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.

      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 💰

    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.

    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

    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!!
