Hi there,
I am trying to use Ableton to control my Digitone via overbridge.
I can route my external midi keyboard to the digitone and if I play or record a sequence, it only seems to send it to the track 1, even using different midi channels it only send sequences to track 1. anyone knows how I can route midi channels to different tracks on the digitone? Ideally sequencing via ableton to all different tracks.
thanks
I can not update via transfer ā¦ the download remains in the middle ā¦ solutions ?? : |
Same problem here. Upgraded from the previous OB beta. Neither OB engine or OB control panel sees my A4. I feel stupid because before updating I though ādonāt try to update, most things are working right now and youāll just waste your timeā. Tried a couple of reboots and different order of turning things on like shutting down the engine turning on the a4 and reopening the engine etc. but all to no avail. The version of osx Iām running doesnāt really have any software or driver specific settings under privacy & security, suspect thatās a catalina thing?
Full specs:
A4 MKI os 1.40
Mid 2014 mbp running osx 10.12.6
A4 on dedicated usb port
Edit;
Reverted to previous ob version and A4 is recognized again.
Just as a quick aside or whatever; itād be nice if the ob installer would feature a little pop-up or whatever before you press install reminding you that your elektron deviceās usb shouldnāt be connected during installation of ob especially since the ob manual isnāt bundled in with the ob download neither are any installation instructions. Itās a bit āthereās some vital info to ensure a correct installation, best put it away from anything to do with the installer.ā
I of course forgot this during the first install then remembered this info when seeing that ob wasnāt seeing anything, so went through the uninstall/install process again (man thatās a lot of rebooting) this time with my a4 disconnected. Didnāt solve the issue though.
I spent a lot of time trying to connect my new Digitone to my Macbook Pro(Late 2019, macOS 10.15.2) to use the outputs to record what I created and than mix it in DAW.
What I did:
I installed the 2.0.30 beta (several times).
I enabled Overbridge on my Digitone
I updated from 1.2.1 to the Firmware 1.2.1 that is linked here.
I connected, disconnected the device serveral times, I rebooted my mac several times.
There is no ādriver authorisationā in my system settings, that I can allow.
I need to use a āhubā, because the newer macbooks donāt have normal USB Ports anymore.
What ever I do, Overbridge does not see the Digitone.
Sidenote: I tried to use Transfer to send over the firmwareupdate to the digitone, it didnāt work. I choose the right Midi Ports, click connect, the device shows up in the device list with status āConnectedā but no transfer-Window is shown.
Really frustrated, because the direct-Audio Recording via Overbridge is one of the selling points for me 
A lot people mention to install an older OB Version. I am not able to find it here. Anyone so kind and provide me a link?
Thanks.
Got myself an old iMac 21.5 mid 2011. high Sierra, 12gb i5 2.5 quad cores , ssd and hdd , and finally I have OB working, 14 tracks 24bit (DT 27ms latency and A4 mk1 35ms ).
Iāll get asp 800 today, then i will test this two machines plus 10 audio card inputs,

try sysex editor https://www.snoize.com/SysExLibrarian/
about allowing elektron driver, i had to do it on high sierra, i think you are missing something out. This is what i did on high sierra
https://www.denondj.com/kb/2437/
if you hadnāt done anything like that, i believe that should be your problem.
I did the exact same thing. During the installation I was asked to permit the installation, I did so, than restarted. I mentioned that point, because the Overbridge points out, that I might have to allow the driver to work 
I used SysExLibrarian to upload the Firmware, that worked great (after some tweaking to make it faster).
I hoped to find the last OB Version (2.0.20?)
Will try an older macbook for it. It is mainly to record the audio, so it should not have to do muchā¦
I donāt know if i understand you correctly, but permitting driver to install, and permitting driver to work afterwards are two separate things you need to do.
Thanks! That did it! I did some searching and found out a: where to find installed drivers, b: find out, what drivers are loaded and after I found out, that the overbridge-driver was indeed non loaded c: how to load them manually.
After I did so, overbridge runs fine! Whooo, I am soo happy, as this is exactly what I wanted. Super easy multitrack recording. For celebration I ordered a Digitakt, because I need a drum machine and that finalized the decision!
Thanks again for your help and the hints!
Yeah, me too.
Iāve been waiting for it to be fixed.
Still PB & MW do not get sent over USB to Digitone. What a bummer!
Use āExternal Instrumentā instrument. Set it like that:
āMIDI Toā Elektron Digitone
Channel Ch. 2, 3 or 4
However audio will go to the track with the Digitone VST plugin
Iāve found a workaround.
If you add āExternal Instrumentā insturment in Ableton and chose in āMIDI Toā āElektron Digitoneā - instead of " Digitone" then data to the Digitone hardware is sent over its USB virtual midi port rather than through the Digitone VST and PB & MW do work in that scenario.
hehe, you are welcome 
i know how it feels,
this is the first time OB is actually working for me, and itās feels great!
I should trust elektron programers more, it takes some time, but they are getting there, end now when i actually had a chance to try it out in my studio, i get why is taking so long, it is really big endeavor, and well worth the effort:muscle:
Iāve got the 2.0.24.11 installer but Iām not sure if itās okay to share a link?
No Problem, got it working with the latest release
Hi. Iām on Catalina with latest Overbridge beta using Digitone and Live 10. My MIDI controller is an Arturia Keylab. All works well, except I canāt figure out how to set the midi routing so that I can play each Digitone track 1-4 with the controller keyboard to trigger the patch. Track 1 is all I can trigger - despite changing the midi channel on the Keylab. The Overbridge AU doesnāt allow setting of the midi routing so Iām a bit lost. Iām sure Iām being an idiot - but can anyone help?
Iāve posted the exact same problem. Did you get a solution?
Works for me, even with a Virus TI attached in addition. Possibly itās just the usual: we didnāt test it so we canāt take any guarantees.
Although the Virus TI was very unstable in the beginning and suddenly started working. As there is no real reason for that I donāt trust itā¦
Have you checked the midi channel settings? You set the incoming channel there.
On the DN? Theyāre set to 1/2/3/4 for the corresponding track.
