Ultimate Octatrack Template 2 Free Flex 1.1.6 (Patreon)

This NEW template is essentially the same as the Ultimate Octatrack FX Template, with the loopers replaced by tracks designed for sampling and sample playback. Additionally, 8 new FX have been added, and each part now has 2 open slots for sample scenes. Thank you for the support!

Ultimate Octatrack FX Template 2FF x.x Manual by EZBOT

All Banks and Patterns are populated with the DJ Effects Template at a default tempo of 120 BPM and a pattern sale of 64 steps (4 bars).

***Clicks and pops can be caused by unstable BPM from external clocking sources. To avoid this use a stable clocking source such as the Octatrack itself.

***Audio MIDI Channels are disabled by default.

- Effects with an asterisk have FREEZE delays.

- "ALL" refers to effects that affect the entire mix with the same effect on both inputs A/B and C/D.

TO ADD YOUR OWN SAMPLES AND PROCESS THEM THROUGH THE TEMPLATE: Tracks 4 and 8 are FLEX tracks with recording buffers assigned to them. You may use these tracks for sampling or for loading samples into the template. To process the tracks through the template effects, you will need to use the CUE output on the back of the Octatrack. Make sure 'CUE mutes track' is enabled; you will find this in the 'PERSONALIZE' settings on the Octatrack. After that, you must CUE tracks 4 + 8. This will direct audio from those tracks out the CUE output, where you can send it back into the Octatrack by any means you choose. I reccomend running the CUE out to the correct audio bus, i.e., Drum samples ---> input A/B, Melody samples input C/D.

TO SAVE A RECORDING TO FILE: Press FUNC + REC 3 and choose "Save This Recording". This is useful for creating stems to save and use in other projects or to transfer to your computer.

COMPRESSORS: Separate compressors are available on both stereo input sets A/B and C/D. By default, they apply mild tasteful compression to your whole mix. To set custom compressor values for each pattern, lock the compressor effect parameters on the first step of Track 1 and Track 5 within each pattern.

SIDECHAIN PUMPING: Sidechain pumping is available on all patterns and all parts. By default the pattern is 4 on the floor. To use the sidechain pumping effect turn up LFO 1 depth on Track 5. To adjust where the ducking occurs copy and paste the BRIGHT GREEN TRIGS on Track 5.

STUTTER FX: FREEZE DELAYS are available seperately on Tracks 1 and 5. To use the the FREEZE DELAY hold FUNC + DOWN ARROW and select DELAY CONTROL. GREEN button 9 controls the FREEZE DELAY for inputs A/B and GREEN button 13 controls the freeze delay for inputs C/D. FREEZE DELAYS occur before effects are applied so you can hold a frozen buffer and then apply effects.

FX BLOCKS: Space, Build, Crush, Party

64 Scenes across 4 Parts. To move to a different set of 16 scenes/fx press PART and use the arrow keys to select a new SET OF 16 EFFECTS.

You will find 2 "USER DEFINED" scenes available across all 4 parts for you to manipulate your samples.
