So… let a drum machine run for an hour straight and toss in the odd sound effect? I’ve been making this kind of music for years apparently!
squelchies!
What ios synth can be like a vermona ( without talking about midi knob control ) should you work out what the octrack is doing? Would a behringer BRC32 be better than an octatrack for vermona or would an ipad be ok? Seeing sequencing potential from a controller. Its bugging me now. Do I see if audioc4 can still be sent back and not buy another ipad. Were in Vermona territory and you might not need an octatrack. Would do you think. Of course a vermona seems better than another ipad. Its just whats the Vermona all about.
The closest I’ve come to the sound of techno I like is by turning reverb up on each track a little more than usual. Then turning a low pass filter down real low on the master so much that you need to turn the volume up to hear it. Keep it low frequency with little flares of opening up that lpf
Same here. In fact I want to make so little Techno it almost none.
So many amazing videos. I've learned so much so far. I finally started a new Richie Hawtin-esque track in Gadget. I'm setting up the main loop. Kick is Tokyo and is set to 1 bar, clap sound is Kingston and is set to 2 bars, the arp synth is Pompei and is set to 3 bars, and the bass sound is Chicago set to 7 bars...so far. That should be more than enough to get me started as this is SUPPOSED to be "minimal" afterall. I'm so f*cking excited. 😃 I'll answer some individual replies in a bit.
Really?
@jwmmakerofmusic Have you bought FAC drum kit yet? I just pointed Rosetta Rhythm at it and LFO’d a couple of things and that’s a whole minimal techno track right there.
Cool. Got a demo mate?
Some really great feedback here. Thanks for posing the question @jwmmakerofmusic and enjoy the process...really inspired now
Oh my god. Thanks to everybody's excellent feedback, I think I f*cking nailed it. 😱 8+ minutes of pure hypnotic bliss. Gonna upload the results to my Soundcloud and post here in the forum in a bit. Gotta register it to Songuard first. 😉
And here it is mates!

Found this on Youtube.
The last part is a testimonial for Adam Audio monitors, but the first 10 or so minutes is an insight into Richie Hawtin's mind. It's very rare to next-to-near-impossible for me these days to be so impressed by someone they become a massive influence on my music, but this is one of those bizarre life-changing moments for me.
I grew up with Yanni and world music, with Sash and other similar artists, with 90s House like Crystal Waters, etc, but I never grew up with Richie Hawtin, with Jeff Mills, and so many other greats. It's discovering a new world and musical ideology I never knew before. 😱 I am just so fucking stoked!
Somehow I missed this one earlier... Minimal Techno Drambo stylee:
I would make the most of the least!
Get a drum machine with individual outs.
Open them in AUM.
Insert effects on the highats (Eventide Pack).
Vouala!
On top you can add a track of Ruismaler noir, and some stabs from the free “Synth One” .
Learn how to record effect changes with Midi FX with apps like Drambo. You will be a Techno guy in notime

This is fantastic
What are good tempos for minimal?
Around 130 bpm
.
The most minimal response in this thread . 🤣 Bravo.
Sorry mate. Posted in wrong thread.
It's okay mate. It made me laugh, because one simple period seems like it fits the thread so well.
Try some Paula Temple - nice sounds🔥
@NTKK paula temple is god lol
Lovely sounds indeed. And at times, while designing sounds, the song ideas will just pop up and tell you how to move on.
Definitely checking her music out. ☺️
It's strange. I've never been able to tame Drambo and hard for me to wrap my head around how to program the beast. And I've programmed fully modular synths in the past with cables and shit. But damn if this video didn't want to make me redownload it so I can learn it inside and out. Beautiful example.
I really liked the VCMG “ssss” record that came out a few years ago.
NanoStudio and Gadget are obvious contenders for the “how”. I might suggest you to go even more limited though. Nanoloop is really fun. ElasticDrums might be just enough as well.
God, it's been eons since I last played with Nanoloop.
This documentary about Richie Hawtin is absolutely amazing.
