I’m trying to send program changes to my Digitakt while using Overbridge on Ableton. In the manual it says:
‘‘You can send MIDI notes to the plugin on MIDI channel 16 to request pattern changes on the Elektron de-vice. Like SONG POSITION sync, this works in a best effort manner. The sequencer will change to the new pattern after the current pattern has played through to the end.’’
So what I did - in MIDI config set ‘‘prog chg in ch’’ to 16 just in case. Then I created a MIDI clip in the DT MIDI track, where I have C-2 triggered. The problem is that this just triggers a sound from the Digi. I also don’t understand how to set the output channel on this track to 16 since it has audio (and thus doesn’t have MIDI out options in Ableton).
Hey I am in the same situation have you find a solution ? This doesn’t seem a thing to hard but I can’t figure it out and don’t find so much information on the internet …
About the “midi out” issue you are talking about, I have found a solution : to get the midi out option on a midi track, you have to get a full empty midi track, I just had a utility and a EQ8 (both turned off) on that track and so it became a kind of hybrid midi-audio track and you don’t have access to “midi out” anymore.
Your post is quite old please if you have found a way to get pogram change from ableton to overbridge please share it !
Hi! Thank God for the email notifications
To be honest after getting no replies here I thought that there is no point in me trying to figure it out.
I will try it again though in a few weeks and report back.
