Yep, the confirmed info so far only says it’s possible to open MkI projects. Nothing has been stated about whether MkII projects will be able to be opened on an OT MkI…
And noone from Elektron has explicitly said that the processor brings the same limitations as the old one. My guess is there’s headroom for stuff like conditional trigs and they’re paying attention to see how important it is to people. And the answer is: very! Their decision could influence me to buy my first OT. Should they fork the OS and add conditional trigs to MkII (assuming it’s not possible for MkI)? Yes, definitely. As someone fairly new to Elektron, I say bring it on! Oh, and for the sake of convenience (and my budget), it would be awesome to find out in the next month or two.
