Digitakt is connected to PC via OB and MIDI to Minlogue XD, DAW is Ableton 10.
MIDI A is set as the channel for the Minilogue but whenever I program a sequence on the DT on MIDI A it triggers the Synth and the Kick on Channel 1. Its driving me crazy and stopping me making any music.
I don’t know Ableton, but in my DAW I have to tell the DT VST to pass through the midi channels. Otherwise they will map to CH1, which is the kick. Does Midi-B also trigger the kick? If so, something in your chain is mapping to CH1, and you have midi-doubling.
I think ive stumbled across it. In OUTPUT TO it was set to MIDI+USB, if just set to MIDI it doesn’t trigger the kick any more. Also I didnt know that the MIDI settings were per project and not global unless Im wrong.
Hallo guys, I have the exact same problem, but setting “Output to MIDI” doesn’t allow me to use the DT with Overbridge, of course. Is there a way I could make DT work with OB and avoiding this triggering? On my DT, all MIDI tracks trigger Track 1 (poor track 1!). I’m totally stuck, any help would be appreciated.
I’ve overcome this by changing the Auto Channel and FX channels. By default I think they’re on 9-10, so I changed them to 15-16 and it solves this issue. This has to be changed in midi config per project though. No way around it that I can see. The only downside is not really being able to use channels 15-16 if they’re needed.
Hallo @DataStrain, thank you for you suggestion. I tried it but it doesn’t solve my issue, every MIDI triggers Track 1. The problem does go away when I change the Output to only MIDI, like suggested by @kelvin, but what I’m trying to do is using my setup with Overbridge. I also tried to change every possible combination of channels but without luck unfortunately.
Hallo @kelvin , I just realized that if I switch off/on the DT, as well as Ableton, it does work but like 40% of the times… totally random. I’m using Ableton Standard on Windows 10, maybe on Mac is more stable!
