Guide/Tutorial/Cheatsheet for controlling Digitakt with Octatrack

Yo!

I recently saw a cheat sheet for all the MIDI CCs/NPRNs here… but I can’t find it anymore. Also the manual wasn‘t a big help somehow.

Is it possible to use the OT‘s 3 MIDI LFOs to control „everything“ in the DT / add all the MIDI magic to the DT?

All needed informations should be in manuals.

You can send any CC with OT lfos, Pitchbend, Aftertouch, but you can’t send NRPNs.
Check DT midi parameter’s list.

Beware of continuous lfos, it sends a lot of midi data. If you can, choose Hold, it will send a value only when there’s a note or trigless trig.

Well, yeah… I suppose you mean page 66 (Appendix A: MIDI) - but I don‘t understand it. I have 8 Tracks I want to control but there are only CCs for one track … I guess the currently selected?

The digitakt sampler tracks 1-8 recieve midi notes and CCs on midi channels 1-8 by default. I believe you can change the channels they listen on if needed.
