Digitakt II Feature Requests

Hi there. New elektronaut here with a fresh Digitakt 2.
I have used hardware and software for making electronic music since 1980. I have owned a shit-ton of gear, and the way Elektron has implemented LFO speed, is hands down, no contest what-so-ever, the worst I have ever seen.
“Simply set Speed to 5.33 to get dotted notes” :smile: (And to rub salt in that wound, if you insist on doing it the “math way”, then every math oriented person will know, that 5.33 is not 5 1/3.)

And if we go back to the year I mentioned, where I bought my Roland SH-09, Roland had the utmost kindness to put a little red flashing LED to show the LFO speed. Just like every other synth (hardware or software) I have owned since that.
Elektron has a big OLED display to their disposal but refuses to use as much as a single pixel for visualising the LFO speed on the dedicated LFO page. That is a very special kind of evil.

Anyway, got to get my printer working to print out a table for LFO speeds. Because …. Elektron.
