The Digitakt Feature Request Thread

You might be able to do this if your CH.LEN is long enough.

Modular destination for the compressor. The way it is triggered by track volume could be used to affect a parameter other than output volume.

That would be nice! Some options = )

I don’t really use pattern chain if that what CH.LEN is referring too… I just think it would be neat to enter an edit mode so you can view and make changes to different banks without having to have it play while your doing it.

i am definitely a fan of the BRR on Digitakt, but i do sometimes think having an SRR as well (like OT’s Lofi Collection) would put the instrument over the top as a sound design tool

I’m someone else that doesn’t really understand why it’s BRR not SRR… I mean, bit rate reduction basically turns something up and introduces noise (assuming dithering… I guess the DT effect probably doesn’t dither so you also get some distortion…)

Not to say that can’t be useful in itself, but for me Sample rate reduction is a lot more interesting in terms of mangling audio, especially as you could sweep it on the DT. Horses for courses though I guess!

After thinking about what I said regarding using CH.LEN (change length) I don’t think it’s possible. My thought was having a long CH.LEN setting (say 8 bars) that you could trigger the next pattern to play and then edit it before the change occurs but I just realized that you can’t do this. The editable pattern is the playing one. Disregard my suggestion :slight_smile:

my only guess on this is because BRR is the more traditionally used reduction for kicks - really gives an 808 that “blown out” distorted sound - and this is after all a “drum computer.” i’ve had luck with certain samples combing the DT’s BRR with its low pass to create a sort of SP404-style “vinyl” effect but it’s hit or miss pending the noise floor of the sample it seems.

Adjustable knob sensitivity and maybe different response curves! Especially for the MIDI channels, this would be super useful.

I would love for the name of the pattern to scroll so you could see the full pattern name if it’s longer than the screen can fit.

Distortion/saturation. Like a FX send. With its own page like delay and reverb. With alot of nice parameters ofc

Live preview when scrolling through samples.

The possibility to monitor in stereo through the l/r inputs

Ability to select destination for midi-tracks : “Internal” / “External” to use midi loopback trick without blocking up the din-ports (e.g. send program changes or cc’s from one of the midi-tracks to digitakt itself)

totally agree.

also on the list of features requests : solve the bugs concerning sync problems

Since the DT doesn’t have velocity sensitive pads, a 16 levels mode would be handy.

It would be great if on the sample page one could pick clock (instead of threshold recording) and put in a bar count (1,2,4) bars. The digitakt would sample to clock at the start of the 1st measure of the pattern. How I long for this!

Parametric EQ for a track or a master channel!

It would be great.

A way to assign # of midi notes to each midi track out of a pool of 32 notes rather than 4/track, so if you assign one midi voice to track A you’d free up three to assign to the other midi channels, for example.

(or)

A way to “group” midi channels together to get 8 (or 12/16 even) voice polyphony. So Group Track A and B together and notes 1-4 would be on A and notes 5-8 on B… any Trigs or Locks applied on “master” midi track (A) would also apply to the “slave” midi track (B).

Just thinking of ways beyond 4 voice poly without workarounds.

Audio in L / Audio in R as “sources” for the sample-tracks in stead of a sample

(filter, fx and compression on ext ins anyone?) :slight_smile:
