Uploading .syx packs to the digitakt via Transfer App

Elektron Gear Digitakt
#1

Hi all, this is probably a stupid question but hoping for an answer nonetheless. I just got my digitakt and finished uploading my samples and some Elektron Sound Packs. One of them (Elektronos Vol 1) is a .syx file and in the instructions it says just to move to the Digitakt just like .wav files. I drag it in, and it says complete but then there’s no files in the +drive. Is there a step I’m missing (and thusly the directions are missing)?

Thanks in advance for the help, Ben

Elektronos Vol. 1 is for the Analog Four, an instrument that doesn’t play samples. The .syx file is a MIDI System Exclusive file used to transfer patches and the like. It is exclusive to a specific instrument - in this case, the Analog Four, so it won’t work with the Digitakt.

Hey thanks, this was clearly a case of me putting the pack into the wrong folder after I downloaded these. Thanks for the kindness in response. Cheers.
