I have to keep reminding myself that just because Jon is nice with the octatrack, doesn't mean it'll be automatic for me if I get one. Really fighting the g.a.s. right now lol

[@rckyclnshrt4169]

Beyond grateful for the ability to see behind the curtain, thanks for your service to the community with these vids!

[@jonmakesbeats]

That's the intent. These are edited down from the Twitch streams so if you want to see even more how the sausage is made that's the place to go. Thanks for watching

[@kenshiro313]

Simply textbook sausage making

[@CallMe_DrWorm]

@@jonmakesbeats This ain't no... ordinary sausage

[@thewisefromwest6941]

I thought Jon is another one of those youtuber rappers untill i saw mass appeal video of 8y ago....... Then i listened to his discography.. so thankful to see veterans coming in this twitch youtube playground and teacheing and showing behind the scene type things to us.

[@riyalriyali]

I don't have an octatrack but binging your videos has already improved my Ableton workflow by applying the same rules. Really appreciate the effort put in to teach what you know

[@CallMe_DrWorm]

Killer sample selection and placement. Warm cheeky vibe, this is a welcoming channel. And, yet another creator illustrating, end to end, letting it unfold, from all angles. The result still knocks hard, no dilution of the magic after witnessing the proverbial sausage .... Unapologetically, I'm lifting as many techniques as possible, while singing praise to the one who cultivated it.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for the kind words

[@ripoff669]

Thank you for making these videos, Jon. I'm glad we live on a timeline where we get to watch you make such bangers!

[@bit-map]

damn 9 minutes into watching this and then i realize i'm watching one of my favorite producers, big ups to the jonwayne man!! hope to see more vids in the future

[@DeleswaProductions]

Smooth and Soulful vibes. The Octatrack is a deep machine from what I have heard, but you seem to navigate though it with ease and that was really cool how you slipped that CN riff in there for a quick minute. Also love your methodical approach to making heat. Dope session.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching. The Octatrack is the best sampler I've ever used and getting comfortable with it over the years was one of the best decisions I ever made

[@DeleswaProductions]

@@jonmakesbeats That's is awesome. You making it shine.

[@MrJohnHughesHimself]

What a great find! Been a fan for a while but somehow missed this. Love it

[@natetarrh9146]

Your music rips man. Loving the KZbin content. Keep doing you!

[@savestate13]

Awesome, awesome breakdown! I love your creative process, and this has been really inspiring when it comes to my own music! Can't wait to see more content

[@aaroninky]

been loving this channel (and longtime listener). have had an octa for years and never actually used it for hiphop/beats production. inspiring to see a different workflow and way of thinking! keep them coming.

[@Stounson]

This is great, Jon

[@thejuic3]

Would absolutely love to see the beats made from these livestream sessions uploaded somewhere. Love your production style! Keep them coming!

[@eggyherman]

Jon, you are amazingly talented! You're take on synthesis being a time kill (another vid) and how you just get lost and enjoy the OT is so true for me. I have a MiniFreak, Reaper, and I just ordered an OT. You inspire and bring good vibes. Keep it up, man.

[@otnemem760]

Such a soothing beat.

[@dublplus3332]

Really cool to find you on youtube fleshing out your methods, on elektron gear no less! Anyway, just wanted to mention Andrew on Bowser is one of my anthems. Always cheers me up.

[@appleLOLfilmz]

Crazy good, keep it up!! 💯

[@blobmusica]

absolute gold thanks jon

[@darkjord5823]

Darren I hope you keep making octatrack content. I just picked one up and you got the best stuff on it imo.

[@nkrusty3907]

Damn this beat is beautiful, love these videos

[@nelsonfranklingaming]

One of my favs, so happy it made it to YT. ~GET IT NOW~

[@jonmakesbeats]

This one is growing on me as well

[@ModernChair]

Not my regular kind of thing but this was super dope. Super sweet chopping skills my dude 🙏🙏

[@404notfound_93_]

Loving these videos ❤ Keep em coming!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Will do

[@Neossance]

And another one! 🔥🔥🔥

[@bianchimatt6746]

So good, dude! More of this!

[@starchildluke]

This is so good!

[@clothshorse]

Loved it

[@The_Invisible_Man]

Dude you are a top musician

[@andrebarros8448]

Damn that’s a good beat!

