Yup! I use ABL3's sequencer a lot
I love ABL3's sequencer. Random mode, then go in and tweak it as you like. It's so good. I just wish there were a CV out on the back for slide. It's cool they have accent, but slide would be great because those great slides get lost with the sequencer out. I've tried adjusting the portamento on the receiving device, but it doesn't seem to do the trick.
Question for you, Joey. What do you usually use the accent cv out for (if at all)?
Yeah I'd like to see a slide CV output as well, I'd put it to good use
I use the Accent CV out for a few things. I was actually thinking of putting together a quick tips video with ways to use ABL3.
So one of the things I do is I'll feed the accent output into the cutoff input of the same ABL3 to gets some nice juicy squelchiness.
Also, aside from triggering other leads, I use ABL3 to trigger drums.
Try this:
- Connect the ABL3 Accent output to a CV splitter
- Then take one of those back into the Cutoff input of ABL3
- Create a Drum Machine of your choice
- Take the other Accent CV from the splitter and send it to the gate input of the kick drum
- Now connect the ABL3 Gate output to the gate input for hats or percussion
- Then I'll usually create a Matrix for the snare, usually on 2 and 4
Then I go back to the ABL3 and I start messing with the ABL3 pattern. I'll usually use the advanced random feature, scroll presets I've saved, etc. And the beat plays along with the ABL3 and its changes and it's pretty cool
I especially like the kick triggering with the accent, which is also affecting the cutoff.
