The 888's kick is doubled by the MBase here. The MBase is sent to an Analogue Solutions Filtered Coffee which generates an envelope. That envelope is used to gate is then divided so that every 8th note triggers an envelope that controls the levels of the unfiltered kick which you hear come in and out. So the only "clean" kick you hear is the XBase's kick. :) It's a weird patch that uses the kick directly to create timing. The 888 is pretty good for a sequencer, but you can't do microtunings.
great vid - thanks for making the effort! So you are just using the MBase 01 and the modular - all the sequencing takes place on the 888? How is the 888 as a sequencer? I have been looking at the Jomox machines for a while now but don't know how useful it's sequencing capabilities are. Would you recommend it? I would happily ditch my DRM1 MkIII to buy one, I think.
I haven't used it that deeply yet for sequencing, but you get 4 tracks 32 steps with the A/B function. BigCity music has a better sequence in their videos of the 888 sequencing a Cwejman SK1. If you need randomizing, pendumlum playback, then it's not good, but if you're sequencing samples, synth hits and triggers, or even a simple 4 note melody, it's good enough for that. The output levels are hot enough to fire a trigger on my modular too. And it sounds great!
sounds great, and great taste in restraint as well

Actually, the only clean kick is the MBase kick, not the 888.
