Saying that you work there is enough for me. I would say, "Speak your mind," as long as you're allowed to speak your mind. There is value in what you say, and it should be implied that there is at least some bias.

I can't remember what brought me to your channel originally, probably pocket operator vids? That was years ago. I've never even seen 99% of the gear you use in real life and likely never will. I've stayed for your teaching style, jams, and mostly just the positive attitude; it's contagious! All of it! 🎼🎶🖤

Defo a weirdo but we love ya 😂

mate u need to set chanells on off while recording audio or midi and thats will make recording always perfect

I can see your points. On the other hand, you make a good video and if you made one I'd be glad to see it.

TotalMix is in every way superior than UAD Console. The new Room EQ is awesome (no more Sonarworks). The only con is headphone amp is much quieter than on Apollo interfaces.

You do you! That's why I'm here.

Clickbait works

Hey, it would be nice if Elektron didn't also forget about MK1 users. I understand the technical limitations, but a few workflow-improving features would be useful. I'm still looking forward to the possibility of saving kits including samples! 😭 Greetings from afar and a nice video.

Good on you, Ricky. TBH I’m not sure the world needs another unboxing vid anyway. I’d much rather just see you being you and doing your thing with the new box. I’ve learned a lot from you over the years.

Unfortunately, when using USB audio, I hear audio from both the DAW and the device itself. The sound is doubled. It is unclear how to leave only the sound that comes from USB (DAW). Without this setting, multitrack recording doesn't make much sense.

Would love to hear your inside insight. So what if you're biased?? What's with the eggshells? :) Just do what you want! :) Love you too! :)

Well said Ricky... done with integrity, which is the most important thing one can have

Now we need a banging track Made with it 😀

Weirdo !

Thanks for your honesty. I can't wait to see (and hear) what comes out of it in your studio. BTW, I have the Digi1 since it's release so we share the same box "type"... I miss that packaging... haha I guess Elektron needed to cut costs somewhere (I'm glad it was on the packaging and not the on devices !!). Anyway thanks again. Keep it up, you're truly an inspiration. Cheers mate.

Just implement it in your future videos

that's what we've come to expect from you Ricky, chill'ntegrity! also, looking forward to the 50 times resampling video with the new unit now!

First time ever I write a comment on a video... but: "Maybe I'm just a weirdo". Dude... you're GENUINE. Does that makes someone a weirdo, I think not ;-) Thanks for doing what you do, it is a true refreshment on CZcams!

The latest gear reviews are interesting but I do appreciate synth you-tubers that use and produce vids of the gear they have instead of jumping on the latest review bandwagon, like the always awesome vids of Jexus

Do your thing Ricky, and let's see what it does. Respect

I normally have a pretty strong opinion about the merky waters of synthubers (hard- and software). Here I would want to see you do a overview/deepdive becáuse you work there and know there product already very well. Plus there is no weird connection where they don't pay you, but do send you free stuff so is that not payment etc. You work there, so you do get paid. Just not for the video.

Ah yes, the "I'm not doing a Digitakt II review video" Digitakt II review video. Dammit, I see what you did there.

I would like if you did a thorough review of the digitek 2. I am not much interested in Digitek; I don’t have one. But I have many other samplers. I could be wrong but to me it seems like way too much menu diving; I prefer as close to knob per function as possible.

I am still so pissed that I bought a mkI digitakt in february with no idea that the update was coming

ricky, ricky bo-bicky banana-fana fo-ficky!! you make whatever moves you, dude!! (but I know damn well you're gonna get all kinds of insightful on some music-making with that digitakt 2 up front & center. mmm hmm...)

Your channel is the biggest reason I got my DT last year. When I read about DT2, one of my first thoughts was “I wonder what Ricky Tinez will think?” I’m eager to hear what you do with it. Thanks for being awesome!

If you're an independent contractor but you're there every day, they're getting away with not giving you health insurance?

I would still love to get your take on it...

Fair? We're not playing a video game here brother lol. One of the things I love about your channel is getting to learn things from you as a reliable source of information. (someone who knows exactly what the gear does). Thanks for being awesome bro

I think that because of your experience, you are one of the ONLY qualified people to do a review/update video for the Digitakt2! You and Loopop are always trusted sources🙏🏻

Integrity earns more respect than sales. Well done. 👍 ...Weirdo 🤪

"If the software has beat/sample sync like Serato, then I may consider purchasing it."

Why I won't talk about "engagement".

Now they will raise the price 200 dollars 😂 I kid.

Respect 👊❤✌

You solve it by tracking in pro tools.

I have a lot of questions, first of all how dare you! 😘

To be honest, I watch your videos because the MUSIC you make in them inspires me. Looking forward to see you make tracks with the II as well.

It would be great to have your opinion on all the upgrades tho... I have only come close to buying the OG Digitakt because of your House beats lol

It’s very refreshing for a content creator to stop and ponder if they should do something even if it seems like easy traffic for you. With that said, it would not have bothered me one bit had you done a typical review. I’m sure there’d be haters calling bias, but there’s always gonna be haters no matter what. But like you said, there’s plenty of people doing that. I like those videos for the procedural aspect, but your videos are more like field exercises and are equally helpful. I look forward to seeing what you do with it.

Just looking forward to you jamming out on the thing in a future video! Tutorials smootorials; I'm just here for good vibes and good music.

It's full disclosure and ethical behavior. It's cool that you think about fairness and others. It shows a lot about character.

Cheers for the vid and I totally get your choice makes perfect sense. Your fellow chaps have it covered just keep doing your thing. That's why I come here

Rickie did I miss hear you, did you say you're letting go of your Octatrack?

I picked out the MPC right away, thought it sounded way muddier

It’s not overblown. A review would be completely biased and potentially misleading. Props.

Raise all boats

I’m sick of all the day one reviews and this is the only one I’ve given a thumbs up

Respect
