Octatrack OS update wishlist

They said no Overbridge for Octatrack since a long time…

Midi control for Setup Pages, like Loop mode, Len Mode, Filter Dist, etc…

It’s a wishlist isn’t it :slight_smile:
Ok then I would suggest the time stretch and pitch shifting algorithms updated.
Artefacts very noticeable when used over an extended range

Yes of course, you can wish what you want ! :slight_smile:
I don’t hope it for Octatrack since Overbridge Release for A4/A4, as they said it was not possible. Maybe one day.

trigger conditions like on the A4, and repeat a la Intellijel Metropolis. That would be awesome, and truly polyrhythmic

If we’re dreaming here, one simple thing I’d love to have on the OT is some kind of volume ramp up/down for the retrigger parameter, so that you could use it for stuff like flams and rolls and things, or Squarepusheresque rolls where each retrigger increased or decreased in volume. That’s something I did a lot on the MPC2000 (using note repeat with the pad aftertouch controlling amplitude) and I miss it on the OT. Retrigger is great for creating stutter effects and things but for more natural, drummer-like rolls and embellishments it’s not so useful. Which is fine because that’s not what I got it for, but it would still be really nice to have.

have you tried a one-shot LFO in downward ramp shape modulating AMP? should work with one of the two ways of making the OT retrigger a sample.

Definitely my number one. Anything regarding triggers and sequencing. Great feature candidate for a software update too IMO given most of the ui and logic has been done elsewhere already.

I used Slide Trigs for this, which works - takes slightly longer to add, but it is possible.

Attack can be used too.

There’s an older & larger OT feature request thread, so this one will be closed

Continue the discussion on the other one, but keep in mind that Elektron have suggested development of the OT may be limited to bug fixes, the release of the MKii doesn’t necessarily change this position, but we can still dream …
