Donkey Kong Country - Aquatic Ambience - Studio remake/cover
As a fan of this piece of music, I thought it would be fun to recreate the music in my studio. I use a mixture of hardware and software. The Digitakt is providing drums and backing ambient synths. Minilogue xd handles the lead harmonica sound. Studio one provides extra layers and structure.

Can you connect a guitar straight into it?
Omg, is it really!! X nice work dude
Super helpful!
5:36 sounds exactly like Animal Crossing.
Looks good, only downside that I can notice is inability to control & select the wav files you loaded.
Yeah that's right, you can only use the last one added, would be nice to be able to select. There are other loopers that can do this for more 💰
Ինչ աիժե
Thank you.I haven't used it in a long time and I just might start again
The Digitakt was driving me a bit mad. This tutorial has saved me. Thank you for such a concise explanation.
What about the sticky key issues? how do you deal with that?.... STIKITAT!
Not had that problem myself, but I guess give it a clean
Really complicated put me off buying one
Excellent explanation of basics, thanks for the vid!
How can I use that to make similar music to provoker?
thanks for this tutorial ......I highly recommend making the mod for the snare drum to the beats ,makes a big difference to the decay of snare, making it sound so much better
I’m a brand new Volca Drum owner and I found this tutorial to be one of the very best. However, after putting together a sequence and utilizing all of editing tools, I cannot get the program to save, even when following the steps at about 18:20 of the video. When I load the program to play back, it reverts back to how it sounded before my edits. What step am I missing? I want to be able to save and come back to it sometime later for more editing.
You have to save both the kit and the prg (pattern) for it to sound the same
Great video, thank you!
Thanks🎉
So helpful to get an overview like this. Cheers!
solid straightfoward video, but why is it every synth/ drum machine tutorial is accompanied by the longest gangliest fingernails, i know its been 4 years but trim those mfs
Great tutorial! Thanks a lot!
1) can you save patterns? i'd like to have different patterns saved for different songs for live 2) is the midi in something that could be used to trigger when to start playing a pattern via a keyboard?
Yes to both
Yes to both
Quite late here but I've purchased a Digitakt 2 and found your quick-start very helpful. It's currently tougher to find content on the Digitakt 2 that is similarly foundational but I can work out the differences. These points are perfectly simple to help me begin making something that I can work from. I'm new to your channel and will now check out what else you've uploaded. Being originally most comfortable with guitar, I'd like to see how I can work with both of these instruments together. Thank you for taking the time to share. /cheers
It's a pretty rad little piece of hardware for not much money.
Why can’t I hear the Digitakt? Just your voice and clicking.
Perfect intro! Not too much- and not too less information. 10/10! *subscribed Thank you!
Simon! my god, i was about to sell all my Volca's as i was making so much unlistenable rubbish, but came across your tutorials and have learnt more in one afternoon than in the whole 10 years i;ve had the Sample, FM & Bass! you're a genius mate! seriously! but at least the world will blame YOU for making me make more 'music'! thanx again! Timx
Amazing
Super tutorial! 👍🏼 Thanks! 🙏🏼
are older volca beats usually lower in volume?
thanks m8 super helpful, perfect vid.
Can you midi that drum machine to PSR SX900 Yamaha to use its beats for Yamaha...pls
Nice tutorial thanks !!
Haha one of my favorite tswift songs, nice
Hi. Thanks for the video. Where did you get the fender Rhodes sounds? I can’t find them in the factory sounds. Did you import them?
Yes I did
Man thus video is so awesome! Props man
JUKKEEEEE
Thanks for the introduction!
HI - Can you do a Volca Keys tutorial?
Don't own one
Great tutorial...to the point!
Brilliant tutorial and grateful thankful
That was helpful. A couple of functions I didn't know as I bought mine 2nd hand and it didn't include the card..also to lazy to look it up online. Good tutorial. This is my 4th volca ..love the series. subbed
Thanks for the good review. Concise and covered everything. Cheers!
Fantastic, simple start video thank you!
Brilliant video ✌️
Your video was presented at EXACTLY the right level of detail. I'd like to request a similar video that focuses on using the Digitakt with a computer to manage samples/projects, and also recording into DAWs.
Does it have filters?
Hi Simon! loved this jam, and the combo. I found your video because I was searching a solution for my solo project. I´m currently using a drum machine and guitar, it´s a Roland TR8, and looping with Boss RC3; but the looping gets difficult so I was looking for a looper that allows using a drum machine. Would you recommend using the Ditto X4 in my setup? thank you in advance!!
Ditto is ok but I had problems syncing with my digitakt. It seems to work ok with my computer midi sync. Read the comments in my ditto tutorial as others have had problems it seems
Really nice video
What’s the name of that kick at 2:22
The sample upload took me back to the tape loader days of the Speccy.🙂
Managed to get a Gen 1 version for the Pajen firmware mods, so this tutorial was very informative and straight to the point, thanks.
