Scale/tempo division per track would be fantastic.
I would also love a wider pitch scale range of samples.
Stereo passthrough from moitoring the input, if at all possible. Or input routing through effects.
Before I bought it, I was worried that mono samples would be an issue, but it hasn’t really bothered me yet.
All in all, it’s an inspirational intrument. I’m very happy with it as is.
That is what has bothered me the most with the Overbridge trouble. Not Overbridge itself, as I never was very interested in it, but the impact it has had on updates to the device itself. I did expect more updates to DT than what it has got. Although nice with the compressor, the end of the signal chain is the one place I actually can update myself. Song/updated chain mode, 2nd filter from DN, live rec retrigs… that’s the stuff I (subjective) long for, but can’t do anything about myself.
I am really so, so deeply sorry about this. At the time we were working on a sort of song mode alternative, but it fell flat and we ran out of time for the release - this is what happened, nothing else to it than that.
I hate making empty promises, and I really do not want to accidentally trick anyone- this is why I tend to be a bit vague and always say that I cannot promise a lot of things.
I think there is still a possibility for this though, but it’s all a question of when and how - there is a lot of other things to be done, but I think and hope that we can have some time and resources for updates soon.
Again, don’t take this as an ‘official’ confirmation of anything, but just know that I hear this clearly and recognize the issues/desires. (And agree with a lot of it! Lots of little things I would like to see added myself… There is never a lack of ideas, just time.)
I know this has been discussed before and it’s not a “real” alternative, but with the MIDI loopback you can easily build a Song Mode that you can save within your project, you just need a MIDI cable and a free MIDI track.
Please get MIDI PW & MW to work as as it stands it’s a truly awful implementation, Yes I know it’s only a ‘Drum synth’ but you should be ‘tune’ the drum (sample!) by waggling the PitchWheel when it’s playing back/being recorded. There’s all the other midi info filtered out too, actually make midi a bit of a waste of time as it’s so crippled from a performance point of view.
I’m not even a ‘Musician’ but to me it makes the DT a bit pants.
I’d really like to hear this is going to be sortid.
Scale/Tempo per track
Song Mode.
PROPER MIDI!
Here’s hoping…
Str.
IMO the ability to share the kit for a pattern chain would be great as a compromise between what’s available now and a full song mode. An MVP could be:
Aftermarket internal battery.
Digitakt already has trouble crossing customs…
Add LiPo in a DT = 
I prefer an external battery 
That’s why it could be an aftermarket kit, so it’s optional for the user. It looks like there’s plenty of space inside the box…
Anything ‘internal’ is a no no as it’s ‘Hardware’ related, so forget it.
Software ONLY.
I’ve No idea (I’m not a softi) how far the current processor is pushed but figure the midi implementations, song mode and the scale per track amount to next to sod all, just kept out so;
1; They can be added later as an ‘Upgrade’
2; So it doesn’t ‘detract’ from other products.
Such a shame, but somewhat business related.
As a company you cant make any promises so it’s barely worth winging about.
You may get the features you want you may not.
Cant say I’m too bothered as I don’t make music, just mess about.
Soldering iron is my tool and mine costs more than a DT!
I know the current trend is DAWless hence products like the DT, but if you’re serious about making music you’d use a DAW simple as. Performance however is another matter and Elektron is clearly way ahead with such.
Str.
I’m all for an internal loopback toggle somewhere in the menus, yes 
But I’m not sure if thats easier to accomplish than letting us save the chains. My wish is MD/MM tracker-style song mode. It’s so nice and much more powerful than most think. And the beauty is that it “only” has to ported to newer machines. They already have the code done.
Yeah, I agree, loopback is just a workaround and proper feature would be way better! I’m not familiar with MD and MM tho, I just know that they look cool
I’ve used trackers a long time ago and it’s a lot of fun filled nostalgia to use but there’s also some really neat tricks the MD/MM song mode can do other than just sequence patterns.
Glide is a Standard!
i bought my digitakt a view weeks ago and i must say i was (and still am) disappointed, when i found out this thing has no Glide… i did not expect that at all, because Glide is a absolute Standard in all mono synths and Samplers. Even the smallest ones have it. All my basslines and Leads sound totally lifeless without Glide. So Pleeeeeeeeeeeeease give us Glide!!!
For me, the the ramp shape in half mode targeting the tune worked well as a DIY glide. Play with the phase, speed and depth - and the note length itself - until you’re happy with the sound. Page 44 in the manual has a nice visual guide if that helps you in any way.
Of course it takes away the LFO for something else, but if it’s absolutely essential, you can make glide work I guess.
Hardest part is nailing the correct tuning with the LFO depth.
Hi Lauli, thanx for the Tip. i´m gonna try that as a workaround. but i really really hope for Gilde in a future update.
A specific glide feature would be more playable for sure. I would love to see them implement that.
I want to see them implement an additional saving system along side patterns and sounds.
Stems!
It would be a save format that includes sample, sound, and track information.
Basically having a batch of ready made drum, bass, or synth lines (with fill or probability trigs for example) that you could drop into a pattern for interesting builds and transitions.
I could see it being very playable.
This would also really help with transferring songs from one project to another.
c’mon elektron…sample lock on model:sample!!!
why not an update for digitakt with scale per track. pls!!!
I imagine the updates will come in accordance with the overbridge development. Eventually a new official out of beta OS. If that doesn’t have anything new at least they’ll probably have more time to consider adding things after OB is out of beta…
They just added this to the model sample, check your email
