Step 2. Scope Out The Idea and Objective
Building on the drum beat a melody could consist of a lead line, pad,
ambient drones, chimes etc. The options are many.
* Destination also refers to the Digitakt and Digitone factory presets
7 Steps To Creating A Melody.
Objective. The objective is to build on the drum beat project and add more
melodic elements. Also to include additional hardware in the process as a
sound source. The melodic sounds will be handled by a desktop FM synth,
in this case Elektron’s Digitone but could equally be another device or DAW.
Step 1. Connect the Gear.
MIDI Out
Using the 5 Pin to
3.5mm adapter
MIDI Cong
The destination device must be congured to receive MIDI. The MIDI IN and Thru connections are used
to ensure a single MIDI network with two devices controlled by T-1. Clock can be external from T-1 but
Transport should be off, so that only T-1 controls the sequence. Device tracks and associated MIDI
Channels should match with the sound required.
Audio Cong
Both sound modules can be connected to a mixer and in turn to monitors or headphones.
