![]() I set up an additional channel for breakdowns. Play around with phrasing, combined track variations, etc. I rebuild the arrangement here, multi-track, so that I can EQ and process the parts individually. Then I stop the recording, set that first master channel realtime arrangement to the side, and cut out each individual solo’d part and put them in their own channels in Ableton Live. Filter tweaks, decay tweaks, transposing, LFO tweaks, FX sends, FX tails after mutes, etc. Then, when done, I keep the sequencer running and I jam out a few minutes each, of “solos” of the 6 individual parts (well maybe not the kick drum). We’ll call this the “master channel realtime arrangement” ![]() Get some quality control-all in there, as I can use these for little breakdowns in the final arrangement. Whilst recording stereo, I generally jam out 5 or 6 minutes of the tune as stereo to get a general idea of what kind of arrangement I’d prefer. Then arrange and not be afraid to duplicate tracks to make interesting, effected variations and layers. ![]() Then perform each track somewhat while soloing each track. The general ideal is get a good realtime arrangement to reference what I want to accomplish in the end. This is the workflow I used when I was making tunes on the OP-1… It’d be great also to apply a bit of EQ to the patterns as sometimes I find the cut-off filter limiting in trimming/boosting highs or lows. ![]() Do you know any cheap & straight-forward digital or physical solution to do so? It’s gonna make sense just if you can sequence such midi program changes, otherwise it would identical to jamming live on the M:S.Īnother idea I heard is to record/export single patterns and then sequence them via a DAW / External Sequencer but I don’t know whether there are cost-compatible solution of this sort. I heard that one possible solution would be to send midi program change from an external hardware / software. Therefore I’m here to hear which solutions you’ve come up with to put together different pattern & pattern variations and record a sort of song. So far I’m 99% satisfied and the only feature that I found to be poorly implemented is the patter chain function: it’s cumbersome, prone to errors it and it does not entirely replace a song mode (a feature completely missing on this device). Wanted a cheap device to enter the world of Elektron before jumping to something pricier and packed with more features like the Digitakt. ![]()
