Octatrack Trick - 64 Breakbeat x 16 Slices Megabreak XFading Slices!

WascalMusicUK on youtube shared:

Quick example of a trick I've come up with on my Octatrack:

Ingredients:
64 breakbeats at the same bpm (best prepared in ableton)

- each sliced into 16 slices
- slice 1 of all breakbeats saved as one '64 sample' wav
- slice 2 of all breakbeats saved as another 64 etc etc

Instructions
Load all 16 wavs that you created into static slots
Slice each sample into 64 slices (dont snap to zero)
Enable slice on your Octatrack channel
Create a pattern on the Octatrack with step 1 sample-locked to slice one, step 2 to slice 2 etc

Map X-Fader to one scene mapped to Slice1 and another set to Slice64

- Play the loop and you can swich to a different breakbeat at any point of the loop.
- Set up a load of different patterns with the sample locks in different orders for variation

Press play and mess around with the x-fader. Instant jungle mayhem
