#mpc60 #samplers #rolandEspen Kraft said you got scammed. I disagree.Ricky Tinez2024-09-27 | So Espen Kraft has said we got scammed if we bought gear. But I think there's more to the argument than a "synth is just a vst wrapped in hardware." So here's my take on the topic, it's actually about efficiency and workflow. That's al we're paying for to an extent. Not the sound. Also know that I've worked for multiple synth manufacturers, so there's that haha and that's always been my opinion while at different companies. There's very little we can offer when it comes to sound, but a lot when it comes to how someone creates.

TL:DR the Roland P-6 is cool, you can't really hate on it too much for the price! It does offer a ton, and tbh... I wish the Granular section was a synth on its own at this price. In this video I'll make a house track from scratch on just the Roland P-6 while sampling some of my other synthesizers like the Pro-3 and the 3rd Wave. I love the Lofi crunch it can give to samples.

The Nightverb's controls keep you in the sweet spot, allowing you to explore everything from massive off-earth cathedral reverb to intimate club backroom vibes.

#dawless #digitaktii #housemusicMidi Sync Showdown! My mind is COMPLETELY changed...Ricky Tinez2024-08-03 | I'm trying to get to the bottom of this.. If anyone knows some answers, fling them in the comments below! I decided to spend a few days testing the accuracy of both the MRCC 880 and the Floating Points (ERM) Multiclock. I ran multiple tests, with different trigger patterns, in multiple sitations, at different CPU levels, and they both sucked! Neither of the units provided a super "stable" clock. BUT both devices provided me with a useable clock. Maybe there is a point where this midi jitter matters to someone but I can't imagine the reason where it would. All my tests resulted in LESS than 1ms of jitter. Apparently, according to the internet, humans can't really hear anything less than 10? I know I can especially if its 2 sounds trying to be in the same place. What are your thoughts on all this? Also forgot to mention the Multiclock can do DIN sync/sync 24 for them vintage baddies.

#midi #ableton #synthesizerGoodbye Multiclock! A Cheaper & Better MIDI Solution.Ricky Tinez2024-07-27 | FINALLY! I found a product I can actually recommend besides getting a multiclock. For 95% of people who think they need a Multiclock, they should just get the MRCC 880 (amzn.to/4fl3V5m) It does midi clock and midi routing. has really simple filters that can help with funky messages. AND it can save presets! so you don't need a computer for it to run properly.

#dawless #octatrack #housemusicEP-133 VS SP-404sx : the choice is easier than you think.Ricky Tinez2024-05-04 | Used EP-133 Prices - bit.ly/4dq1j55 Used SP Prices - bit.ly/44ur7sI The answer is easier than you might think! One is a groove box and the other is a wilder sampler mangler that can also be a groove box at times! TL:DR is you want to make beats quickly and straight forwardly, get the EP. If you want a sampler mangler and FX processing unit get the SP!

The goal is to show you how I take songs that I've made in Ableton Live and export them properly to be played on the Octatrack for live performances. We'll be talking about banks, patterns, parts, and so much more. It's surprisingly easier than you might think, but there are a few steps that you need to do and other steps that you need to avoid so let's get into it.

#octatrack #dawless #abletonFocused on: Making Drums That Matter!Ricky Tinez2024-02-10 | FOCUSED on the creation of drums for house music and some of the nuance that help tie them together. Around halfway, we'll bring in some Piano samples that really help us get a sense of where the song can go! These are drums for a collaboration project I have with @mattwildemusic, an amazing pianist, so I want my drums to hold down the rhythm while not taking too much focus away from the piano. We'll be using the Digitakt to get this going so I can recall the sounds easily later. Yes, I do work for Elektron, but that's the day job and this is me jamming on the drum machine that I've been using for years before doing work for them.

Along the way I've learned how to use these sounds and shape other sounds into what pleases my ear.

It increases the speed at which I make music a ton too. I hope you find this video helpful, thanks again for the support and watching.

#musicproducer #synthesizer #dawlessHow I Turn Neo-Soul into House Music!Ricky Tinez2023-12-23 | Let's turn neo-soul into house music, using the Octatrack! This is one of my favorite techniques that I used to do a ton on the MPC4000 for my old VCF alias. The track we sampled today is "Slow" by The Love Expiriment (bit.ly/4atgQj8).
