Get the MAX out of 1 Pattern || Digitakt Tutorial #8

0:16 - Track assignments
1:38 - Multiple sounds on one track
5:00 - Fill for extra layers
7:55 - One-Shot on another track

In this video I show you multiple ways how you can get the most out of one single pattern. These are handy tricks to make sure you go way beyond the 8 track limit and maximize the use of a pattern. It's a great way to experiment as well. Using these methods will help you think outside the box when creating grooves. Let limitations spark your creativity. Enjoy!

Thanks for all the great tips for the digitakt. This machine has rocked my world.

Geweldig Dave door jou geniet ik steeds meer van mijn digitakt..

[deepvibez]

Dave Mech, you rock man, you are such a big inspiration to me, cheers bro!

Fill is one of the most useful and most underused functions of the Digitakt. I love using utiming to double use one step using the fill/overlined fill function. Great for bringing some on the fly changes to your patterns. I’m surprised you didn’t talk about this in the video. Say you have a clap that you want to switch to a snare using the fill function. You overline fill the clap place a snare right next to it (with fill param) and then using utime you move the snare into the same step. So that when you press fill it changes on the same step. Very useful. I’m sure you knew about this.

trick after trick after trick, subbed with quickness

So inspirational as always. I'm gonna have to watch this a few times as you're soooo quick on the keys. Keep them coming 😎

[VasiuMusic]

Amazing tutorials bro! Thank you for the inspiration!

[Gruftgrabbler]

Can’t wait to get my Digitakt in a few days. It will be the first piece of gear i own which I can use completely without a computer, besides some synths but they sound lame without FX
So Now i can finally take a machine and make music without a computer which also finally enables me to join a Jamsession :)

I recently bought a digitakt and watched a lot of tutorials but your videos are among the best ! Cant wait to see whats comming. Congrats !

[burningguitarsoul]

Dave, really really enjoying your series - realising the full potential of the DT. keep up the good work!

not sure if you get this request a lot but are you able to do an internal sample management tutorial of some sort? like how to move samples in and out of projects. replacing and removing samples, around the folder structures and in general how you manage your samples? i remembered the first time meddling with it was absolutely awful!!

[alienanxiety]

You should put in a feature request for "LOCK ALL PARAM" shortcut.

This was cool. Some fun, outside the box, thinking.

Hello Dave!! Really good solutions! I'm current playing with other gear, but I have a Digitakt!
And sometimes I play a bit with it! What should I say about the amazing style you create! Its in the best of ever area and sounds amazing! I saw your DB4tricks, and the Digitakt to hear from you was outstanding!
It took a long time, but now I also found my sounds and I'm glad!
Really good tutorials, knowledge and music!

[FerArlandis]

Awesome as always! Would love to see you do your thing building a song on the digitakt in a live stream!

[aijii]

Talk about squeezing blood from stone. What a machine! (The producer, not the sampler). Good stuff.

[slome]

dammit that groove slays. would love to see how you got that going

[grandmasterjo]

Clever 😄😄.
What’s your favourite Elektron Box ?

[JC-bfzm]

I wish I could buy you a beer; cheers, Mr. Mech.

[StefanoPiseddu]

Hi Dave, congratulations on what you do, you are really good. Would you tell me what you do the synth part of these samples with? Libraries or sounds that you create and then import? And if you do them with what do you do them? Thanks again
