I’ve just tried on my Octatrack , it’s so cool! I’ve kind of mixed your two methods: sliced my vocal sample in 16 slices, sequenced the slices I want to have the sounds trigged at the right moment, quantized to the beat and then I use the cross fader with scene B that put the rate at -64 and hp + lp filter. I have a similar scene but with the start point (which is the slice number in slice mode) linked to slice 16 so it can change the words in the sentence. Or I can use a lfo to randomize the slice number at every trig (or just on one trig in my sentence thanks to parameter lock). One thing important I’ve noticed: it works with Static Machines but it’s far smoother and you’ll get better results with a Flex Machine.

That's a really nice way to approach it! I actually didn't try it with a flex track, I tend to ignore flex tracks 🙈, but that does make sense. I think I'll go try it in a minute! 😎

It took me 3-months to understand how you did this-esp. method #1 (that's what I was looking to do). I have studied this video to see what you were doing so many times (like a sht-ton)but you are soooo fcn fast lol (not your fault that you are amazing at this). Well ....I can finally say I understand the scratching methods -yay.yay me! Keep making awesome content and thx for showing me how to do this

@@tinygregmusic Man!!! Your Octatrack videos are top notch! They are super refreshing. Very original and you talk about and show things that I haven’t seen in any other vids on KZitem. Well done! I would love to see a video on how you creatively transition using scenes / patterns to break out of the dreaded 4 bar loop. What is your thought process regarding this? It would be cool to see a walkthrough of how you would approach constructing a full track on the Octatrack. Do you have tried and true techniques that help you when building specific sections of a song to be played live? Etc. etc. etc. Again. Super good stuff!

You're right it's called a lock trig. A trigless trig is the same but it triggers the lfo and fx envelopes. The recording trigs are called one shot trigs. I wish they had better or more memorable names tbh... I'll never remember them all in time for the next video though 🤣

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! That means a lot to me! Yes, scratching with the crossfader is just not the same... I'm probably not as good at scratching vinyl as you are but I've had some practise, but I miss the ability to just spin the vinyl and have it wind round and then pick up from wherever it lands. You can't do that with three Octatrack! But it is amazing how much other stuff we can do with just one little crossfader and some preparation! Please lookout for my next lot of videos coming this weekend
