Dirtywave M8 SCALE MODE - Tutorial #4

One of the interesting features of the Dirtywave M8 that is really useful for making music and coming up with tuneful melodies (even if you have zero music theory whatsoever) is the SCALE mode, which is essentially a quantiser, but with all the power you would want and expect from a tracker. It's something that was a relatively recent addition, so I go over what it does and how it works in this video, so you can whet your whistle while you wait on your pre-order to arrive. I sometimes sell hand dyed custom keycaps for the M8 from my shop: http://shop.allmyfriendsaresynths.com If you are interested in song files for the M8 to see how exactly I make my songs in practice, these are posted to my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/allmyfriendsaresynths -- I post all of the music I make, including WAV stems; sample packs; Dirtywave M8 song bundles; collections of video textures; early access to videos; and a whole pile of other stuff on Patreon. I know I know, I hate doing this as well, but if you like what I do and want to get more of it, while also helping me offset some of my ludicrous gear purchases, this is the best place to do it: https://www.patreon.com/allmyfriendsaresynths If you just want to hang out and chat with me or other (nice) folks, drop by the Discord: https://discord.gg/7Q68pUKHAq If you just want individual sample packs or downloads of video footage to use in your own projects, get them on Gumroad here: https://gumroad.com/allmyfriends If you're in the market for new gear, my favourite place to find new and interesting synthesizers and other electronic music gear is Signal Sounds. They are based in Glasgow, but ship all over the place and often have stuff nobody else does. Find them at https://www.signalsounds.com/ If you're in the US and shop at Perfect Circuit, you can click through to see what they have in stock just now through my custom link. I get a small commission for any purchases made, which keeps me stocked up with whisky and beard oil. https://link.perfectcircuit.com/t/v1/8-12626-263232-9759?website=371439 and a whole pile of other stuff...
