I used to record drum machines such as TR606, playing at high speed and pitch, onto reel-to-reel tape at 15 ips, then play back at 7.5 ips and the effect was very cool - dark, deep, heavy. You learn to shorten the decays on all of your sounds at high speed, so that when they're played back, you get punchy sounds without too much smearing between drums. Plus you get great tape saturation.

Using a 606 and reel-to-reel is awesome old-school stuff. I wish tape wasn't so freaking expensive these days. Great quality stuff that has real character.

Boards of Canada have mentioned they use this process with the internal mic of a cassette tape deck, particulary on Geogaddi. They compared the process to when you look at an image reflected within two mirrors forever, in the distance it gets darker and greener and murkier..

@MomoTheBellyDancer i agree, Ricky's example most definately becomes smaller, maybe thats the result with digital. Analog tape on the other hand adds noise and flutter with every pass, hence darker tone.

@baqcasanke

MomoTheBellyDancer yea it does. Try it. Mirrors have green tint that grows with each reflection because the glass and silver mirror slightly reflect a little more green than other colors. The image does get darker also because lux diminishes with each pass thru the glass, glass is not 100% clear

For clarity, regular float glass has a green tint, low iron glass does not. So it depends on the glass used in the mirror.

Bro, I love that you include your entire creative process in all your videos. All the happy accidents that every producer experiences messing with sounds & gear. Keep up the great work!

Really great video, nice trick! I'd just like to point out that I believe the signal degredation is not because of DA/AD at the resampling stage as that most likely happens digitally inside the box. It's all down to the SRC (sample rate conversion) used to speed up and slow down audio inside the digitakt. Everytime you complete one of those cycles it will have less and less information to work with to turn the loop back into its original tempo because it has to "throw away" some samples to speed up the sound while keeping the sampling rate at 48K (which the DT is running internally). Sorry if my explanation is a bit unclear, I don't know all the technical details but I've experimented a lot with SRC vari-speed type resampling inside DAWs. Excited to try it in the DT now!

This is your best Digitakt video and my favorite by far!! 🙌🏽 Decided to finally get a Digitakt thanks to your videos ! Can't wait to use this technique 🔥🔥

Ah yeahhh it’s great to see some fresh Digitakt material! You’re the man, man.

this channel is so nice! Cool content, nice color grading, awesome gear and very refreshing to see a youtuber that doesn't put on an over the top personality for the camera! Subscribed.

Love this! I am always really fascinated by things which make audio quality decay, resampling, destruction loops, hell just detune and parameter shift or granular filters. I love how this sounds, and honestly the more and more videos you share with the digitakt the more I've been looking into getting one

Love the experimenting and thank you for taking us on the journey. You tamed that sample! Good show and enough camera angles to add to the coolness.

I love what you did with that sample. Great video. The more videos I see of the Digitakt the more I feel like I need one in my life!

Thanks for the new workflow ideas! Looks like you were having fun!

And that is how us old school dudes got tons of samples on old hardware samplers and on floppy disks. And for drummers do this with the Alesis strike pro multi sample import but obviously just one resample for best quality And really 1 octave makes a huge difference in sample size

absolutely in love with your videos man, keep up the good work!

Thanks for the vid ricky, smooth as always. Stay healthy man

@RickyTinez love your style! You have a great way of bringing the watcher into what you're doing. Kudos to you sir.

20:43 - SUPER dope 1 bar loop! Just a little flutter. I’m spending alot of time watching your channel while I wait for my model samples and MPC one to arrive.

Thank you for still doing Digitakt videos. Much appreciated.

Cheers for documenting your experimentation Mr. T, and for bit head-bobbing weirdnessess. 🌿

outstanding stuff, Tinez. you're a 21st century gem.

This technique is so Board of Canada, but on a DT. Incredible. You're the GOAT, Ricky!

When you use the internal resampling feature of the Digitakt your sample won't leave the digital domain. So essentially you are doing exactly the same as in a DAW (just number crunching). If you really want to explore the hardware side itself you'll need at least resample by connecting the analog outputs to the inputs to involve a D/A and A/D step each time.

The last 3min of this video are pure Tinez gold. Love you, man.

Love that experimental vibe here ✌️ Keep it up man

Man this was dope! MKBHD did something similar but for video but he uploaded videos to KZread and downloaded then reuploaded a few hundred times! Again, excellent video my dude!

That was so hot Rickey! Love all your videos, but this one was really great. I guess for this purpose, the worse the time stretching algorithms are on the device you're using the better.

the cool part about this is that it thins out the sound and makes it take up less space in a mix. there's a really great artist called thedaydreamsound on youtube, and he exclusively uses vintage samplers to make his music, and he'll use low sample rates as a mixing technique to let it sit back in a mix better, as well as picking each sampler for elements in the track based on their EQ signature instead of doing a bunch of EQing in post. hes a great source of knowledge

Loved the end when you said ‘dude’, I get the same excitement making a cool MPC beat now and then too!! ✌️

This was dope! Great to see u gave the DT a spin again!

I love your videos! They really got me back into producing for the fun of it and not focusing too much on what other people think about it. It would be dope if you could walk us through your setup for recording videos, i.e. camera placement, audio setup, etc. Keep up the great work!

Dope video and even doper jam!

Nice little experiment. It's always fun to crunch samples.

This is awesome man! Im about to order a digitakt, cant wait to try this!

I love this video because I like using as little gear or plug-ins as possible. Just using the device in a way maybe someone didn't intend and getting a fun result. Thank You!

friggin Sick Dude!

I loved what you did with the LFO. Really took it from lo-fi hip hop to psychedelic quick.

This is the old sampler pitch-up technique, ala SP1200, used to maximize sample time when space was an issue. Nice to hear it expanded.

First of all, I really appreciate these videos. I bought a Digitakt about a year ago and I always return to your channel for some refreshers. I know you probably aren't looking for requests, but a two things that not many people cover on youtube are: controlling multiple instruments at the same time with the Digitakt midi out; and Digitakt + SP-404sx workflow/jams. Would love to see your take on those topics! Thanks for the knowledge!

This is really sick. Thanks for sharing this tip.

Nice video. In Abelton, you can keep stretching sounds back and forth, resampling them over and over again using a different 'warp algorithm' each time and you get all sorts of cool textural and granular stuff going on. Heaps of fun.

I dig it riky

Whow, what a great idea : D

Sweet, gotta try this with my deluge

My BOSS SP505 not only has a ton of options and fun to be had with resampling, but it also does the auto-save thing so you can just turn it off anytime and not lose anything.

Love this video! I do this alot with the octatrack and running things out of cue to mutable instruments clouds and back in. Sometimes we try to expand horizontally too much, more gear more parts more sections. Instead of vertically. Where you can take 1 sample 1 piece of hw and still have a large palette

I’m subscribed for this content

love this wideo

Dope!! Nothing like finding a way to add some good crunch without external gear! My homie had shown me a technique similar to this a little while ago and it got really good results really fast. What you do is pitch the sample up and resample, and then instead of slowing down and resampling, you pitch the sample up again and resample. So you start off pitching up 12 semitones, then you resample and pitch to 24 semitones, then resample and pitch to 36, etc. after you’ve pitched up several times, I’ve found 36/48 semitones to be the best, pitch the sample back down and resample repeat until you have the original pitch, by then your sample should be CRUSHED. And it’ll work in 6-8 resamples instead of 10. I haven’t tried it on a digitakt but on the MPC1K it destroyed my samples. Hope that helps! 🙏🏼

genioooo
