i know Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a tool to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid lost my account password. I would love any tips you can offer me.

[@LateNightBeatsOfficial]

Thanks, Bo! This video felt almost like a one-to-one tutorial: you answered all my questions. Seeing this tutorial just reinforced the opinion I voiced in my video that the MIDI sequencer alone justifies the price tag on the Digitakt! Definitely getting one soon :)

[@BoBeats]

+HalutioN thanks man!! Glad to be of service. :-) its a great machine, having loads of fun

[@LateNightBeatsOfficial]

I'd like to venture one more clarifying question, if you don't mind. You mentioned that you can p-lock program changes in the source menu. So, if I'm not mistaken, this should mean that you can change presets on your preset-enabled synthesizers on a per-step basis. Is that the case here?

[@BoBeats]

+HalutioN I think you are correct. This should be doable. I have not tested it enough and as with midi there can always be unexpected kinks, but it seems to work

[@LateNightBeatsOfficial]

Thanks, if you find a second, maybe you can test it with your SUB37?

[@BoBeats]

HalutioN good idea!

[@drstupid1]

pretty powerful little box. they really are gonna unlock some mad techno insanity when they unleash this on the kids wooooo!

Great job man I've been watching your vids since I got in to novation circuit you have made tons of progress keep up the good work

[@BoBeats]

+Parker Dwyer thank you mate! Glad you see my progress :-)

[@crozpatching4598]

Great Video Bo! But i gotta tell ya, the Mother 32 does take CC! When you go to setup mode, channels 13-16 can be assigned to output CV based on CC values out of the Assign out

[@deroden724]

You're killing it with the Digitakt tutorials. Keep it up!

[@BoBeats]

Thanks man! The m32 is a fun synth for sure

[@jonathanhayward544]

Thank you mate for all your videos. Always informative and helpful. The Digitakt is my first Elektron product and I impressed. Wondering if you would ever do some videos on the Synthstrom Deluge. This piece of gear seems perfect for you given your love of the Circuit.

[@BoBeats]

I want to cover the Deluge and I have been talking to the company making it but they can't provide me with a review unit yet.

[@Tom_Heller]

Very good tutorial. I’m French and not getting a lot of aknowlegment about Elektron and english language, but you made me improve a lot. Thanks for that

[@impurfekt]

Excellent tutorial Bo. Keep up the good work!

[@magicdave93]

My god that's complicated but very interesting, I think I'm going to watch this video several times to understand midi though lol. Thanks for sharing this with us!

One of my best sounds yet on the Digi. Its sampled from a jazz sample and polished a bit with the Digi

[@northerncatto]

Agreed, it sounds amazing.

That was hard bro, keep it up, the vids are holding me over until mine arrives. Question, can you use your Clarett Thunderbolt interface to feed into your DAW/computer for insert FX.

[@BoBeats]

+bigdap100 yeah that works. I have very low latency with the Clarett

[@dangerbird64]

this is a great jam you created in the intro!

[@patrolalex]

Thanks Bo. I shall be arpegiating my System 8 from my Digitakt now. This should be interesting to say the least.

[@elliotdavidson7137]

Bo! - Thank's man, really appreciate this! I like your tinkling too (your musical style is quirky) which is ALL good too hear....I'm having a play with this right now with the XD which i think is a neat little combination - Helpful stuff

[@The_CGA]

Idea: MIDI ch 16 sends from Digitakt to circuit to control some esoteric stuff about the session, like the left:right ratio on the delay, or the master filter q/rez. even to have a controlled, automated fade in or out of a synth part.

[@BoBeats]

That is a very cool idea mate! Very cool indeed. I did not think of it at all but having this much control from the Digitakt would surely bring the Circuit to another level. I will definitely add this to the list of ideas I need to try out

[@cosmogang]

Intro jam was banging

[@BoBeats]

Thanks!!

[@Almada78]

bought the digitakt today , but this video make me wanna bring it back to the store ! looks complicated

+Sleepydog makes sense. Its referred to as depth in the midi cc list. But I guess thats basically the same thing

Man I love the sound of the Mother-32. I've never bought one because people say to get it only if I want to get into modular/Eurorack, which I don't want to get into. But I do want that sound.

[@Tony2dH]

Check out the Behringer Crave, pretty much identical sound and options, but costs only 159 euros!

[@thedeepblueskys]

I own the Moog Grandmother, DFAM, and Mother 32 and use the mother 32 the least out of the three of them. With that being said, it does produce the best sounds though. I’m always taken by surprise of the warmth it has, especially with a little reverb on it. So glade I purchased it. I didn’t mind spending the extra money in comparison to the Behringer Crave. I’m a huge fan of Behringer btw. I have a Deepmind 12, and can’t wait for the future releases of there other clones. Mainly the OBXA and other’s alike. Anyways I’m starting to ramble. Point is, the M32 is well worth it. I hope in the two years after your commitment that you eventually picked one up.

