One of the greatest handicaps is there´s no (easy) way to copy banks/parts/patterns from one project to another. Thats why effective project management is just impossible…
So, Elektronwizards, please, please, please… There´s a really big room for impovement.
Way too many to list. Here is a couple, which as far as I am concerned are bugs.
a) Parts Send/Recevie midi Simple, when changing Parts, send Midi CC; likewise, be able to change Part via midi CC.
b) Multiple Track Mute/Unmute Sending multiple track mutes/unmute comands via Midi when using [FUNC] + [TRACK #] Works on a single track, but does not send X CC’s when X tracks are muted/unmuted.
Both of the above would make using two Octatracks together a lot easier. a) would allow Part synchronisation, whilst b) would allow the ability to control mutes on slave OT from Master OT.
Give that a play/test, it might help you with copying stuff around. Backup all your work first obviously, and be aware that it won’t copy the samples around between projects.
tons of good ideas …
but what about easy little implementation from the digitakt …
Like being able to copy/condition/etc… more than ONE step ( trig ) at a time … just like on the DT … and also like on the DT, being able to copy an audio track to a midi track … at least the trigs … i dont understand why its not possible …
Joking aside: all you can hope for is a bugfixing update, because the OT got declared “feature complete” a very long time ago.
An Elektron employee has already confirmed that at least the problem with the page LEDs colors (hard to see the active page) will be fixed. Maybe they take the time to fix a few other minor bugs, too, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.
Toast 8 pieces of bread simultaneously. Use the slices function to turn one loaf into up to 64 slices. Randomize and extend patterns with crumbditional trays. Disable the 2nd law of thermodynamics on the fly to allow reverse toasting via the rate control - no more burnt bits!
Elektron, get with it. We’ve all been asking for these features since at least 2015.
A small thing - it would be great if default or favourite Trig mode could be set in the personalise menu. I use the Quick Mute mode all the time so it would be convenient to have it as default.
Is this the place for requests POST 1.40 ? I have a couple: Tracks retain last selected trig mode. And save sample to current slot list. I’m still happy about 1.40!
