For anyone looking for MKII tutorials on the Octatrack I highly recommend The Messy Desk on YouTube. Dude is hilarious and makes the Octatrack entertaining.
I was sceptical whether to get one after a deal on ebay fell through. But I just copped one on the Black Friday deal at Andertons and I’m looking forward to it.
BAX is the cheapest which I found out too late. They have 7.5% off with the code BF2020 but andertons are doing triple loyalty points on your next purchase so technically bax was only £20 cheaper
Not calling you out but Andertons haven’t got an Octatrack on todays deals?? I only know because i’ve looked and rang them if they had one under the usual price.
Sure. It wasn’t just mainly about finding a lot of content for the OT MKII on his channel but how he delivers the content.
I’m very impatient and usually click off a video if it gets too dull so he kept me coming back for more and I’ve gone through several of his videos.
I was tentative about jumping in and trying the OT again but his content gave me some reassurance on a lot of different aspects and suddenly it didn’t seem too daunting.
Ok. Sorry but I couldn’t stand below video so I’m pretty sure that it will be the case for others.
Octadad? Talking about it’s tv life with its girlfriend?
Big fan of “The Messy Desk” - I generally find Daniel’s videos entertaining and informative.
I’ve seen comments on YT from people who don’t like his “American” humor, and I would agree that maybe it’s not for everyone. However, one of the best facets of YT is you can find multiple channels covering any topic, and the best ones have a distinct personality…each suiting a different audience’s taste.
If he stayed on topic it wouldn’t be bad. But he tries a bit too hard to be funny and it puts me off. Also, i don’t think this is American humor. Trying too hard to be liked is universal. But to put a positive spin on it, he’s putting something out in the world. That’s cool.
My problem with these type of negative comments about Youtubers is that YouTube is not a school or a place where you guarantee to find lessons(it’s not like Skillshare for example) so I don’t get why people pretend so much and feels they can judge someone’s video.
They don’t own you anything and they don’t have to do anything. A lot of Youtubers are genuinely there to share their knowledge but that doesn’t mean they need to have a study plan or something.
I see it more as if my friend show me something: some friends are serious and focused, some waist time in details, some try to be funny, some do absolutely nothing.
But in any way I would thank my friend because without asking is trying to help me.
Also we’re fans of the OT so let’s embrace diversity instead of pretending they’re standardised YouTubers
I appreciated him being honest about his life and mental health issues
I don’t appreciate him calling himself smart every four minutes, especially if he’s braggingly hinting at critical theory / equality and emancipation issues a minute later
I like that there’s more content about OT
But it’s a person putting themselves out there for something they care about, which I appreciate, so I believe we should try to not be haters, like people said it’s free for each person to choose to watch it or not:) Not aimed at anyone here, I’m just in a fase of my life where I’m trying to lose my judgemental nature, I wanna appreciate what I appreciate instead of hate on the stuff I don’t.
No hate, but Octatrack is no joke!
Well, I think watching a 16 minutes video about how to make a slide is a waste of time. And I’d watch something else to have fun.
