I want to play and record Syntakt patterns in a DAW (Bitwig), where I can send this MIDI to a machine drum with its own sounds.
I got to the point where the Syntakt is sending MIDI notes to the DAW when I trigger the Syntakt keys. Different Syntakt tracks send different notes and the machine drum in my DAW plays its sounds accordingly. All good.
Except… this only works when I trigger the keys manually. If I press Play, the tracks are triggered in the Syntakt as expected but no MIDI data arrives to the DAW. Am I missing something or is this how it is supposed to work? How can I get those MIDI notes to the DAW?
By setting tracks to midi…
Reload pattern Kit Data after recording.
I’d wish a midi out option as on AR btw.

Thank you, @sezare56!
Ok, I see. The MIDI-related settings and documentation gave me the impression that this kind of MIDI out for notes was in place already. Now it’s clear why it isn’t explicitly mentioned.
I wonder whether this is a feature that a software update could bring in the future. Setting channels to MIDI and then back to their synths sounds boring enough not to do it regularly. Perhaps it’s not so much trouble. I’ll check. Thank you again! Yesterday I spent a good amount of time trying all config combinations, MIDI cables and all.
