Ping Pong Sample Playback Trick

[kryten42]

Hey fellow 'naughts…

Inspired by time stretching on the Digitakt using LFO, and a post in the ‘Digitakt Feature Request’ topic, i’ve found a trick to do ping-ponging on sample playback, or at least I haven’t seen anyone else do this as yet. So here are the settings to get you up and running and a video of it in action. Hope you find it useful and get inspired to go and try it out for yourself…

I’ve discovered this is now sadly broken in 1.50 with the new machines

Will file a bug report…

Sample Ping pong 2.0 solution for > V1.40

Bidirectional Looping Digitakt 2

I did get another solution without using the LFO to change direction. I’ll try to simply explain the steps here: Have an 8 step track Set sample for FWD.L with release set to infinite trig condition of 1st on the 1st step Step 3 set as trigless trig (yellow) and P-Lock REV.L Step 7 set as trigless trig (yellow) and P-Lock FWD.L That’s basically it, hit play to start the seq running and you can then move the start and end/loop points of the sample, mess with pitch etc, adjust the speed to x2 …

really like this trick. there is still no ping - pong playback on digitakt 2. maybe someone has managed to find a way to do it and is willing to share?
