Sample management, upload, and download — all right from your browser (well, from Chrome), with no installation or download needed. Yes, similar to what Transfer 1.1 does, but a different take on organization - you may find it more to your liking.
Assuming that the +Drive samples environment on the mkI is the same, probably. I don’t have a mkI to test. Also, I’m going to bet that it will only work with very new firmware, since the SysEx messages I’m using were introduced with the 2017 machines.
What’s the primary difference in the firmware that prevents MK1 integration? I guess the older machines don’t have the appropriate sysex command? What sysex command did they add? Request File / Folder structure?
Starting with Digitakt, there was a new style of SysEx commands. This newer API has the promise of being more consistent and uniform across machines, which is great for us software writers. The +Drive sample API on Digitakt is in this new form… and I learned at NAMM that with OS 1.40C it is available on Rytm mkII… and indeed, once I took out the “look for Digitakt in the device name” code, crunch worked immediately on the Rytm mkII.
My understanding is that there is full intention to get this API back on the mkI. I imagine that the difficulty with getting the mkI OS out lies in what ever data conversion needs to happen on your machine when the new firmware is applied to bring the +Drive to the same code revision as on the others. I fully expect as soon as that OS is released, crunch (and Transfer 1.1) will “just work”.
Hi mzero, it works for rearranging sample folders but if I try to drag a wav from my desktop into a folder the resulting file that appears on the Rytm is just noise. Any ideas?
