Should’ve put an emphasis that I’m talking about the Digi IIs.
(Rytm (and A4) already have performance modes anyway, so it never occured to me to use them with a Controller.)
I don’t have one of those myself, so can’t validate, but it looks like the answer is the same: GitHub - feamster/digitakt-midi-mcp · GitHub
I looked into both and I don’t see what any of this has to do with my question.
It means that updating the controller values on, e.g. program change triggered by DT (when you change patterns) is possible.
I have problems deceiphering your tone, it sounded to me as if you were agitated, and that agitation is directed towards me 
Some things that make midi controllers more useful:
- on Syntakt, you can set what things are Global. For example, you tick the “Internal Mixer” box and then track Volume doesn’t change when switching patterns - it remains what it was previously set to when switching patterns instead of jumping (track Volume is now global, not per pattern). There are a lot of options under the Global settings to choose from
- On Digitakt 2 which doesn’t have Global settings, you can instead use the Perform mode to achieve the same thing
