This thread had reached a level where I can’t tell who is trolling who anymore. All I know is some people have complained about not having overbridge so much that it is hard to take the topic seriously any more. If you can’t make music because you don’t have multitrack best get rid of the device or be willing to wait. Try to use the tools how they currently work, we all want multitrack recording but if you can’t make music without it you probably are taking yourself and your music a bit too seriously. I dunno try to have fun or something.

They even added a compressor to the digitakt so you don’t even have to process your sounds anymore. 
Also, @drcode calling virtue signalling on someone is a form of virtue signalling in itself.

The main point of this thread now is to just make sure SOMEBODY posts something every few minutes, so that when Simon can’t sleep at 2 in the morning and checks the www.elektronauts.com/latest page out of curiosity, this thread will always be at the very top, so he knows he has no escape, and this will haunt him.
(BTW, I’m totally just trolling… I barely know who Simon is and just got my DT a week ago and love it, regardless of the software limitations)

@drcode OM posts a lot and I think anyone who reads here a lot would say that he’s just a nice guy. Don’t really think he’s virtue signalling. Some people are just nice. He’s a bit eccentric but I’ve come to understand that’s because he’s from a different dimension

Did someone just accept and apologise on Elektronauts? Good lad! I predict the release of overbridge tomorrow morning shortly followed by pigs flying by lunchtime

The difference that OB will make is using the DT to make songs rather than just beats.
It’s amazing but I need it to be productive, nothing I’ve made on the DT has made it on to finished songs as of yet as faffing about recording in limits creativity. (Clock sync/ midi jitter)
The stuff I’ve made on hardware alone is great but lacks the nuance and polish of something finished in a computer daw.
I jus wanna record it in, eq it , work my magic & be happy

Elektron has only recently gotten into software they’ve never been know for it maybe first groove box ever? Because there are a million other brands you could’ve chose if software was a first & foremost process of your workflow regardless ok they should have it by now they said they would but they don’t so sell it or return value is good both ways go purchase another machine with a software first workflow Ableton is the best sample manipulator in the world you can get a push I think as far as samples go if you are a software guy it’s silly to not have a push with Ableton

Again you’re not able to understand this simple issue. What’s wrong with you?
I own Ableton and Push 2 already and HOW I make music is,again, NOT YOUR business.
I choose my gear based on specs and sound and build quality. So because multitracking wasn’t possible back then one should not be mad over something that was clearly advertised when buying the product? Basically you’re saying that I shouldn’t be mad when I buy me a new big ass curved flat tv but there is no remote control included and the company says"you’ll get your remote soon, meanwhile you can watch movies anyway." Lemme guess: You would say " looool, ppl back then had no remotes, stand up and switch channel on the tv instead lol lol lol".
People had no cars back in time, go with the bike dude. I really can’t hear all these lame arguments anymore.
Did you ever talk to guys who made records in the 80’s or 90’s? I have. And the consensus is that they would have used modern technology back then if it would have been around.
Oh, and I’m whether a software guy (as you think) nor a hardware guy. I’m a hybrid guy.
For the record, so that you get it for once and for all…
Do I think the guys at Elektron are bad people? NO
Do I make music with my Elektrons without OB? YES
You got it finally??? If yes, thank you. If no, do your lol or whatever…

I have to say, this reminds me of when I bought Reaktor. It was the first version they advertised as being vst compatible. I spent a lot of time being upset, trying to get it to work perfectly with fruityloops. It took a few years to really get it running flawlessly, so I just got fed up with it and stopped using it as a vst and just used the internal recorder to make samples…
Not the exact same situation, but OB is a big step in tech for hardware. Jumps in paradim take a lot of time at first. The real bummer thread will probably be when OB is released and it will require the users to have patients until it works to their expectations… If that ever happens. I have my doubts.
No excuses, just boring reality.

I have high expectations for Overbridge in the long run and I am willing to be patient. I use the MKi version and it worked flawlessly until I upgraded to High Sierra and the USB drivers no longer communicated properly. I know Elektron is capable of delivering because I’ve experienced it pre-High Sierra.
Elektron is writing their own drivers. I can’t remember exactly what company/where I heard it but I know companies pay others to develop drivers. I am not knowledgable enough to say anything about contract software development, but I also know that a lot of companies used to make their own power supplies until they started buying cheaper ones and just throwing them in the box. This is a mentality that exists outside the hardware/software divide.
I’m glad they are keeping this one at home, even if it takes time. Waiting sucks, but hard decisions like that are why I will pay more for their hardware.

That sounds really interesting. I am looking forward to Elektron getting someone to do pr. Maybe some background on the difficulties, or even what making a product like OB entails. Maybe if people knew more about how the sausage is made, they could empathize with Elektron’s situation. Just out of curiosity, @Highways, did your OB enabled boxes sync solidly with your DAW before the drivers became unusable? I’m on Win10, but I am just curious how well OB worked in the past.
