While browsing the octatrack forum, I came across this thread:
Essentially, when using a pad controller to trigger a sample, you arrange a cc message to be sent prior to the note on message, where the CC message stipulates the start point of the sample.
It also seems to have become evident that the octatrack prioritises note on messages over CC messages when received instantly, so the experiments conducted included sending the note on signal latently by approximately 10 milliseconds. Have we established if the digitakt has the same prioritization, and if so, if it is sensitive by that same 10 millisecond buffer?
What are thoughts on this technique being used to slice on the digitakt? What is a method to send CC before note value? Lemur is mentioned in the octatrack thread, but not a definitive answer.
I love this forum - thank you for the wonderful ideas and techniques so far!
