Help Digitakt Ableton wobbly sound

Hello everyone!I have been playing around with digitakt for awhile ,but just recently wanted to record something into ableton live 10, I setup the midi track and all the other 8tracks and the input seems fine, but when I record my beat some tracks happen to sound different to what I preview on digitakt itself, the sound record very wobbly and with less detail than I hear them on digitakt,

any tips for why or how to fix this

do you mean audio or are you trying to record digitakt midi into ableton and then play it back ?

did you mute the internal sound tracks/triggers when playing from ableton

Your question is confusing to me so - I will break it down again
Hooked up digitakt to ableton, recorded my stuff into ableton and then when i listen to what has been recorded some sounds sound different than I made them on digitakt ( i believe it could be some delay or lag or some sound not recording in properly making it wobbly)

Were you sending midi clock from digitakt to ableton?

Try sending clock from ableton to digitakt.
Turn warp off.

Remember abelton default setting auto warps long samples, usually on the pitch setting. clock variation means if ableton is slave, its clock will drift, your recordings will “wobble” when played back with warp on.

Its all in the ableton manual.

Or if you’re just dumping stems out then use the Digitakt standalone app to record these. See if that changes anything.

Yeah im sending clock from digitakt

The standalone app - you mean the overbridge? For me it has no record functionality and I use overbridge 2 - its just a interface with all the knobs for me!

Im not sure if midi or audio - i guess its both, i just want to record the tracks as they are on my digitakt,

And yeah, i did mute the tracks on digi, that is how I discovered that my recording sounds a bit different than what i was hearing on digitakt

Yes, it has, you have to press the tape cassette in the upper right area.

Yeah @Fotopaul posted where to click. Check out the manual for more info or watch the OB2 video with Cenk.


Somehow I dont have the casette tape, any tips?

This doesn’t look like the Digitakt application but rather Overbridge loading Digitakt inside your DAW. You need to load up an application called Digitakt. It would have been installed when you installed OB (I know on Windows it gave the option to, not sure about Mac yet). Try re-running the installer and adding it if it’s not there.
