tokn Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) the electribe er-1 is so much fun and pretty versatile. harsh clark-y hihats, punchy bds. no single outs, so i use left/right as dry/wet, running through a cheap guitar fx unit and sometimes the microbrutes filter. good that it has two inputs, otherwise i couldnt use all my gear because i dont have a proper mixer. the slice function on the audio ins is great for basslines. only thing i hate is that you cant proper use the pitch knob to like the same three settings. it's way to tiny to play real notes and triggering it via midi (which is a mess anyway because of very weird way the electribe voices are to adress) only gives 0-127 over the pitch range, so it's dissonant. anyone using the er-1 or es-1... ? is it possible to proper pitch the samples? what are your secrets?

I have an ES-1. It doesn't do chromatic sampling but it is GREAT as a sampling drum machine. Nice amount of grit but you can get very deep/bassy tones if you know how to work it. Of course it all depends on the source material too though.

awepittance Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 really nice job on the casing, so its a digital drum synthesizer then? The screen is very reminiscent of that same OLED screen i see on a lot of good quality DIY kit stuff, i love those screens. I think its the same one they have on the midi alf and most of the midibox stuff Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide awepittance's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/74220-hardware-drum-machine-thread/page/6/#findComment-2318043 Share on other sites More sharing options...

awepittance Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) wow that sounds very nice. For a digital synth engine those noise parts sound pretty nice. very different sound than other digital drum stuff coming out recently. Does it have some kind of roll/stutter function on it? some of those kick drums at the end sound very FM Edited May 2, 2015 by John Ehrlichman Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide awepittance's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/74220-hardware-drum-machine-thread/page/6/#findComment-2318079 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kausto Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Yeah it has roll with tweakable rate. It has different synth engines for different instruments. Most of them have 2 or 3 ops fm (Snare doesn't though). You can mix hardcoded sampled transients (these parameters called Clicks). Also you can morph between kits. It has maximum pattern length of 16 steps but you can chain patterns.

modey Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 ooh, looks like it's pretty cheap too. I was thinking of getting a machinedrum to go with the monomachine but I might aim for one of those instead!

Guest skibby Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I just ordered a Sonic Potions LXR, mad props for the tip Telefunken.Will be using the experience for research purposes since I'm building a specification list for my own design and there's some knowledge gaps. Getting some wikid ideas for a same but different approach. Intending to get into the source code as well.

I kinda feel like it beats the machinedrum in terms of just the timbres it produces. Richard DEvine has been using one a lot for live shows recently.

sweepstakes Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Yeah Nord Drum 2 up there on my lust list. Sounds great, UI looks good, and it has a cute form factor. Plus I believe you can trigger it with audio so you can avoid MIDI jitter.

MisterE Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 wow that lxr looks fuckin niiiice. visually, and the description of the engine seems pretty cool too. seems very flexible/tweakable. the demos sound nice too. a digital sound but not a bad digital sound. price does look pretty cheap for how much of a serious piece of hardware it looks.

kcinsu Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) I can unequivocally say that the Nord Drum 2 is my favorite drum synth. Such a range of amazing sounds. The best combo is to sequence it with the Machine Drum, doing MIDI CC plocks. Seriously can't reccomend it enough. My only complaint is that it is only stereo outs... Would love individual outputs.

Would love individual outputs. and you have a machinedrum and a G2 right? or i remember you making some of the best drum synth sounds i'd ever heard on a nord a few years ago. your statements increase my gear lust the ipad app seems pretty useful as well, do you use that often? I'm curious how bendable the drum synth engine voices are compared to the machinedrum. It really wouldn't need to be that configurable, nothing else really is in terms of just individual drum voices Edited May 4, 2015 by John Ehrlichman Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide awepittance's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/74220-hardware-drum-machine-thread/page/6/#findComment-2318662 Share on other sites More sharing options...
