Sound Pack: Drench Case for Digitakt

The human tornado blesses us with some scorny bits and I am completely on board.

In the wise words of napalm death (scum):
Another product for you to buy,
youā€˜ll keep paying until you die.

Btw: stupid question. For ot these need to be converted to 41.1khz or not or what is meant with also works on ot?

DT takes 16 bits/48 kHz mono samples.
OT likes both mono and stereo 16 bits/24 bits 44.1 kHz samples.
So it will work, but the samples will most likely be slightly pitched down.

On OT, you will most likely want to create 64-sample chains with Octachainer, which is also a great tool to convert your samples.

Do they really get pitched down or re-sampled? I am curious

If you put a 48kHz sample on the OT Flash Card, it will be pitched down, I am 90% sure if this. Iā€™ll check later, if you want.

Iā€™m almost 100% certain this is the case.

You even get a small flat face appear beside the sample in the sample browser if itā€™s not the correct sample rate.

Pretty sure itā€™s

:slight_smile: -> good sample rate & enough buffer space

:expressionless: -> wrong sample rate but enough buffer space

:frowning: -> not enough space to load sample in ram buffer

I second this - a dtprj file would be cool - to fully demonstrate the soundscape of a sample pack and to teach about how some tracks are arranged / sequenced etc.

dtprj-files are a rarity, and yet such a good learning resource.

These are the best sound pack demos Iā€™ve ever heard! Badass.

So to be clear, the samples are not also formatted in 44.1khz for the OT (and in my case SP-16)?

Indeed. They are all mono / 16 bits / 48kHz samples (Iā€™ve just checked).
But itā€™s not hard to convert.

The only valid format for Digitakt is 48k/16bit mono, then the Transfer app will be in charge of converting any other format you throw into it so to match the specs.

Youā€™re right, I thought it was 24 bits but itā€™s only the audio AD/DA converters that are 24 bits on DT.

worst experience trying to purchase/download this ā€¦
I hadnt logged on to Elektron.se since it got changed/fucked up and good god did it make me work for itā€¦
Wouldnt accept my log in info, made me re input my email, wouldnt accept the email ive been using for years so i switched momentarily to my work email and that was a huge mistake because it wouldnt let me switch back to my old email.
long, harrowing story cut short, i got the website to acknowledge my old email and got my purchase info back, but no record of this Drench Case soundpack in my history, though they absolutely took money from me for itā€¦
Im ready for the pitchforks and torchesā€¦
this new website is absolute garbage.
im over an hour and a half in trying to purchase and download a soundpack.

I bought it on my phone and didnā€™t see a download link in the email or anything. I had to log into the site, view my account and find the sound pack section.

Iā€™ve been having an absolute blast with these sounds ever since.

I was literally just listening to Scornā€™s album Evanescence (kinda on repeat) for the first time in decades and thinking about how well itā€™s held up. In the 90s there was a good year where I would alternate between Scorn, FSOL, and Orbital to sleep. This is so right on time and Mick Harris is a beastā€¦

Dunce question - is it better to create sample chains for packs like this?
Why would you not just convert the samples from 48-44.1 and drop them on the CF card?
Thanks :slight_smile:
