Digitakt II Feature Requests

[omra]

We would like to see the Keyboard mode being upgraded. like on the Digitone II we should be able to lock the keyboard scale and root note per track or pattern basis. and why not having the chord modes on Midi machines.
All the Best.

look it is easy create a Kit for your song with the right volumes and load it to the patterns that you want to use for this Song that’s it.

Just want to second this. I would love Elektron to provide a simple means of making everything sound lofi without, as currently, having to simulate this per-track by editing things like filter width, bit reduction etc. There needs to be something at the compressor level (presumably) to just make this happen. I’m considering the DTII against the Lofi XT and this is a key differentiator.

I don’t see any sense in this, especially since you yourself described scenarios of how this can be achieved using LFO tune/filter/reveb/bitrd…and there is more control in this

but the new wow/flutter or tape-style effects are welcome)))

by the way, it would be nice to have presets for effects or lfo pages

[mitya33]

Well, the LFOs can do a lot of things. Like simulate chorus, or glissando. But they still added those as explicit features in the DT2. Lofi simulation on the DT isn’t achieved only via LFOs (also filters, SSR etc.) but even if it was, doing it per-track is laborious vs. a “lofi mode” switch that sits at the end of the signal chain like the compressor.

I’d like Kits to load samples into the same banks they were in when the Kit was saved. At the moment, loading a Kit always places all samples in Bank A.

Because there’s no functionality for moving samples after they’ve been loaded, being very careful about where they are loaded is the only way to stay on top of sample management within a project, but Digitakt actively makes this a chore.

Without these two limitations I would feel a lot more encouraged to actually use Kits.

That would mean to relaod the kit in each pattern every time you want to change the volume of a track in a song, what I meant was the possibility to have a mixer that works like a real mixer, with a fader that sets the volume for a track in the whole song

[Klovys]

I agree. Kit saving/loading is not a meaningful remedy to how tedious it is to work across patterns for the same song. So much back and forth is required just to get parameters in sync.

I would love the ability to select a set of patterns to be in sync with each other, such that they all share the same kit state at all times. Kit Perform can serve that role when jamming but it isn’t suitable for arranging/composing.

Request: Maximum tempo to 400.0bpm
To achieve that double bpm trick with the sequencer
