      If I switch to mono playback on my PC it totally breaks the audio. Otherwise, it just sounds a bit strange.

    Solid demo as always, great selection of questions, love the AI clip art, realizing you are a big big big Toro y Moi fan after watching older videos + this one back to back. On a separate note, I need a keyboard rack like that. Edit: also the sound is fine, and I am glad you are testing for ______.

    The Perkons definitely feels like one of those machines that it’s designed explicitly for the type of person who’s gonna buy one of these. Not everyone is meant to be the target market for this machine and that’s okay. But for the people who it is meant for…they are gonna love it. Also, it sounds brilliant.

      I wonder if its more of a speakers vs headphones thing, or I just have a high tolerance for it but listening on larger headphones at the moment and I don't find it off? Unless J fixed it :)
      EDIT: I'm just at the walkthrough sections though, not the demos later on.

      Yes it is. Noticed right away. AAAAND it completely disappears if you‘re listening in mono. I suppose a re-up will be happening, otherwise all those people listening on their phone speakers will complain about the Perkons being really quiet 😂

    Come for the demo, stay for the social engineering how-to.
    I confess - I got one of the first available at patchwerks. I will probably never use it to make a track, but it is so much damned fun. The immediacy and performability is what you are buying, and nothing else really compares there.

    My heart exploded with joy, German kittens, and rainbows when you mentioned the Notwist. One question… as an elektron digitakt / syntakt guy, did you find that this sat in too similar a zipcode to consider?

  • @LaymensLament
    @LaymensLament Před rokem +3

    i get strong "this would have been used in early hiphop" vibes. even tho its a piece of techno kit, I think you could get this into different genres. its just a nice drum machine. edit: ah damn you mentioned hiphop in QNA, yeah i heard a bunch of useable kicks for hh and that smacky snare was basically straight out of the hh rulebook.

  • @fray3dendsofsanity
    @fray3dendsofsanity Před rokem +2

    From a tonal perspective, I prefer it to the Rytm. The Rytm may have more capabilities, especially when you factor in sampling, but I like the simplicity of the Perkons. Some of the drum voices on the Rytm are just straight up not good sounding, but I dig all the algorithms on this thing. Highly considering switching my AR MKII out for it.

    Interesting that you didnt cover the odds function! For me that was one of the most attractive features BUT it isnt super useful in its current implementation since the 1/x odds activates the trigger on the first pass. The manual says "with odds 1/2 the relevant step will be played EVERY SECOND TIME the sequencer is activating the step" which is not actually how it works. Erica synths says its the manual that is wrong lol anyway I am really disappointed by this and hope they change it to how it should be.
    One fun thing is you can do a control all type of thing by holding shift and turning a parameter knob, and if you let go of shift it reverts back to what it was before. I just found out if you want to keep the changes press rec before releasing shift!
