Dirtywave M8 Tutorial #3: Live Mode

The third video in my series of tutorials for the Dirtywave M8 looks at Live Mode. What is it? How does it work? What are the shortcuts? What if I never want to play live anyway? Why does nobody come to my gigs? All of these questions (and more) answered in this 15 minute journey of discovery. Time stamps are below for easy reference: 00:00 Intro 00:40 What is Live Mode? 01:29 Playing 03:04 Stopping 03:29 Quantisation 05:36 Song Structure & Loops 07:45 Other Commands 10:14 Live Mode & Song Composition 11:21 Polyrhythms 13:38 Summary & Outro 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 -- Get access to all my sample packs, music, and other exclusive stuff: https://www.patreon.com/allmyfriendsaresynths Download individual sample packs here: https://gumroad.com/allmyfriends Find me on Instagram: http://instagram.com/allmyfriendsaresynths My blog with music and write ups: http://unexpectedbowtie.com My DIY tape label, Cow Tongue Taco Records: https://cowtonguetacorecords.bandcamp.com/ 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.

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...
