Do trigless trigs work when not using the internal sequencer?

Trigless trigs behavior when sequencing elektrons externaly

So I tried trigless trigs while sequencing from external via MIDI (the idea was to have different locks track length) and discovered that unfortunately it doesn’t work on AR (MK2), but works on Monomachine with no problem. Searched through the forum a bit and found same problem topic on AR, also seems that it works on A4. Can anybody confirm this? What about other elektron boxes? Is it made like this on some purpose? UPDATE: Doesn’t work on : AR M:C Digitakt Syntakt Works on: Monomachi…

WTF Locks?

I ran into something odd, and made a short video about it. Basically when an Elektron box is receiving midi, you can hold trigs on that track to make different p-locks active while it’s playing. Is this a bug? Something weird with my setup? Common knowledge? It was a surprise to me, and I’m now planning to use (and abuse it ) as a performance tool. [WTF Locks?]

These two topics go over what can be done with external sequencing.
