Recording quality of digitakt to daw w/ various method

Recording digitakt with overbridge in logic

Hey there. In order to use OB in logic you have to use a multi-output software instrument (the digitakt au in your case) these multi-outputs are buss tracks instead of audio tracks. In logic you can not record straight in a buss. The easiest way is to create corresponding audio tracks for your digitakt outs. Then in the the audio tracks select each buss from the multi-out instrument as an input.

I currently use Logic and has no intention to switch to Live.

With the overbridge I know I can record all 8tracks on Logic by assgining seprated audio tracks for for all 8 buses of digitakt. (Mentioned on the link above)

But when I do this the audio quality of the result is somewhat not so good, low volume and distorted.

So I was wondering what’s the best way to get the high quality sound of the digitakt? Is it the overvridge live capture? or the audio output of the device?(of course you only get L+R this way) Or some other way?

The audio should be clean as a whistle. It records at a low volume to ensure that the input signal doesn’t distort; and also to provide headroom for mixing later on (you can use the Logic gain plug in to boost volume if you find it too quiet).

But…

Some users have reported problems with Logic 10.6 - is this version you have installed? You could register a support ticket with Elektron directly

Overbridge + AR MK1 + Logic Pro = Distorted Signal

Having a problem with a distorted signal using OB with AR MK1 in Logic Pro X Versions: Logic 10.6 / OB 2.0.41.11 / AR 1.60A / Mac 10.15.7 Procedure (empty project): create software instrument track with AR multi-output create aux track for BD All plays well at this point -send BD aux to bus 1 All plays well at this point create audio track with input as bus 1 All plays well UNTIL I stop play back and start to monitor and record After that the whole AR is distorted and only sounds corre…
