Introducing Digitakt

[void]

The MIDI sequencer hasn’t even been finished yet and has not been demonstrated in any videos.

There is, as of yet, no specific information on what type of MIDI messages, or PRG change it can SEND yet, beyond standard CC#s.
Only that it can do 4 notes per step, and has the standard Rytm features (micro timing, trig conditions)

I hope that it can send program change from the MIDI sequencer tracks.
I imagine that when running DT’s MIDI out into its own MIDI input, aside from the obvious MIDI LFOs plumbing into itself, one might actually be able to fake a song mode with this feature with a conditional (modulus) micro timed MIDI program change trig at the very end of a sequence, using it to change its own patterns in a way that is not the standard pattern chain mode.

If this is the case, it will be huge.
Beneath the cacophony of “no real song mode” moans there could be an actual solution in there for those who need it.

Bazinga. This should work, and I think it can get very advanced tbh.

Generative, mutating pattern chains

[title edited - not theory anymore] Digitakt can sequence program changes, and it has trig conditions you can take a MIDI cable and create a loop from the MIDI out into the MIDI in So, you could put a trigless lock into a MIDI track which just sends a program change to the device. DT should then queue a pattern according to the program change it sends to itself. Cool! You can chain patterns that way. Mute the MIDI track to stay in a pattern. now, what if you enable a trig condition for …