[@squishmusic]

God job/overview! I am investigating how suitable the Digitakt (or elektron environment) is for linear MIDI sequencing. I understand trigs/chance can bypass the 4 bar limits but Ive yet to find a HW seq that can rival my QY70 (16-trk 999bar linear sequencing if one really wants to get the real-time-jam-groove on). I like to have my drums and samples and 4-8bars is enough for that but what if I want a piano/pad groove that is 64 bars long (yes bars not steps :D). Im really drawn to the Digi/Octa for the cool wild FX one can program in MIDI CC and stuff, but it seems the polyphony (max 4 midi notes) and even the chance is a limit. I could not make a variation occur every 16th bar and then a different one for every 24th bar...AFAIK...anyway, yeah thats my requirements. I know the Squarp exists but it has no sounds/samples itself.

[@mikg2618]

2:28 The nine midi tracks, but actually only the eight. Anyway Thanks )

[@chateautemp]

Thanks again..for all your great videos. Re LFO on Minilogue: INT = Intesity?

[@homelessballoon]

That was beautiful!

[@murahachibu]

Great reference. The thing that I was having problems with is that the midi notes on what I was trying to sequence are for some reason two octaves higher on the Digitakt. I am also having no luck with figuring out how to play the external device and have that be sequenced. I have heard that you need to use autochannel to do that but I haven't been able to figure that out yet.

[@BoBeats]

The keyboard issue: you go into settings, midi settings, channels, look up auto channel setting and set it to say channel 10. Then you switch your midi keyboard to midi channel 10. Then you should be able to play any selected channel and play it.

[@reason2910]

dope jam

[@BoBeats]

Thanks!

[@KeiNaarr]

Digitakt owners, please help. I'm considering exchanging my MPC1000b for a Digitakt. I found someone. But I hesitate. I will use the digitakt as a sampler / drum machine but also as primary sequencer. My setup is for live act 1st & studio 2nd. Now, MPC has 128mb RAM, 2 MIDI in, 2 out, 4 individual audio outs. DT has 64mb RAM, 1 MIDI in & 1 out, no individual outs. MPC's sequencer has 32 MIDI tracks, DT has 8. MPC's sequencer is otherwise more powerful in nearly every way: better resolution, more notes, more everything. But DT has P-locks which is fantastic. Now I'm finding the MPC a bit complicated to use, especially for a live act. I have an MS-20 mini, a Minilogue XD, Waldorf Q Rack, Korg EMX1 +ESX1. For a live act I don't use them all: usually 2 synths (MS-20 + 1 poly) + 1 Electribe. 8 MIDI tracks is usually enough for live, but it's short for studio. What would you advise me to do ? Is DT better for a live act? Thanks...

[@ambitsmusic]

Thanks Bo, really informative

[@joeboygsxr]

Love that flute sample! Sounds like you nearly went for the Phil Collins in the air toms in the intro haha

[@BoBeats]

haha :D Phil Collins is my god

[@joeboygsxr]

BoBeats you should sample the iconic drum fill and try incorporate it into a jam, you could mangle it of course or do something quite different with the Digitakt's processing

[@nicolasbarreto2977]

Thx for this amazing lesson🤟

[@lorenzomarzocchi3390]

Hi Bo, thanks for your amazing reviews! Just a simple question: can you give a name to the CC value on the Digitakt? (even a short one would help, three digits I guess) ...When you start having 8 CC's x 8 tracks it might be handy ; ) Thanks!

[@BoBeats]

Thanks! You cant name the CC :-(

[@s4lome792]

This helps so much if youre new to elektron, thanks you so much! what I dont quite get: whats the difference between the source page and the amp page? I get how the cc values work, but I dont get what pb, at etc are for..

[@rohanjoseph101]

Great demo! Well explained. How is everything hooked up? Did you use a breakout MIDI cable or something?

[@BoBeats]

I use a kenton usb thru 5

[@richardmorgan2837]

Great vid! Can i ask a noob question? (midi is not my strong point ha). I'm planning to use the DT as the main hub to control minilogue, TB3, TR8, 2 x volcas and an EMX2. Do i just need a midi thru box for this?

[@BoBeats]

+richard morgan yes, a midi thru would be best. You might be able to daisy chain but that is often aaaaalot of work

[@t_n8435]

Terrific! Did you mention the drums you were using where were those from?

[@ivanbuonanno3309]

Very nice tutorial. But if if I want to record in the digitakt sequencer using the keyboard of the instrument controlled via midi by the digitakt?

