Difference between sequence once live recorded and the original one from external sequencer

Hi there,

i don’t know if i miss something.

i send midi data from Cirklon to Digitone2: notes and also parametters changes via midi CC numbers

transport is ON so the Digitone follow the clock and transport of the Cirklon sequence.

i see synth parametters moving on digitone during the playback of the sequence, sound is changing like i want.

i press Rec +Play to record the sequence into the digitone

problem: sequencer recorded do not sound the same that the one played from the external sequencer

try sending in parameter changes on the DN’s Auto Channel (as opposed to a track channel) …

I could record CCs on Digitone 2.Track channel.
Notes and CCs sent from Digitakt 2, with DN2 track channel.

Also tested successfully with Auto Channel.

ahhh well my first post is not totally true sorry.

fact is that when i send the sequence from cirklon and record it to the digitone the sequene is not the same, i can’t figure why.

if i check the P-lock i clearly have a modification per trig so yes it rec CC but strangely it’s not the same sound when the sequence is played and modulated by the cirklon directly than the one payed by the electron once it’s recorded while the Cirklon track is OFF.

Nor title. :wink:

Depends on your Cirklon sequence, as it can be linear vs DN2 step sequencer.

Btw it also sounded different on DT2 vs DN2 but I didn’t investigated in why…

indeed hehe.

i only light some steps on the cirklon (on the modulation aux) it should be step seq too isn’t it?

what do you mean? you write a sequence en Digitakt it’s not sound the same once recorded in Digitone?

I checked again, it sounded similar.
I was previously playing over something already recorded.

I really don’t know Cirklon, a guy showed me it in SFF…(Synth Fest France).

Check this thread and think about if this could explain it:

Digitakt 2 record midi and play back - Elektron Gear / Digitakt - Elektronauts

Note that Circklon might send out nice curves with CC (I don’t own it), but the Digitone sequencer only records CC in step values. Then of course it’s never going to sound the same.
