well I’ve only seen reports of it being low via the audio inputs until now, so I was thinking usb sampling could hold me over, but if the issue is via inputs, usb, and internal resampling we’re gonna need some clarification
Not sure how to replicate this, or if anyone else has experienced it, but while playing with global mutes, I started to experience some strange behavior where I was unable to access page loops, and then at some point my entire pattern for all tracks was wiped. Pretty weird, and not a good experience if you are trying to play something live or have forgotten to save your work.
This is a topic for users to report bugs, not enquire if they exist !
as quoted, i already answered this for you a few days ago
The other samples recorded internally are all apparently normalised, so theoretically, they can’t get ‘louder’ without invasive processing
The News topic on the device is where to ask about the specs
Are the Transfer speeds issues acknowledged by Elektron at this point ? I know they’ve said they’re working on the crashes/freezes/file system corruption but I’m not clear about the speed issue.
I’m wondering if it’s a feature of the new platform or if it’s addressable by firmware.
Hello !
How long did the drive format take, because now it’s stuck and hasn’t progressed for 10 minutes …
Thank !
Seconds only, it’s really fast
After a Factory reset, Indeed it s really fast
I was trying to play the tracks of the DTII via an external midi keyboard (op-1f in my case). I set the auto-channel to midi channel 10. This works nicely in playing the active track chromatically. Sending midi notes on the lowest octave should trig tracks 1 - 16. This sort of works for me, but the active track is also triggered with each midi note. I can reproduce it with a new project, all track channels set to off, auto-channel set to 10, as is the default. Anybody else experiencing this or able to reproduce this?
I recall seeing in the manual that they’d changed the behavior here from what we’re used to with other machines. I think it splits the lowest 8 midi notes across 1-8 midi channels instead of across tracks. Is that maybe the behavior you’re seeing?
Manual says only tracks 1-8, but I suspect it’s not been updated.
Of the 128 notes in the standard MIDI range, Note numbers 0–7 correspond to notes C0 through to G0, the leftmost octave (which is sometimes called C-2–G-2 in certain applications). These notes will trigger the preset of track 1 through track 8, respectively (provided they are set to their default channels 1-8). These notes values map to each of the eight tracks, regardless of which track is active.
Otherwise I’m seeing it all working as described in the manual here C0 → D#1 on the autochannel all play tracks 1-16, then from E1 you get the transposed sound of the selected track.
EDIT: BUT you’re right, you sometimes also get the sound of the selected track.
Unfortunately, I can’t find the section of the manual you are referring to. However, it’s working as on the old DT, but in addition to triggering each track with ascending notes starting from the lowest note, it’s also triggering whatever track is active. So I only press one midi key and it’s playing two tracks on the DTII simultaneously.
Manual section is 8.4 MIDI NOTES (I had to hunt to find it)
You’re right, you also get the sound of the selected track . BUG CONFIRMED.
EDIT:
If the selected track is 1-8 it works as the manual says
If the selected track is 9-16 you also get the sound of the selected track
So the workaround is - select track 1-8 first.
Pitchbend issue found.
The digitakt starts mostly with all PBs for all the tracks at 0 (as can be seen in the MODULATION SETUP PITCH BEND menu under SETUP). But after using PB and releasing it so it returns to its default ‘null’ position, the PB value in this menu skips to 64, resulting in offpitch sounds in relation to the other trks.
The range of the PB on the digitakt is -128 to 127, so 64 would be ‘offpitch’ but still it interprets default middle position of the PB controller as 64. I would think it should use 0 as the default middle position for PB.
The settings of the PB are remembered even after initializing a complete project, while I would expect it to go to 0 for all tracks. Now I have to reset them to zero manually. (FUNC + Clear does not reset PB, only the MODULATIONS)
I tested it with a external MIDI keyboard as well as a Push from Ableton.
I submitted a ticket already.
I’ve also seen a bit of erratic PB behavior. I saw it when I had a midi loopback set up for testing the other midi macro controls. I’ll keep an eye out for repeat occurrences and also report what I see. (Short-term tedious sanity fix: turning all PB ranges to zero.)
Midiclock is extremely unstable when din and usb are both connected.
DTII in sync mode.
This wasn’t the case with the OGDT
Maybe related? I have an issue where neither Sync or MIDI works over USB.
Maybe recordings playback is lowered. Maybe you can get OG level increasing track level, sample level, amp vol.
Once again, with auto normalize you can’t set unity settings unless you already reach 0 dbfs…
I haven’t done any maths but if overbridge will/can stream 16 stereo , a stero fx and stereo input via overbridge that would need a fast usb data stream ?
Likely some differences with file transfer protocols but quicker usb via update seems likely.
Any maths people out there want to crunch numbers for 32+ 48k audio streams etc etc .
Easily
Hang on… as an aside, ish, are you implicitly also saying that the DT2 finally can record external keyboard pitch bends into the sequencer?! I won’t get too excited just yet as I may have misunderstood…
I crunched those numbers for you.
numbers
Ok, I’m to lazy to do the math, but according to RME:
“RME’s units [can] transfer up to 70 channels both ways via USB 2 in reference to the RME MADIface XT which, when running in USB 2 mode, gives a total of 140 inputs and outputs at 48 or 44.1kHz.”
RME USB - Transport audio with lowest latency and industry leading stability - RME Audio Interfaces | Format Converters | Preamps | Network Audio & MADI Solutions
So no, 32 audio streams at 48k is not even close to the limit of USB 2.0.
