Quick tutorial on proper volumes on the Digitakt

[mzero]

@leoparde

the values you can set regarding volume (track volume, sample volume, overdrive, master knob) are of unknown value

Not totally, the gain structure has been worked out:

Gain Structure (sample level, amplitude volume, track level...)

There are so many ways to affect sound level on the Digitakt: Trig velocity, Sample level, Amp volume, and Track level. Which one should I plock? Do they have different ranges? effects? I set out to find out… and did! First, the sound architecture diagram in the manual is lacking some detail. Turns out, the gain stages are in the pipeline like this: Sample Level & Trig Velocity Overdrive Amplitude Volume Filter Track Level Pan Delay & Reverb Sends Mixer The first gain section is a pair o…
