Is there a way to have each Retrig step play at a different pitch ? Similar to how you can set a velocity curve in the Retrig window.
Hmmm, not in front of the DT atm but I donāt think directly in the retrig menu. One idea is to use fill condition - p-lock the pitch to what you want and then use retrig that way. Could possibly even throw an LFO onto the voice to have pitch rise or fall? Sounds like a fun experiment! Let us know the outcome!
Thanks for the ideas. I donāt have Digitak yet so I was asking if this is possible before mine arrives.

Oh! Boy are you in for a treat! Iāve had mine since it came out and am very comfortable with it now and still discovering new things to do and different ways to approach sound design with samples as the method. Almost anything you can think of to do, you can do it, if you canāt, thereās usually a work around. Timestretch for instance, it doesnāt have it but cleverly using LFOs and trigs and you can fake it. It doesnāt get you THERE but itās wild and a dozen ideas come out from that one thing.
Half the fun of this box is that itās in the Goldilocks zone. It is simple enough to get off the ground quickly and deep enough to keep you interested for a very long time. Enjoy it!
Maybe with a LFO of enveloppe on the Pitch ?
Or with a midi translator, playing tracks from midi, you can send different pitch CC values, while the sample page is retriggin. With different track scales for example.
Maybe it looks complicated but this kind of thing can be cool to use.
What is good midi translator to use with Digitakt ?
@Chronos
It works! I did it on a snareāŗļø
With settings like these:
Enjoy your Digitakt when it arrives! I LOVE IT

I use āBomeā, itās a software, you can use it by the way of a midi-usb cable. (midi In-Midi Out-Usb)
Can do a lot of thing with, as playing polyphony 
But you have to do presets for this.
Or find them/ ask help to bome guys etc.
just realised this means you must be able do the same with sample source, so you could put three or four samples of different notes in and fake an Arpeggiatorā¦
(or is note an LFO target anyway? Canāt remember!)
Yup
It takes a little time to figure out as your default sample value is important based on type of lfo you use , and if your lock a lfo.trig on specific step .
Basically ā¦ experiment

What do you recommend as a starting sample value for hi hats and snares in order to retrig and pitch shift repeated notes with an LFO?
To be honest I wouldnāt bother
Thereās so much samplememory that Iād just make samples that sound like retrigged snares rising in pitch instead of all the hassle of setting up lfoās etc and putting retrograde on snares.
Make a few variants at your typical Bpm, keep it simple.
And keep the sound away from me , when I travel on underground all I hear is leaky apple headphones with trap style hihat and snare rolls. I donāt get it.
but what if you want to use it on a sound other than a snare
