EP-133 // BEAT TAPE

[@SONWU]

🔥my new sample pack "DOJO DRUMS vol.1" is now available here 🔥 ko-fi.com/s/5abd52420c

[@dokertimusic7934]

Love your work! I can’t get videos to play on your sample pack pages… likely the only thing stopping me giving you my £. Can you help me work out why?

[@SONWU]

@@dokertimusic7934 Hey! Sorry for the trouble, but I have no idea why it's not working. It's just an embedded youtube video…any specific packs you are interested in? The videos are also all on my youtube, like this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/nabPq4htrd5me7s Let me know if you can't find them!

[@summarity]

Perfect vibe and visuals.

[@SONWU]

Much appreciated 🙏

[@Fartastro]

@sonwu where did you get track 7 vocals? super slick

[@NovakTheEnjoyer]

Great editing! Great beats! This is a winner 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.

[@SONWU]

🙏 Thank you and Merry Christmas!

[@thomasrussell2812]

Finally a good demo

[@SONWU]

🙏

[@Soundwrecker]

I've been having fun on mine. It is very immediate and allows easy couch jams to flow. Versatile sequencer with long parts and many parts. It's all really good; if I didn't read the internet I'd say great build quality.

[@SONWU]

Haha, yeah…a lot of drama but it’s a fun device.

[@enochroot9438]

awesome work dude, you're a master with the KO2

[@SONWU]

I appreciate it! Although there may be a little way to mastery yet ;)

[@Soundwrecker]

Nice bunch of grooves! I have not seen mention that KOII has THE COW!!! Love me some cow.

[@SONWU]

Thank you! It’s the chorus, bot the cow ;)

[@caevv6026]

ERSTER! :D sehr nice, wie immer! :) bin auch fleißig am üben. hatte zum glück kein defektes unit, lediglich der metronome knob cap lässt sich nicht mehr abnehmen :D

[@SONWU]

Danke! Mein Y Knopf geht auch nicht mehr ab…besser so, als wenn er von alleine abfällt :)

[@Jin-Hu]

Nice addition to the Star Wars aesthetic man, are you happy with it? I just got a Polyend Tracker otherwise I’d be considering one too

[@reneeschke]

Pleeeease an uncut and in depth rundown in how you built one of them with audio commentary of the performance!

[@SONWU]

You can check this previous livestream where I make some beats, the rest is just some muting and recording fader movements: kzbin.infortLZf8WYsuw?si=Wh7qHhRtM1dDrmsI

[@averyprice9422]

Snare sounds like a rico wade snare ... so good Edit: the track 2 snare.

[@weirdrebel6546]

Dopeness rocking with this & had to repeat track 6 a few times

[@SONWU]

Thanks, that’s nice to hear!

[@marcelvogel805]

awesome. are all the sounds on board or did you sample stuff?

[@SONWU]

I sampled most stuff (apart from the drums) myself. There are quite a few usable stock samples on there though.

[@CNTRRNDM]

Yeah! Bloody awesome, mate! Well done!

[@SONWU]

Thanks man!

[@colganjohnson6330]

This is dope. Good stuff

[@SONWU]

Thank you, glad you like it!

[@SonicVibe]

all good last my fav that bass line tho

[@sclr]

Gotta agree. That bassline is

[@SONWU]

Thanks 🙏 sadly I had to cut this one short, as I didn't have the files…so I had to chop up a youtube video of mine :D

[@SkerryVibe]

Excellent beats!

[@SONWU]

Thank you so much!

[@ronaldwild]

awesome!

[@SONWU]

Thanks!

[@spectrumunit]

NIIIIIIICE! Dude, you're on fire!!! I also own a KOII and it is so much fun just mashing some buttons! How do you organize longer songs? Put more Bars on the same Pattern or do multiple different scenes and switch between them back and forth? Or do you record into a DAW and arrange there? Anyways - keep those videos coming! You're a real inspiration!

[@SONWU]

I tried to arrange it all in the unit using multiple patterns and recording all kinds of changes…and then record the whole performance, but came upon some "bugs" which made it difficult. So I had to cut the performances up a little in post.

[@spectrumunit]

@@SONWU Yeah, I also find it suuper difficult to arrange longer tracks on the EP-133 itself. But my hopes are high that we will see a pattern or scene chaining feature some time in the future via a firmware update. Since I also own an old OP-1, I currently record everything on it, arrange it there and just play it back from the tape recorder. Fiddly as hell, but it works. Somehow.

[@SONWU]

Yes, an external recorder makes things easier right now…I might sample loops into the Octatrack next…@@spectrumunit

[@loungelyric]

straight fire homie

Thanks!!!

so good bro 🔥🔥

Thank you 🙏

[@ManCalledMif]

I think track 4 is my favourite.2:53

[@SONWU]

Thanks for your feedback!

[@finnydog]

incredible

[@SONWU]

🙏

[@skyddsrum3350]

Nice work! 🤜🏻🤛🏻 I know you don’t really do reviews, but where would you put this one compared to the other grooveboxes you have and use?

[@SONWU]

…good question. It definitely is a lot of fun, which is important. Price wise…it cost me 50.000¥, and for 75.000¥ one could get a used Octatrack mk1, which is some serious competition. The answer is, I don't really know, but the KO is cool ;)

[@skyddsrum3350]

@@SONWU Fun is good! ✌🏻I’ve downsized my studio and right now I have the Deluge and the Push 3, but I’m hoping the Weihnachtsmann will be bringing a EP-133! 🎅🏻 it really looks a lot of playfulness and as you mentioned; Fun! = Easy the most appealing aspect for me!

Thanks!!!

[@maciekkobylanski]

Love it, can we get some basic tutorials?

[@SONWU]

Working on it!

[@maciekkobylanski]

@@SONWU can’t wait to check em 😉

[@Paragraph8]

I think track 4 is my favorite, but all are very good :)

[@SONWU]

Thanks, one of my favorites too :)

[@LoveMeBack]

The KO doesn’t appeal to me, but I’m curious about the other versions.

[@SONWU]

Me too!

[@brandonford7725]

Wut other versions

[@SONWU]

@@brandonford7725 nothing confirmed…yet

[@brandonford7725]

@@SONWU o ok cause I was thinking bout getting this... is it worth the purchase

[@pilafp]

do I hear some FKJ?

[@SONWU]

Never heard it before now, but thanks for the tip ;)

[@yarrowcentral]

Tutorials for dummies please!!!!

[@SONWU]

I'll keep it in mind, but gotta see how much time I have!

[@yarrowcentral]

@SONWU if I book a private opz session can we spend the time on the KO II?

[@SONWU]

👌Absolutely! But new lessons start in the new year. If that's okay with you, we can look at the KOII together!@@yarrowcentral

[@iShredStreets]

[@SONWU]

Thank you! Looking forward to making the next tape.
