Back to Space Monkey. 
Maybe fixing it would be :
Good news, DT is stereo. 
Bad news, only 4 tracks, and mono resampling.
With 8 Stereo tracks, DT is another storyā¦

100% agree we donāt know the workflow button combinations among other things
Iām not gonna pre-order until I see how it works period

if everyone would be like you, companies could sell stuff without even making it 
just kiddin, i get your point. i pre ordered it too, but i still stay pedestrian because: I once trusted Elektron blindly with the Rytm and was very disappointed at first! So much money, so less possibilities compared to the MD. I therefore dont expect anything else than the feature list says. It could have soul, but i dont count on it Expect the least - that way you cannot get disappointed in the end.

Iām still prophesizing a hard panned double track recorder trig synced workaroundā¦
Iām sort of naive that way. But ignorance is bliss, as they - whoever they are - say.

It will be possible, for sure, even if you have to record twice and keep 2 hard panned tracks for āmix bounceā.

Yep. No news about rec trigs ?
I can neither confirm nor deny anythingā¦ Only prophesizeā¦

I still donāt understand why 8 stereo sample players in 2017 is a problem. This technology is decades old and long ago devices did itā¦ and itās peanuts cpu/dsp-wise to do even double the processing the digitakt will be doing. They are using incredibly underpowered components I guess because Iām sure they know itās not difficult. Itās not an issue of complexity in that case either. A sample player becomes far less interesting to every single producer when it doesnāt support stereo filesā¦
I guess they can get around this by saying itās a ādrum computerā and most people would want to use drums mono but you can be sure the demos will sequence lots of non drum soundsā¦ hell even the in-browser ādemoā did.

Well, Iāve got several samplers that are stereo but have no panning capability. This plays mono samples out on a stereo field with proper panning.
Kinda ironic reallyā¦
Called Bax to ask if the estimated time on the website was accurate.
The guy on the line said that the system says they expect to have them in stock next week.
Obviously I asked is that info came from the supplier(as in elektron) and he said yes.
So not sure if its actually true
haha

wondering if there will be loop chopping options, not time stretching so much, something more like a loop slicing option for a tricky kind of loop retiming without warping.
I think there will be some serious loop trickery on the DT.
I think thatās why it is mono samples, avoids headaches with crossfading algos and all manner of zero point glitching issues.

Iām thinking so too. Itās so much easier to mix mono over stereo anyways. I know I shouldnāt but I have money saved up just in case.

No audio slice confrimed. I think you could always use sample chains though.

Iām wondering if anyone has an update on the development of the DT/AR sample transfer app.
could elektron chime in here - itās been a while since we have heard anythingā¦
Is there a release date?
I donāt think that Elektron has stated an expected release date for this new app.
It seems improbable that it would be released before the Digitakt starts shipping in May.

Mono is fine by me, I record and sample in mono anyway. Everything is panned in the DAW for mastering. When sampling a stereo source into the DT you would have to feed it one channel at a time to maintain its stereo image I assume.

I figured out the the stereo dilemma. Get two DTs
