See? What’d I tell ya?
I went on a little I-don’t-need-it-but-I-want-it binge and got myself a TR-8s, too! I’m still getting to grips with it, but really liking it so far. I do miss having Scatter on a dedicated control though. When I want dirt, I wanna be able to just reach out and toss a handful in.
But 8 variations, selectable auto fills, motion recording, and the ease of adding samples are a decent trade off. The display is way better, too. I don’t mind a limited display, but there are limits to limits.
That minilogue looks like a real hoot.
And the MiniBrute...start giving me patch points and I get a little weak in the knees. If you can solder, you can build your own modules to expand it.
Welcome to the rabbit hole. It’s deep, and full of voltage-controlled rabbits.
On the off chance you’ve got a Nintendo Switch, check out the Korg Gadget. I got it a couple weeks ago and it’s a lot of fun to screw around with. Theoretically multiplayer, but I’ve not tested that yet.
One of these days I’ll get some noise back up on the web. Last time I did, MySpace was still relevant...
Although there’s this, but it’s 40 seconds, thrown together with Animoog, and really only there to buffer the animation against something. What else do you do when you’ve got the day off in Birmingham and it’s raining?
I just had a long message typed and accidentally deleted it so here it is again in short. I love your video! The TR-8s is great! I am not familiar with the scatter function but the drum fill function is useful as long as all of the drums you have loaded are sounds you want in your song. I don’t usually use toms so when I hit the fill button I always end up with a funky Tom fill LOL. I found a site called Aira.org that has patches for the TR-8s to add sounds from other drum machines like the SR-18. I love the minilogue. It is playable right out of the box and Korg has about 400 patches to play with on their website. It is pretty difficult to design a sound from scratch though. That’s where the MiniBrute 2 comes in. Man that thing is a beast! It puts out some deep lows that rattle my room! It comes with a cookbook too that will help you get a quick sound and then you can start knob tweaking. I never knew anything about subtractive synthesis before but once I got the MiniBrute I just dove in the rabbit hole and I love it! I plan to get in to modular but I’m still learning how it all works.
