Hmm your thought gave me the idea of selectable control all… basically if you hold the track button it works as normal control all but if you start selecting tracks while keeping track held you start a list of “control all these tracks.” Giving easy ways to effect a few parts at the same time. I feel like this would really open the control in new ways for performance.

Please Elektron! lets us reutilize the midi tracks!!
Just think of how useful it would be to use the extra midi tracks to sequence the audio tracks. So you can have 3 midi tracks mapped to single audio track. Then you can switch between them to, for example, play different melodies and such.

Excellent idea. As far as I am concerned, I find the 8 knobs to be the only non-creative limitation on the digitakt. Maybe instead of the master page they should put a kind of “performance” page where you could select different parameters from different tracks, so that you don’t have to switch between pages. Would be more useful than having the 8 volumes which nobody uses apparently.

This makes so much sense
It would need another button combo though, holding track button is allready needed for trigerless track select, func+track+ track channel maybe.
One thing I have noticed recently is that there is about a half-second delay when holding FUNC + turning the knob back the “0” (specifically for the assignable MIDI CC knobs - haven’t tried it too much with the sound engine).
This wouldn’t seem like a big deal, but if you’re trying to drop something back into the mix it really helps to be able to kill the parameter immediately - otherwise it kind of kills the groove.
Someone let me know if this has been mentioned elsewhere.
I guess I was thinking it would still triggerless track select because changing tracks doesn’t really have a negative effect in a control all type mode. You still have to let go of the track button already after switching now if you want to control 1 track. So yeah there shouldn’t be any conflicts compared to how it is used now.
experienced control all?
i would highly welcome something like dedicated control all, in case you don‘t want to control every filter of every track, what mostly doesn‘t make sense while using different filter types …
could be realised with an additinal function to choose which parameters or tracks get affected by control all.
choose tracks for being controlled by „control all“

Would love to see a second filter to cut the low frequencies, machine would really shine with this! 
record undo/trig mutes would be nice but there are work around’s for these.
over drive could have a little bit more power but its OK
everything else I can live with
Cheers and beers
new performance effect:
hold down two or more audio track keys in order to change a parameter on both tracks simultaneously. (similar to control all but more flexible)

Be able to turn off “Transport Send”
Yes, control all is great fun. That’s not what I’m talking about though. If there was a ‘Master’ page for every parameter, you could visually compare them and adjust each discreetly. For the same reason one might want a master volume page (compare and adjust), one might want to look at all pan settings, send settings, overdrive settings… at once and adjust from there. Could also provide a way to see what X automation was going on where.
It would need another button combo though, holding track button is allready needed for trigerless track select, func+track+ track channel maybe.
FUNC+Master(LFO) twice to get to a select for ctrl-all screen? Similar to the alternate SRC screen. Once there, push encoders 1-8 to target those tracks. Think the harder bit is how to communicate to the user which tracks are ctrl-all enabled. Would be easy to forget.
On the flexible-ctrl-all note… What if you could push an encoder to enable the parameter for ctrl-all and then keep pushing encoders to enable additional params and once you actually turn a single encoder, all ‘enabled’ parameters would be adjusted by that amount. That way you could, say, push enable filter cutoff, delay send and overdrive all at once and your single ctrl-all encoder turn would affect all three at once.
Extending that further, for performance, it would be pretty amazing if you could save 8 ctrl-all targets with the project. Combining these two that would be a selection of 1-8 tracks and a selection of 1-N parameter targets. Then, at anytime you could ctrl-all that particular set of track/param targets. I bet this could be done in Lemur or something.
So you basically asking for A4-like performances or a “lite” variant of OT-like scenes on a digi box …

maybe it would be better to change the tune sensitivity … it moves very fast…making it hard to tune precisely. also when pressing and turn the knob it would be better to change in tones rather than four tones as it is now.
And i would love to have envelopes repeat functionality… to the amp and filter… i have seen this to the ultranova and its a small addition but great for sound design

also mentioned some posts ago …
holding multiple tracks while controlling parameters would be a nice feature additionally to control all!

I’m missing an easy way to get rid of samples in a project when my sample pool is full. The route I know is diving into Settings (Settings/Samples/Left Arrow/View Ram/Select and Unload), but once there, you can’t listen to the samples you’re highlighting which is quite inconvenient.
I also use the sample replacement shortcut (FUNC+Assign, FUNC+YES, then choose new sample), but you have to do that one sample at a time.
Anyone knows of other fast ways to free up space in the sample pool?

awesome idea but that’d probably get mighty hot on your lap though
