tl;dr The Digitakt only sends NOT1 of a trig, does not appear to be sending chords over MIDI.
Background
I have an Arturia MicroFreak with an arpeggiator. I can send a chord from Ableton to the MicroFreak via USB MIDI and the arp will play the chord. Thus, the MicroFreak is configured correctly and is capable of this.
Hardware
MicroFreak MIDI IN is plugged into Digitakt MIDI OUT.
Digitakt Configuration
- OS 1.11
- MIDI Track A has Chan set to 1 on the SRC page.
- MIDI Track A has NOT1 and NOT2 set on the TRIG page.
- MIDI Track A has no other settings, LFO is disabled etc
-
Clock send
is enabled. -
Out port func
is set to MIDI. -
Output to
is set to MIDI. -
Output ch
is set to AUTO CH. -
Track 1 Channel
is set to 1.
Expected Behaviour
Both NOT1 and NOT2 are sent to MicroFreak when trigged. MicroFreak thus would play an arp with the two notes.
Actual Behaviour
- Only NOT1/root note is sent.
- If I have MIDI Track B play another NOT1, then trigging both A and B will play an arp on the MicroFreak successfully.
- EDIT: Using MIDI Monitor I have confirmed that even with NOT2 sent, the Digitakt only sends
NOTE ON
for the root note. Furthermore, the note is wrong. I have NOT1 set to D3 and it sends D1. If I set to E3 then it sends E1. Chromatic mode does seem to send the correct notes.
Am I misunderstanding how NOT2-4 works on the DT?
