    Another tour de force of humor, clarity in teaching, and demonstration of your sound design capabilities and musical expertise (that outro is lovely). Elektron's sending you the Digitone is paying them dividends I am sure. I hope you know how much we are all rooting for you...it's odd as a consumer to feel emotionally connected to creators like yourself, but creepily those of you who follow you can't help but feel like you're our friend, and so we do genuinely empathize with your pain. When you're in that trap, I know it can feel impossible to get out, and literally nothing anyone says can change that feeling, but maybe our collective caring for you can be some small comfort at least. Hang in there good sir, and we'll continue to enjoy anything you share with us.

    Jeremy I absolutely FUcking love the sounds that your ears find pleasing (in general),but especially through the lens of an fm synth sequencer such as the digitone, which I am now highly interested in. Keep up the good work dude don’t let your head get you down. You make the good music!

    I love you man. If it wasn’t for you i wouldn’t have gotten into making music again. You opened up a new world for me in 2017 with those OP-1 videos... I’ve spent far too much on gear since but I can’t thank you enough. My thoughts are with you. Hope everything starts coming up Milhouse for you soon.

    I've found combos of the right lfos where if you set the amp env release to infinity and play a chord, it will make the most beautiful always evolving Eno-like ambient music on its own forever. Truly an amazing instrument.

    Good to see you finally getting the digitone out:) bought one last year and I love it. Best synth I own. Not sure about it’s therapeutic value though. More want to tear my hair because that great sound I made suddenly goes to crap because I’ve tweaked the wrong thing while messing around and I never remember to save. Grr.

    I'm late to your channel, been a lurker for some time. But it's been a real inspiration to me. As long time "traditional" guitar muso and what have you type, your music has really turned me on to electronic noises and synths. I can see the dreaded black dog follows you about! So from one fellow sufferer to another, thank you for what you do. From a random English guy living in Bulgaria🇧🇬

    BTW, your therapy is awesome (it's also my therapy). Keep up the #Digitone coverage. It's my favorite sythn-strument from the past few years, and I feel, a bit under-represented on the CZcams. Keep uncovering the know-how to producing great sounds.

  • @robertsyrett1992
    @robertsyrett1992 Před 5 lety +2

    I love it! The digitone is getting more amazing with time.
    edit: sorry to hear your life is in shambles. The Digitakt is certainly a therapeutic device for me, and I'm warming up to the digitone. There are definitely more synth parameters that can be p-locked on the Digitone. I would actually love to see a further exploration of using p-locks rather than just swapping presets.

    Digitone sounds like the subtleties and sweet spots of Novation Circuit wave table synths but with hands on access to the dynamics, instead of those enigmatic 8 Circuit encoders which are never the same function.

    You get lost in sound design when you're using your Access Virus? Is it something you still use? I know it's pretty old by now, but it still seems unsurpassed in its field, so I've been pondering whether to pick one up for "bread and butter" synth purposes. Would love to hear your thoughts about it in more detail.
