I live in NY but always do business with them. I started with Novamusik now Kraft. Love those guys!!!

This would be amazing, but Iām having a hard time imagining how it wouldnāt be a mess UI wise, which seems like a major focus of the DT.
apologies if this has already been coveredā¦ regarding the inputs, can we simply use a 1/4" adapter for a 3.5 mm (1/8") male plug (in) to āsample from consumer electronic devices featuring a 3.5mm headphone jackā, or is a different type of cable (to convert to USB) required?

huh
I agreeā¦
Been pondering the same choice, MPC Live vs Digitakt.
The MPC just seems to do it allā¦
butā¦
There is just something raw and gritty about the Digitakt. I like raw and gritty. Itās deep but at the same time simple. And it just looks fun to use which is very important to me because I make music for funā¦

Do you guys think the unit will arrive without OB, like AH?
Yep. Same here. I think I want both though.
How I want to use them:
MPC = My main DAW in a box (multitracker for my synths, guitar, and bass; vocals); looper for guitar, bass and synths; practice tool for playing guitar and analyzing my timing; finger drumming; straightforward and powerful external sequencer with multiple midi ports (audio from external gear being sequenced will be run back in for recording); loads of sampling time so perfect for vocals or long samples; polyphonic chromatic sampling (chords)
Digitakt = creative and simple sampler for manipulating audio in ways that the MPC doesnāt lend it to; quick step style drum sequencing and pattern creation with little menu diving (so perfect for getting ideas for tracks going); sequencer for external gear in a way that the MPC doesnāt lend itself to (trigs, probability, parameter locks, etc).
Edit: I think both are going to be classics.

In the Videos it is said that you can get the 8 Tracks into the Daw via Overbridge. But how about the Effect returns/MasterChannel. Is there an Overbridge track for that too?
if Im not mistaken DT uses usb 2.0 and can handle more than 8 tracks but they havenāt released the final figures yet as they were currently testing the bandwidth.
id be hopeful itās OB might have both master channel and inputs L & R. seems logical and very possible.
I dunno about fx channel tho. I doubt it.

I would assume we get the Master Channel where the Effects are routed to and the 8 tracks seperate. I hope so at least.
Maybe this is the reason for the mono only sample capabilities? Hoefully this will allow all 8 mono tracks plus fx, master and inputs tracks. Thatās 14 tracks!
Trig-less trigs that activate according to certain conditions already exist in the newer machines.
Now, if there was a way to enable p-locks on an active trig conditionally, that would be NextLevel.png! I think thatās what phaelam was talking about.
Imagine a trig on step 14. You want it to sound each time itās triggered, but you only want the p-lock (say, filter value of 23) active every 4:4 loops.
Iām already blown away by the variety I get from one pattern with conditional-trigs. Combine them with conditional-p-locks!?! I need a cold shower.

Maybe you could have your normal trigger in step 14, your conditional p-locked one on step 15 and adjust microtiming to have it close to step 14?
