The Dirtywave M8 tracker is a nearly flawless device, but that doesn't mean the user experience couldn't be improved. Electronics create noise, MIDI adapters use multiple dongle types, and controlling the M8 Tracker could be a bit more performative. In this video, I will share solutions to these problems. Keep in mind this is all useful information for anyone who is making music with hardware, these tools are universally good.

Hi mathew what are you going to do when they drop a new style octatrack considering your main goal in here is octatrack related and being the age of it and the digitakt 2 out with different style operating system I feel somethings going to happen just from the sales of the octatrack mk2 the last 2 which were virtually brand new the black editions sold on eBay for £700 all the big models people are selling so I don’t think I’m alone in that thought

I hope they drop a new Octatrack, that would be amazing. I still see a lot of people buying them regularly, used prices I’ve seen are all over $1,100. They aren’t going to replace it with anything that is not another Octatrack. When they do release one, I am going to do exactly what I am doing now, and try to learn everything I can about it then use it to play live shows!

Nice video! I absolutely love my m8 and recently just picked up OT mk2 which I’m just starting to get the hang of. Wondering if you have plans to do a video/tutorial on how you combine the two? Also looks like OMX-27 is sold out everywhere - any plug on where we can purchase?

I wish I could help with that. I think if you email denki oto than he may alert you to when they will be available again. It comes in random batches. Yes I do plan on doing videos on how to integrate the two! <3

Noice - thanks!
