Elektron's Octatrack is one of the most widely used hardware sample/sequencer, both on stage and in the studio. Combine it with the 8-voice FM synth Digitone and you get unlimited sonic possibilities. In this course, Elektron expert Thavius Beck reveals how to get the most out of these two units by operating them in tandem!

Thavius starts the course by teaching how to connect both machines and properly configure the MIDI and Audio settings to make sure everything works flawlessly. From there, you learn how to sequence your Digitone from your Octatrack, how to mix and match both sequencers, and how to sample your Digitone for sonic experimentation.

Next, Thavius demonstrates how to creatively rearrange the recorded audio with Record Trigs... all in real time! He also reveals tips about using the arpeggiator, resampling FX, creating fills & rolls with Retrigs, how to make an arrangement, and a lot more...

So join producer and trainer Thavius Beck in this course, and get ready to generate some serious "Elektric" sparks by combining the power of Elektron's Octatrack and Digitone!
