I’ve written a complete UI and most of the code for Project management on the Digitakt: Ability to re-order patterns, and re-order loaded samples while keeping everything connected. Also, finding unused samples, and copying patterns (and their needed samples) to other projects. What’s missing is that the box has no SysEx commands for this yet(*).
I talked with Elektron extensively about this back at NAMM in January. They are keen to open up the unit by offering the APIs needed. However, it was understood that this was all 2nd place to getting Overbridge out the door… and that is still in progress.
I’m ready when they are!
(*): Yes, the box can dump projects and patterns via SysEx - but that is an “opaque blob” of data - I could reverse engineer it (as I had the original APIs) - and use that data to let you manage projects, but because it is “dump and restore” the workflow would be very clunky. I’m holding off on doing this for the APIs… but I may give in by Summer!
