sampling, resampling and basic stuff always some shift functions ahead.
transitions and whole sets cost a lot of time to prepare, had a licence for octaedit but wasn’t deep in. I just could’t get along with patterns/banks on the octatrack in a live situation. Other than that you can really do everything with this machine but you have to be on the right screen page (or program the right macros on an a knob page) to reach the functions. no P-Locks, no direct mangling of Audio and the lack of scenes are the biggest disadvantage compared to the OT imo. There is a lot i will miss and before reading the manual i found myself trying to transfer the elektron workflow, which is, from that perspective, fantastically logic!įor example: Without thinking i was holding a note on a pad and turning some parameters on the screen - with no luck. Beeing an Ableton user for over a decade now the ability to work with clips and manipulate each drum Pad, Audio Track, Synthvoice individual with some eq, comps and characteristic FX really fits my approach in producing, alltho i bought it mainly for live gigs. As pointed out somewhere here it feels more like a limited DAW than propably the Live (don’t own one) or the OT. Was a bit damped at first but within some sessions and after some little learning tasks my worklflow got really quick now. 
I have several hundrets of Clips and Stems i made during the years and also sequence my modular.(mainly melodic stuff) Rytm plays along. In my case it replaces the Octatrack (in conjunction with bomebox, QuNexus Keyboard & Midi Fighter Twister) or laptop, RME UCX and touchable pro on ipad at other venues.
Pads feel smooth, i like the size, fingerdrumming is like on the rytm, no big swaggy mpc pads for sure. i just realized it doesn’t fit in to any of my gigbags and tourcases. Still lighter than computer, interface and push of course, but the dimensions are a little unhandy. Heres is my endless examination: (after two weeks) Been on muffs and but as an elektronaut i feel more confident to expose this device with you boiz&girlz. Hi! Got the force in germany since day 1.
