that works for certain instances, when youve a fairly complex 8 bar trig condition pattern set up with sample loops overlapping the end and start of a pattern its fairly limiting. either you have to wait till the end of 8 bars before changing pattern (where you can cut off the sample with a plock) or you have to have a p-lock / trigless at the end of each / every other bar cutting off the sample which means you can’t have that sample overlap into the next bar. type thing.
ideally one of the 2 mute states would be a trig mute as is, and the other would be an audio mute, or something.
Found an amazing loop using Lfo to sample slot? Would you like to record that in as parameter locks. Yes please. Now the LFO is free to be used again. Xx
It will be awesome to add parameter locks to chromatic keyboard. For example, I want F# note to sound with reverb and echo, G note - with higher filter resonance. Or even map every key of chromatic keyboard to the different sample. I don’t know if it’s possible to achieve but it will be great feature for percussion recording.
I actually had a discussion about this and recognized that this is a problem in fact … doin so with an alternative function would be great for live sequencer performing!
You can turn a trig into a trigless trig by using func+trig, it won’t play the note but remembers all locked settings. Hit the trig again to turn it into a normal trig with all the settings.
live sampling into sample slots via holding a pad number “1-8” + “Direct” (Recording). This will sample and save directly the audio in into the corresponding number slot.
all parametersetting, like channelsetting for audio in etc. will be the last used. the saved sample has a presetname like “direct_sample_01”…
I discovered copy/pasting patterns last night as well and it changed my world. Now the question is… is it possible to copy/paste tracks (sequence, sample(s), sound and settings all at once) within a pattern? If not, that’d be a request from me.
Three additions would make the Digitakt perfect for me:
Very basic EQ and compression similar to the OP1. If they could somehow work in sidechaining…
More complex monitoring options. The effects sound incredible and it would be amazing to run 2 mono sounds through them.
Internal MIDI routing please. Who needs LFOs when you have 8 tracks of P Locks?
Also, some more sound packs wouldn’t go amiss.
Other than that, I think the Digitakt is perhaps the most inspiring bit of kit I’ve ever laid my hands on. I prefer it infinitely more than my OP1 (a machine I wanted to love but just couldn’t).
