Still 128 sample slots ?
128 for each of the 8 banks

Wonder to what extent 400mb ram is an impediment to multi sampling (e.g loading multiple multi sampling kits to for use in different tracks).
Presumably elektron is aware of the hardware limitations for specific features. For me 4gb of ram does not seem to much to ask given to cost of these boxes, so you have to wonder if this is preplanned obsolescence.
It would be useful to get the opinion of someone with the technical knowledge to speculate

Very nice Elektron 
Quite the enhancements!
- Like the Cond Trig âall loops exceptâ
- Wish Midi Retrig was there.
Can anyone who has had hands on answer if the soft coating is on the buttons still?
[not that I can afford one tho]

Oh! I donât think it was mentioned before but new trig conditions were added:
- /A:B â trigs shuts up once every B times starting from the Ath time
- Last and /Last â plays when another Pattern is cued
The first I really wanted, the last Indidnt even know I needed it 
Oh. @palm weâre aligned ^^

Except looking at the DT2 manual, in the section on sample management the screen shot has âAuto-Previewâ and a tick-box square at the bottom of the menu stack. Strangely though the manual doesnât seem to mention this âAuto-Previewâ function anywhere (unless I missed it⌠was reading through late last night).
I feel tou but with the OG you have 40mb i think and tou can do a lot with

I couldnât have been more relieved that the box is the same dimensions as the gen 1, some genius came up with these measurements. Perfect size to hold or sit on a desk along with other gear, I wish a lot of other makers adopted the same profile.
The fact that I wonât have to buy new stands is priceless, aside from the great feature set. I would have liked to see the price not increase but I know that theyâve been looking for a way to do that for some time now, I guess that there is now some justification for that.

granted, however they do have a sample slicing feature, it would be good for everyone who uses it to be able to fine tune the slices at least

I wonder if you have a new laptop now, or if you took your own advice and only bought a desktop 
Being a little cheeky, but I would guess that for most people the life cycle of modern elektron devices is similar to a laptop anyway, with better things coming out every 5-7 years. There are of course the exceptions like MM/MD that are now classics. IDK, an easily replacible battery seems like the best of both worlds, but E seems to have bad luck with batteries at this point.

Maybe we have to do a mass request for the better sample edit, scroll and zoom, just like OT
I like my OG anyway and if i buy the MK2 iâll give it to my daughter⌠i try tu put her off the screens but iâts a hard stuff

itâs exactly the same size as a digitakt
For those of us planning to sell our Digitakt 1 for this, whatâs gonna be the best way to backup project files to then import into the new one?

Digitone and Digitakt MK1 cost 949,00 EUR on the elektron website
I think the with the Digitakt MK2 for 100⏠more is a better deal
perhaps? but when there was only the original digitakt, did it seem like a poor deal? this is all a matter of perspective. something new is here, itâs better in terms relative to the fact that it does more. it âdidnât existâ officially until yesterday, so if youâre saying the old version was overpriced thatâs an opinion that some people have, and have expressed.
for me, Iâd like to have seen the price stay the same, then it would indeed be a better deal than the prior generation.
