Good idea! Iā€™ll see if I can set up something later today!

Iā€™m currently thinking about switching to an AR for doing my beats, but the lack of finetuning startpoint is keeping me from it. Do you still like the OT over the DT?

Thanks so much for the mention!

Sadly, I also let my DT go this year. Great machine, but I found myself using Serato Sample, Logic, and Kontakt more and more. Still lurking as well! I hope people keep the thread alive. :sparkles::loud_sound:

Well, youā€™re the og of this thread, so of course I mentioned you haha.

Good to hear everyoneā€™s still making music, be it on different machines/software. For me, the DT is still my desert island machine, i cant imagine ever selling it, even though I sometimes envy the mpc/machine possibilities and pads.

Iā€™m preparing a boom bap beat tape using only this dream team. Sampling with akai s20 to get the lofi sound and resampling and sequencing in takt. This duo is amazing! Hope to share it soon!

Sadly Iā€™m in the ā€œSold my DTā€ boat too! Hard times meant it had to go. Iā€™m still using Ableton with my Maschine though so beats are still being made. I hope to replace the DT some day as it was my absolute favorite piece of kit of all time.

Sad to hear you had to sell it, your videos were great! Hope youā€™ll replace it one day.

Hey man,

I have a handful of Digitakt only tracks that I donā€™t think I ever posted here before, so I figured I might as well share a couple instead of letting them sit on the hard drive.

This is I believe the first track I ever made on the DT. Recorded straight from DT to a little Boss digital 8-track player. No post processing at all.

(Make me miss my Digitakt)

Dope man, working with the DT is different from another gears / DAW. You can make things you never thinked with a DAW and thatā€™s cool for beatmaking original tracks.

Never look back, if you sold DT itā€™s over, but maybe Elektron will bring a new sampler soon.

Dope! Your stuff often sounds a bit like a modern/electronic version of the wu-tang sound.
