Hey team, I'm thinking about making some changes to the 5£ tier. I will soon run out of knowledge to share in the Technical Notes and I don't want to get into some weird topics that could be irrelevant to some of you. As a replacement I could do a video breakdown of one of the recent jams. Each month I would simply explain how everything is wired and what each machines does in that specific jam. Hopefully I will also be able to demonstrate some concepts I talked about in the Technical Notes. The videos would probably be around 3-4 minutes long.

This is just an idea but I get this kind of content requested a lot on Youtube so I thought maybe you guys might be interested as well. Anyway you get to choose with this poll. Do you want to stick with the Technical Notes? Are you happy with video breakdowns instead? Do you maybe want a blend of both? If we do both I will probably decide each month which one I think is the most interesting.

The poll will be up until next Friday. Either way, the change will only happen next month so there will be a Technical Note for August. Anyway have a lovely week everyone<3

Hey Aldo, I'm a guitarist and I have some of the same gear that you do but I don't really know how to use it. I would definitely move up a tier, that's no problem. I'd love to get some insight into how to use the digitakt and do live looping. It would be very cool if you did some video breakdowns and talk about connections and maybe even get into some of the midi aspects. Your technical notes are excellent, btw. Thanks man! Keep up the great work!

Hey Joao, thanks for the kind word. Those videos would definitely be available in the 5£ tier so no need to move up in your case. :) I will talk about all those things in the videos, that's for sure. What I imagine right now is basically a quick description of the whole setup then during each video I would take a closer look at some elements (the guitar looping, the drums, the synths, the effects) depending on what I think is the most relevant in that specific jam. I will obviously listen to everyone's feedback after each video so that every question gets an answer on the long run. :)

I'm sure the videos will be great! Looking forward to it
