Metronome settings to be personal not per project
Really want:
Patterns containing only trigless locks to light up as patterns with content.
When you’re p-locking a sample the selection to start from the slot of the assigned sample not slot 1. Adjacent slots are more likely to contain related sounds
Big one for me;
Chromatic only midi note control:
Be able to switch off all midi note control EXCEPT the chromatic notes. No more accidental mutes, records etc. When you happen to hit a note out of range.
I rarely use the other midi note controls but use chromatic all the time. I’m prob not alone.
I was just thinking this last night when plocking slots!
This!
Quantise switch more easily accessible less of a menu dive. I’d like a toggle key combination.
A quantise ON indicator - even if it’s just a corner pixel.
FULL quantise option in track trig editor rather than percentage.
Armed indicator
Unless I’m missing it …
Noise gate as an effect (same as input)
Been wondering if a gated reverb can be set up like one but keep forgetting to try it…
Ability to copy page on slides, swing & rec trig (not just sample trigs)
A mode where you get confirmation prompts for all clearing actions. esp clearing patterns or the trigs in grid mode
Or just some consistency - In audio editor you get a “sure?” when clearing trim points and I think slots too. I’d like a cautious mode where all clears get a “sure?”
Yes to everything posted in this thread so far!
Gate works with Plate Rev, Mix = max, not very nice result.
I just tried with 2 tracks, 2 different slots with same sample, same settings, except one sample with inverted phase > no sound.
On track 1, add a compressor, ratio = max, decrease threshold > you have a noise gate.
I don’t understand, could you elaborate ?
I made a test, with a default track sample, and a plocked sample. I can plock individual Playback page Start and change Audio Editor Trim selection individually without problems.
I mean plocking the actual sample that trig will sound. Making it a different one from the default assigned
Edit: I think it was my use of the word ‘start’ that threw you. I’m talking about slots
I would LOOOOOVE more than 2 octaves for samples. That would be soooooo nice.
Regarding a gate - I have secretly been wishing for a gate to be added as an effect but figured no one else would want it. One could also make it a bit of a “utility” effect as in ableton (general level boost, stereo fixes, etc.).
Though these are all wishlist items for us I do think that Elektron is essentially re-introducing this as a new product and needs all the features they can add to help sell it. I like the Octa but until you see the upsides the Octa is to the un-initiated a very expensive monophonic 8 part sampler with a reputation for being inscrutable.
I totally agree with your last sentence. I basically bought the OT because I didn’t really know much about samplers and already loved the Elektron workflow. While I do love my OT, there are def. times where I feel like it’s lacking and wouldn’t necessarily recommend it to people as their first sampler.
Let’s be real, though. We’re probably only going to see small updates to the OS.
Oh man, I totally missed the REM feature in the arranger! My biggest request is for labels for the midi CCs but a workaround (not great, I know) for now would be to stick those in the arranger. Thanks!
For all machines, not just the OT: hold function and press multiple trigs on a page to select them all at one time. For setting a ‘block’ of identical p-locks. Pressing function again deselects them.
