with this hardware you could easily run pure data patches as input source for the tracker.
Not to derail from the Tracker, but yeah I was in touch with the Renoise devs and they said no-way no-how to an ARM build. As for shellā¦
No touch screen could go a ways in keeping the price on this thing down. Looking forward to seeing this thing in action. Iām sure all the big Youtube guys have had this for a few weeks at least.
It looks as if theyāve chosen standard numerical values for control values instead of the traditional hexadecimal found in most trackers, Iām assuming this, but if so this will be very familiar and less confusing to new users of the tracker platform and those used to Elektron P-Locks.
daaaaammmmmnnn lol!!! you cold son lol!!!
Thereās three-digit placeholders in the area where hex would normally go ( and I believe I saw a ā100ā entered on one screenshot - which should have been 64)
Only 1 stereo output?
I guess weāre not meant for each other.
Narazie!
One simply does not go back to just a stereo pair, when one has become used to the Blackbox three / six out.
So yeah, Iām out, too. Blackbox remains safe.
only 1 stereo out , ciao I am out
To those seeing the one stereo out as a negative Iām interested to know what you were expecting from a device like this? Thatās like writing off the Digitakt for not having more outs for itās 8 track framework, as this device is also an 8 track tracker. The thingās essentially a ācomplete solutionā device, it doesnāt need much more than an L & R out.
Amiga 1200 running OctaMed: 1 pair stereo out. Donāt get scared lol!!! A lot of you kats favorite records were written and recorded:1 pair stereo out
no no! please donāt
Wasnāt so much about expectation as a want. Itās totally fine that it doesnāt have multiple outs.
The Blackbox, a very potent sampler that clocks in at about 600Euro or similar, depending on where you live and where you order it from, has three stereo outs or six mono, if you will, and an amazing sound quality to boost. The outputās just great. It has sixteen tracks and costs about the same as the Digitakt.
For further comparison, the Live has six outs, the second gen Electribes has four, the Octatrack has four if you count the cues, the Analog Rytm has like eight or something. The Toraiz has eight. Itās not unrealistic to consider that a device of this kind might have multiple outs. But itās totally fine that it hasnāt.
For my workflow, those multiple outs are essential. I sum it all into a mixer for live recording. But thatās on me. I like my flow and it helps me get shit done.
So in my case, itās just my personal experience of what I want from a device of this kind, not a truth or anything Iād say is essential or necessary. Itās preference only, of which itās totally fine that ours are different from each other.
Itās said from the beginning that this machine is a āback to the basicsā (Like Protracker) machine so I never expected it to have more outputs. I also suspect it will support mono samples/sampling only , but I do hope it supports strereo samples/sampling as well.
We need more teasers!! Come on Polyend
Which was summed to mono so you could have four tracks instead of only two stereo ones.
Class-compliant USB/sound card could provide more outputs?
Iām not writing it off completely just yet. (āNarazieā means āso longā)
I could work with 1 stereo output, if there were no alternatives.
But as I already own an OT and a BB and play live fairly often, this will likely not fit into my workflow as well as the other two.
I also like multi-tracking live jams, instead of having to record every track serially/separately.
Digitakt never stoked my interest, particularly for this reason. (Despite overbridge) (and sample length limitation!)
Itās ok to have a dedicated, solo instrument with a single output, but with a sort-of workstation, itās not so cool.
Do you know more about it? Please share
No insider knowledge, just a guess that it might be possible (eg. Tasty Chips GR-1 uses this method to allow realtime sampling).
