I’m been lucky enough to be selected for beta testing Overbridge.
So far I only did a few tests, and it seems to be working well - but I’m so used to the Digitakt’s main output (DACs, compressor, effects sends) that the clean audio coming from the OB individual channels sound a bit dull.
So I was thinking, it would be a good production excercise trying to recreate the DT’s sound ITB - processing the master output, individual channels, send effects (maybe even mapping DT’s send encoders to Ableton’s FX sends? I’m not sure if that’s a good idea though, since I don’t think the DT sends it’s values when changing patterns unless you move the encoders…)
I was wondering if anyone el se was considering doing something like this? it would be a nice way to have a somewhat-similar result ready for mixing once you finish recording
try one aux send for reverb, one aux for delay, and a compressor on your master fader. use the faders in ableton to change the volume of each track. to take the sound beyond what the digitakt can do, insert fx on individual channels, like EQ, compression, and creative fx.

well here’s a little test… it’s not perfect, but I created the session, recorded and did some super basic mixing in 30 min… first you listen a loop from Digitakt’s main out, then I crossfade in Ableton to the individual output mix… then I go back and forth a few times.
you can tell the difference, but I think that with some proper mixing it can sound pretty close (and better too)
