This is the part where certain brand loyalists try to point out how stupid other commentators are, right on cue and as described. my point is that’s fine, it might even help squash the conversation in the near term, and in the end this forum will be left with the trollers talking to each other as others leave the brand.
In reply to your comparison which attempts to make it seem that I am a dumb amateur who doesn’t know the market: the DFAM is an analog device, of which I have 10+ similar analog devices with no patch memory let alone project storage etc. following my previous analogy that’s like comparing a motorcycle to a car: different expectations.
this comment makes you like the car dealer in my anecdote who pretends I should have known my windshield wipers were on a hand crank, or that I am somehow stupid because a motorcycle doesn’t have motorized windshield wipers.
Digitakt is digital device with pretty robust sample, patch and sequence storage capabilities. I am not asking for a song mode, I knew it did not have one. I am pointing out that the pattern chaining mode that is already there was a feature I mistakenly expected would save to a project, just like almost every other parameter associated with a project can be. I am not mad or trying to gripe: I can just send the thing back if I feel I can’t live without that feature.
Where the problem arises: When I look at the video Cenk did in 2017, he shows and calls out the pattern chaining feature, but glosses over the “doesn’t save with project” when the question comes up at the product release. that is the basis of my “car dealer shows and points to the wipers, fails to mention the hand crank” analogy. Based on that video I thought the unit would meet that expectation; I can see how other people who aren’t stupid amateurs could make that mistake too. I was wordy in my comment, so perhaps that gets mis-read as pissed off: I’m not, I was just tying be specific. But I am pointing to something valid to the discussion that if Digitakt is paying attention to the thread might help. Also other potential buyers might read the thread and my Level of detail might help them understand the nuance of the issue before they purchase with an incorrect expectation. Peace, I’m out, so don’t bother trolling anymore, I’m done with this thread.
