ANALOG KEYS WITH OTHER ELEKTRON GEAR

Analog Keys really thrives with other Elektron gear. In this example it is used with an Octatrack and a
Machinedrum. The Machinedrum main output is connected to Analog Keys inputs. Analog Keys main output is
connected to one of the input pairs of the Octatrack. The main outputs of the Octatrack goes to the PA. The
Machinedrum and Analog Keys are MIDI slaved to the Octatrack.

The Machinedrum creates the beats. Analog Keys is responsible for basses and synth sounds. The Octatrack
plays back loops and can also be used to sample the audio from Analog Keys plus Machinedrum.

Because the Machinedrum is connected to Analog Keys inputs, the internal effects of Analog Keys can be used
to affect the incoming signal. This can be used to add sudden washes of reverb or delay to the beat.

1.

Press the fifth [TRACK] key, the FX track, on Analog Keys. Select the EXT IN page.

2.

3.

Make a performance macro controlling the CHO, DEL and REV parameters, located on the EXT IN page of
the FX track, for both the left and right channel. See page 18 on how to make a performance macro.
