Dawless improvisation with one Elektron Digitone and the Modal Electronics Cobalt 8x + Line 6 DL4 MK2 &amp; NDR-5 Atlantic.
- 
I use the Cobalt 8x freely; it isn&#039;t synced at all.
I play a sustained bass arpeggio that goes into the DL4 MK2 (green pedal, big footswitches), which applies a Vintage Analog Delay; then it goes into the Atlantic (black pedal, red knobs), which applies a &#039;60s-style analog delay with long, highly musical, harmonic feedback. I set this delay&#039;s Tap Tempo right when I activate it. Then, I take the audio signal from the Cobalt 8 (via the Atlantic) into the Digitone&#039;s input, apply Elektron reverb, and that&#039;s it—no extra delay or chorus added to the signal coming from my Cobalt-and-pedals chain.
The Digitone sends MIDI sync to the DL4 MK2 multi-effects unit to lock that Vintage Analog Delay to the tempo—resulting in more effective, harmonious feedback for the next pedal in the chain, the NDR-5 Atlantic—but it doesn&#039;t sync the Cobalt 8, which isn&#039;t sequenced anyway.
So, I start the Digitone&#039;s sequencer for the bassline right on the beat—by ear!
It’s not perfect; it’s not robotically locked to a master clock, but it’s more than enough to stay in time long enough to record the track!
(right at the very end, the bass starts to drift slightly out of sync...)
As always, it’s a DAWless jam—improvised and played/recorded in a single take: &quot;Action... and cut! That&#039;s the one, we&#039;re keeping it&quot;—that&#039;s how I use my gear! ;))

It’s a 142 BPM Tekno track—progressive and quite &quot;mental&quot; in style—that even veers into something close to Industrial Tekno Tribe halfway through... but I prefer to think of it as Mental Tekno, okay?

ENJOY THE TRIP]]></description>
