

[@jonmakesbeats]

thanks for watching!

[@dracul74]

i was opposed to Elektron gear for a long time (really just because they cost a lot and they are their own quirky thing, lol).... once I got one I was hooked and now have several. I don't use all my boxes on every track... but am almost always inspired and blown away with they can do... a4 is such a sleeper hit for me....if u have one would love to see it a bit more.

[@ron.joshtin]

Why your hair looking more lucious than mine on that thumbnail

[@mechamussolini]

heya, i see you're using the hd800's now instead of the 770s, any thoughts?

[@jonmakesbeats]

Two completely different headphones for different purposes. I started wearing these because not being able to hear my environment for hours at a time was making me dizzy

[@legitimatefrenzy]

The whole time I heard this beat I kept hearing westside gunn saying ayo

[@magnuseriksson8081]

Extremely good, I want Elektron Gear and learn to play the right chords to the tune :-)
