Hey everyone, big past Elektron user here, dabbled into modular for a few years before nearly ruining myself, which eventually led me to take the homeless road with an Elektron Syntakt, in my backpack for almost a year now, playing music wherever I feel welcomed and inspired, camping around cities, villages…
This recording was after a full month in Barcelona’s hills, no video feed but a new one is coming very soon, so please follow if you’re into it 
Would love some feedback or some help to grow too so feel free to comment, message me for anything ! 
Have a good one

Funny you opened a thread like that, i was about to open a similar one to know if there are travelling musicians, to exchange tips and which gear they use, etc.
Are you travelling too ? I got the syntakt with a mini rig on me, but I’m starting to miss sample workflow
Libraries are a blessing aha 
I am but carrying way too much with me atm. I need to find a way to reduce my gear: OT, electric guitar, ND3p, Looper, pedals, Microcosm, Babyface Pro, cables, adapters… 22kg to sneak in the airplane with me, too much stress. No place for bring the DN.
Ideally i’d have a bix with everything connected but can’t trust luggages handling in airport.
wow that’s a lot of gear, Syntakt/laptop/battery is already so much I feel, would love some end-of-chain master/FX to play around but being portable and light is still n°1 priority
I’ll be back in Europe soon and will try to busk around cities, prolonging the travel, do you busk too with all this or you’re going for places/people to play ?
I’m primarily a guitar players o i 'd feel really naked without a guitar. Then i have been busking for years using a looper, then added an octaver and was using beatbox but replaced it with the ND3p. Now I’ll play in busking festivals with it but if i have to busk in non organized events, i’ll go back to the most minimal setup.
I use to join other projects playing the guitar when i travel and would like to start an electronic project with the OT/ND3p/MC and maybe DN but i’m not there yet.
Nowadays i mostly playing gigs and do some busking but less extensively than before (it’s also much less tolerated and working in this cashless/digitalized society).