[@sk8session]

Amazing, informative video! How many midi patterns can you save on the hardware? Only 8 at one time? Can you point each of those 8 tracks to a diff channel? Thanks so much for the help!

[@BoBeats]

+Quest thank you! There are 127 projects I think... each project contains 128 patterns. Each pattern has 8 midi and 8 audio channels. So plenty!

[@sk8session]

That's great. Thanks so much for the info!!!

[@brentwalker9160]

Hey nice video just curious what type of keyboard,synth or controller are you using in the video???

[@BoBeats]

+Brent Walker I dont use any. I use the Digitakt to do the controlling of the other synths. But I have also used the Keystep a lot with the Digitakt

[@MattGreerMusic]

Intro jam was sick AF. Great video. I'm sold. Question: If I had my trusty 5 channel Midi thru box hooked up to the midi out of the DT, I could use the midi out thru the 5 to sequence 5 external syntsh right? BUT.. could I then also use the Thru on the DT to sequence a 6th device? Does that make sense?

[@BoBeats]

+Matt Greer Music the tru only sends from input, so it does not send midi from the sequencer (as of now, might be changed, I have pointed this out to Elektron) but I use a thru box as you say

[@marcocelis2104]

Hi there Bob , great video !!! Quick question : anywhere to get the CC values list ? Thnxs

[@jiphomburg9818]

nice video's, makes me think of replacing my MPC 1000 as studio brain. which brings me to my question. I like the MPC but it has to stop playing when you want to set things up or record which is a bit of a downer when making beats or jamming. Do you think the Digitakt will make a good modern replacement for a MPC 1000 in a small studio/ live set?

[@BoBeats]

+jip Homburg I have little experience with MPCs so its hard for me to say. I think you need to adopt the Elektron workflow in order to truly enjoy the Digitakt. And I am sure you will miss some of the sampling options on the Digi... it doesnt slice samples for example

[@jiphomburg9818]

Thanks for the reply. i've been looking at your video's and tutorials and the workflow on the Digitakt looks more hands on then the MPC. The fact that it also has 8 channels i can sequence my other synths with makes it very interesting for me since I mainly use the MPC for sequencing.

[@JoergWessels]

Using an LFO to send hundreds of values over a serial protocol of the 80s? Sounds like a tremendous idea that will totally not mess up the sequencer's timing.

[@redlester]

Yours are the best tutorials I've seen on the Digitakt, thank you so much for this. Is it possible to use the Digitakt for MIDI sequencing via USB MIDI or does it have to be 5-pin MIDI? I have tried using USB (DIgitakt>Computer and hardware synth>computer, both via USB) but don't think it's possible?

[@AlmostHomeSounds]

hey Bo! what is the solution to playing live instruments with the digitakt? can you play the keyboard of your external synth and capture the midi in the digitakt to create a loop? i worry that programming note by note would be too clunky of a workflow and will pretty much make the midi tracks useless to me

[@garvinkelly]

Thanks for the video! I plan to control my monolouge with the midi and I'm wondering if the patch knob is controllable/ saveable with Digitakt? If I use a certain patch on the mono for a certain pattern on the digi, will it be saved/loaded by the digi when I load a project? this would be great for faster transitions in live shows

[@BoBeats]

+Garvin Kelly hm, I am not sure since I dont know much about the Mono. My guess is that Monologue responds to program change data to switch patches. So therefor you should be able to set up a program change value in the track on the Digi corresponding to the patch on the Mini.

[@Kayr311]

This is great! Thank you. But once you set everything up, is there a way to save your midi settings so you can import the whole midi set up into another project?

[@BoBeats]

+Kevin Rodriguez you can not save presets. But what you do is you create a project, name it Template X, save it, then you can duplicate that project

[@Kayr311]

Thanks Bo!

[@Funkbutterfly]

Hi Bo, great video! Do you know if the digitakt supports midi over usb at this point? I can get it to sequence hardware synths but am having trouble getting it to send notes to my arturia vsts via usb. Thanks for your help!

[@BoBeats]

It can send midi over USB but I am not certain why it does not work for you

[@Funkbutterfly]

Thanks for the reply! Still problem-solving over here. Have you done this yourself, Bo? Connecting the Digitakt directly to the computer and getting them to work together? I must be missing something...

[@northerncatto]

Reminds me of sequencing MIDI on a Kawai Q-80... with friendlier menus, lol

[@BoBeats]

haha yeah its quite "old school" in some ways

[@northerncatto]

Would you say it makes a good unit for a "DAWless" setup? I'm looking at a lot of your videos and other channels, and the Digitakt looks like the best machine on the market right now to be some sort of backbone for an old school setup.

