What am i doing wrong? (DK and Volca Fm)

Elektron Gear Digitakt

Am I doing something wrong or can you not use the volca’s touch keyboard to trigger notes in the digitakt. I have everything hooked up correctly as far as cables. I have them linked on the same channel, though on the digitakt i have it linked on the track rather than from the midi config menu.

I saw someone post something similar to this regarding a midi keyboard and he/she wasn’t aware of the live recording mode. I’ve tried to record live as well and it still won’t record.

I’m Just wondering bc it’s harder to play certain chords on the digitakt’s mini keyboard and i would like to trigger certain tracks using the DK’s sequencer. All help is apreciated

Using Volca to trigger anything on the digitakt is not possible as it has no midi out.

You can buy a mod on ebay that will let you do this. (I think)

To piggy back off that, I’ve modded the volca beats, and volca sampler to send midi. it’s definitely not hard to do. It’s like 6 solder points.
