I guess that is the dark side Cenk mentioned on Monday :grinning:

I think you’ll really enjoy the Digitakt. I finally got to dive into it today. It took a minute to get acquainted with a few things, but I’m loving it so far.

My Digitakt just arrived. Only got time to make sure it turns on though :frowning: Much sadness!

Lol! She is right, I should’ve hidden it but I left it out by the door where I opened it.

So I end up super drunk last night and have possibly broken my wrist after getting rugby tackled (don’t ask). Means a hungover hospital trip for me and still no digitakt play time.

The suspense is killing me!

I cannot believe - it’s shiiiiiiipppped! Should arrive on wednesday, crazy! :sunglasses:

got mine today without the booklet not that it matters or does it?

May I ask what your order number is?

Anything in the booklet is in the manual. Booklet has just enough to get started but nothing in depth.

sorry if this is a dumb question. So I’ve got a Digitakt, fresh out of the box… should I update it to OS1.01, or wait for the 1.02 update (and use the unit as is) ?

You’ll be covered should anything go wrong on account of any os issues, but if you are testing the latest os then you may be able to spot a bug that nobody else finds … so the price of the odd issue in the meantime is that you may help yourself out if you work in an atypical way to others

ps: you should really have posted this in another thread [edit: since moved]

it already has 1.01 on it. you can see the os number when you turn it on. have some fun!

it seems most ship with 1.01, some with 1.0

mine shipped from elektron as a pre-order w/ 1.01. i didn’t know 1.0 ever existed for the public but it seems some had it on there.

mine shipped with 1.00

Not going to happen… Otherwise where does it end? Free DT for everyone who went through the same/worse when OT was released? Anyone that orders a unit before there are reports from other users takes that risk. It’s the trade off for gripping an early unit… No one was forced to buy early or is being forced not to return their unit. Frustrating but that’s how Elektron will see it.

Elektron will fix the main issues pretty quick I’d imagine…

Wow… To be frank, this many bug reports shows to me they released this way too soon. Never seen this happen before to any instrument other than…

I’m sure they get it sorted, but imho some sort of compensation is in order to early adopters. They basically dropped a flawed unit at a lot of doorsteps.

Comparing a 80 euro plugin to a 700 euro unit to give away is a bit of a leap :wink:

Yup but the the ā€˜compensation’ thing would open a big can of worms. Won’t happen…