[@toligrant2120]

Great video, but I have one question. Can you play external synth on its keyboard and record sequence live and than put digitakt to play it as a midi looper?

[@vanessalouzon]

Really good track! Ok, stupid question, I don't much about midi, I'm more of an audio kinda person, but how do plug several different synths to the Digitakt through midi?

[@BoBeats]

To plug several synths you need a midi thru (for example: Kenton Thru 5) that lets you connect multiple outputs to one input. Thanks man!

[@vanessalouzon]

Thanks! But wouldn't I also have to plug in the Audio of each synth I want to midi, like on a DAW? How would I do that?

[@Hakucho64]

@@vanessalouzon In a DAWless setup, you would plug the audio outs of your synths into a mixer. The mixer will need a stereo/mono input channel for each synth.

Thanks much for the video! How do you sync the Arp Mode to the digitakt speed? Or is it already with the midi?

[@DopamineOverload]

Thanks as always for your great tutorials, Bo. I'm learning a bit about the Digitakt out of curiosity. How do the patterns work, with the 8 monophonic sampler tracks? Does a single pattern consist of the 8 MIDI channels / tracks, as well as the 8 sampler sounds? So, in essence, it's a 9-part sequencer... let's assume your 8 sampler tracks are all drum/percussion sounds. So, you have those 8 tracks as "a drum track", and then MIDI A could be a bassline, MIDI B, chords, MIDI C a lead melody... etc? Thanks for clarifying!

[@Madmohawkfilms]

Thanks Bo just got my Digitakt yesterday, set midi channels etc n went why isn’t anything playing out of my Yamaha reface dx??? The extra src step was unknown…..

[@findjonmoses]

Hey BoBeats, loving the Digitakt got mine a few days ago and its great. I noticed you have a Korg Minilogue like me and I have been trying to understand why I cant get the midi CC of Digitakt to control the filter cutoff. I have read page 57 of the minilogue manual which provides the midi mapping as CC43 but when I set all the correct things in the Digitakt it doesn't work for me. I have managed to control env decay and I can sequence sounds on my Korg using the Digitakt but no dice controlling the korg filter. I wondered if you have the same settings?

[@BoBeats]

+Jonathan Mosley i have gotten the filter to work but yes, it was behaving a little odd at times. Try setting the CC parameter first THEN enabling the CC controller (under filt page). This helped me.

[@findjonmoses]

Ah cool I will give this a go. I did notice the video cut when you mentioned you were going to setup the filter so wondered if you also had trouble. I couldn't tell if its an issue with the Digitakt or the Korg, but if I remember correct I had no problems doing the same with the Octatrack, so maybe its just Digitakt teething problems. Thanks very much for the help :)

[@BoBeats]

Yeah the video cut because it took time getting it right. But that was because I had an old manual with wrong CC numbers :D

THANKS AND SORRY FOR MY POOR WORDS

[@BoBeats]

+estudios patagonia not sure I can explain: devices should be set to reciece program change, also set them to the same program change channel.

[@BoBeats]

Yes this should be possible but I cant explain it very well here in comments. But you can.

[@Pommesgabelliebhaber]

I really wanted to know more about the chord sequencing. When you choose a chord for one step, does it automatically translate to the next one you want to program it to or do you have to program a chord from scratch every time you go to a next step?

[@BoBeats]

You can copy and paste the triggers, that is the easiest way.

[@Pommesgabelliebhaber]

And then you can just transpose the whole chord to your will without having to transpose every single note in the chord? Thanks for answering my comment and thank you in general for your amazing videos!

[@drumatic]

@BoBeats can you explain how the Digitakt would work well with a piece of vintage gear like SP-1200? I'd like to be able to control the MIDI tracks 9-16... do you have access to any vintage equipment to demo? Either control the SP1200 or have it controlled by DT. Thanks for your help.

[@Christosmaybeyes]

Question about audio routing of the hardware that Digitakt controls via the MIDI tracks. Can I route the audio out of my 2 synths into the audio inputs of Digitakt so that I can monitor them directly through the Digitakt headphones output without using an audio interface or mixer?

Hi from the Netherlands, when you connect a midi keyboard (midi in) DT on auto channel you can play and record directly the sequence. I dont' understand why Aftertouch, Mod wheel Pitchband can't be used by keyboard, but only with the 4 knobs. Is that the big difference with the Octatrack ?

[@BoBeats]

I don't think the sequencer can record those things... I think you have to program it manually. But I am not sure.

do you have a thru box to link all the hardware together , and how can you send two midi signals note to the mother 32 from one midi channel ?

+LerLoons you can set the digitakt midi channels to send to the same channels, so two physical channels, but one midi channel
