Did Rob use the elektrons at all, or only Sean? Not that it’s important to know, haha.

Mad love for all the comments / examples on their technique. Thanks yall.
Now who’s going to be the hero and make some samples? (unsure of the ethics involved; correct me if wrong)
Awesome 
That glass is stressing me out.

Autechre just put out a teaching tool that’s more effective than a thousand pages of compiled user tips. Explore at your own pace, reverse engineer, tweak, absorb lessons by osmosis. So incredibly generous. I love when Autechre deigns to give us a peek behind the curtains - there are always vast worlds to explore.

I’m curious what you mean by this. What were some routing examples you learned from the factory presets? I may go through them myself…
Well said! I guess my point was that, up until now, I’ve mostly stuck to reading the manual, reading compiled tips for the MD on these forums and trying to muddle through applying them myself, and watching a few youtube tutorials for specific techniques. All wonderful, indispensable resources, but not nearly as visceral and ready to play with as this, which makes a big difference in learning. I never really thought about digging into the factory patches, my limited imagination I suppose! (Generally speaking, one of the first things I do when I get my hands on a new machine is ignore the factory content, lol)
(Almost off-topic: I kind of lost track of Autechre’s output over the last, um, decade. I just went and bought some of the recent stuff from their web store as a thank you to them for posting the MD and MM files.

this is incredible. I have a couple MD only tracks, but could never get it so dynamic sounding. I’ll definitely be tearing apart these patterns
I think it was on that WATTMM thread that they said the two machines had been boxed up for awhile.
They probably did this to move them at a profit