[@godbodymondi6983]

Too cold man

[@bang2dis263]

🔥🔥🔥 I’ve been binging your content for two weeks now, loving it. Just came across your channel recently really love the. Polyend tracker vids. 14:35

[@DMS8410]

Thanks for this channel 🙏🏻

[@gabrielbearpig2]

So good

[@Jesception]

Champ ❤️

[@ilchymis4000]

The trombone champ solo was a brave move.

[@domeniquexander_]

Dope 🥁🔥👊🏼

[@melorams22]

damn this is coool

[@foxfiresoundsystem]

that's one tasty lil beat

[@CarlosChoryBecerra]

Lmaooo shout out the JMB producer tag at 11:48 we need it on more videos/beats ahahaha 🗣😎😤

[@jonmakesbeats]

A time may come...

[@Huck]

🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@hamishronald7376]

Another awesome vid! Do you plan on making some vids focusing just on ableton in the future?

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching it. As far as an ableton focused video, I think there are hundreds of people on youtube who would be better at that sort of thing. I really just understand the surface level of it. Just enough to do what I want to do with it.

[@191TheLegend191]

Damn, this is smooth as hell! Vato Gato (knxwledge side project) flipped this same sample on poundofpurp. Love to see the different interpretations by two of the best producers to do it

[@sjb3240]

Adagio flipped it on "Hold Tight" from '97

[@SKRDmusic]

Fire. Again. Cool to see you drop by elektronauts. Any breakbeat packs you’d recommend? Tips on finding samples are welcome as well lol

[@jonmakesbeats]

drum broker dot com has a lot of break packs that are really high quality.

[@mindexpansionpuzzles]

You could always look for the comfy box. RMR has a video about part of it he found.

[@iancain6647]

I fucking love it bro.

[@iancain6647]

I mean it. The whole process. The Rugrats, Yoshi's island, the whole shit.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@SiHargreaves]

Octotrack looks kind of cool man. Was considering a Live 2 but this thing looks like it forces you to use your ears may be?

[@wehavewaysnyc]

Does the octotrack support changing the metronome to emphasize different beats

[@TheFreakingpanda]

hey jon. i bought an octatrack mk2 because of your videos. do you think you could do a tutorial on how to swap out samples? like replacing kicks without resampling the whole chop? or importing multiple samples to 1 track?

[@GRIFTYRODRIGUEZ]

bruh impeach the president works on basically any beat lol.

[@jonmakesbeats]

At this point I only use other drum breaks so they don't get jealous

[@a_8764]

I sold my octatrack because unfortunately I wasn't using it enough to justify the money I spent on it. It's such an amazing machine though, and I think it's underappreciated in hip hop circles. Most of the octatrack community seems to be into glitchy IDM or techno stuff (which is cool too, don't get me wrong) but it's great for almost any style.

[@jonmakesbeats]

I agree that there need to be more examples of different kinds of music on the Octatrack out there. It's a sampler so it's capable of any sample based music. I understand your reasoning for getting rid of yours but I think this would be the one machine I would never sell on the understanding that I could never outgrow it. It's like a box of mystery I get deeper into every time I turn it on.

[@mindexpansionpuzzles]

So many uses and workflows for the Octatrack it's easy to get overwhelmed. Just take what other people are using the Octatrack for and apply it in the context of Hip hop, like EZBOT's template for using the Octatrack as an on the fly remixer with effects.

[@vor946]

you still got polyend tracker? not suggesting anything...:)

[@jonmakesbeats]

Yeah the Tracker and the Play are on my other desk. Still messing around with them but I've really gotten into a groove with the OT lately.

[@steinhalvorsen_]

Wait, who's our host?

[@jonmakesbeats]

It's Jon. Due to budgetary constraints we had to stop hiring out.

[@krisgakakrisqu0717]

worked with Circuit Rhythm already?

[@acidbased]

Wait, are you Jonwayne?

[@acidbased]

Blessed algorithm!

[@PsychologyAcademia]

The problem i had with the Octatrack is when making these lofi gritty tracks the sound destroyed all the hard work. Im luck enough to have got an SP1200 and the sound is amazing compared to the Octatrack which is very sterile. In the end its like a lot of work for a so so end result. Maybe you could do some heavy compression at the end?

[@jonmakesbeats]

Hey, Peter. I think everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion but I think where ours differs is I see the Octatrack as a composition tool and not a mixing one. All of these beats are in a raw state that I then will mix in Pro Tools afterward. That being said I also make beats on the sp-1200 and the same must be done there. In fact, I would say I usually have to do more work in the mixing phase for the 1200 than I do with this. Thanks for watching.

[@youngkosher1718]

Anyone else thinking bout what them drums sound like 😹
