Had a good time with everyone today doing the Octatrack livestream. It's a beast. Good beast.

This video is the edited version of what we worked through. I tried to hit all what I consider the major points of what makes the Octa special. Do check the table of contents of the YouTube video if you are curious about a specific part, but keep in mind this video is meant to be a cumulative walkthrough. We build continuously on the previous sections to show off what this crazy friend can do.

Thank you so much for being part of this journey with me. :)
