To more clearly restate what I was trying to say in the first paragraph of my response. I do not think it’s likely they look to this thread, or any of the feature request threads, as a major source for feature request because there is an official way to submit feature request through the elektron website.
It’s not like Novation where features are being added due to forum input.
‘No’ I say.
The DT is an entry level Elektron device and, as it’s very name suggests, a drum/ sample focused one at that.
It cannot do everything that other products from Elektron are capable of - what a pity! Buy the others then, there you are, I fixed it for you. A company IS allowed to make money by selling products, right? The opinion that Elektron ‘sells you a box which lacks a feature in order to sell you another’ doesn’t hold water IMO.
Actually, we could have a fully featured DT with all the requests, but it would be prohibitively expensive for many of those in the current DT customer base.
Surely it’s best to work within the limits of the machine (which are by no means restrictive). Props to all those who are finding work-arounds and alternatives - it’s a testament to how flexible and open the DT really is
Oh I’d love polyrhythms another filter type and distortion instead of Bit Reduction, but will be perfectly satisfied with the box as it is with all bugs ironed out and functioning OB for all.
It’s sure. But there are some small issues that could be improved for this kind of machine. Like be able to transposing, bp filter or having stereo monitoring.
I’d love others requests, like slicing, or procesing input signal, but I know these are luxuries, not basic workflow request.
thanks dave but i know the step shift option, i was just referring to shifting whole tracks with the same method. pressing multiple steps also works but gets fiddly fast.
I have posted that quite a bit lately. I don’t really mind if it ends up being helpful for someone. “Unofficial” to the title of the thread would definitely clear things up, as this is really a wishlist discussion.
But yeah, I’m sure it’s getting annoying to keep seeing me post that over and over. I’ll probably stop
Not at all, it doesn’t annoy me, it’s a pity that people, justifiably, get their hopes up that things will be implemented/ considered if posted here.
I’m sure it takes some of the heat of Elektron customer support though
