Thank you - can you please explain the steps to “select chords for the step” once I’m in grid record mode?

I think they are pretty proud of what they did here ^^
My favorite synth by far, so inspiring, nice sounding, relatively fast to tweak…

No … moaning is life.
Lovely update tho. Multitrack USB audio (via Overbridge) done, thank you Elektron!

Oh, that kind of moaning!

They aren’t 16 stereo A to D converters though, since everything starts out as digital. It just transfers the already digital data over USB. The closest thing to what you are talking about is Analog Rytm with 8 separate mono analog tracks that are converted to digital for overbridge.

Im fighting the urge to watch any of the new DN2 videos. My DN is over here sweating and feeling really nervous… Today is the day I can finally update my DT2 and try out the new elk herd. I hope all goes well. If not, at least I know where to complain.

A very nice one, good work! Was thinking about doing some kind of walkthrough myself, but maybe now I don’t need to

I’ve had both the Syntakt and DNII at the same time. Along with a DN OG before the DNII. Disclaimer, I’m not an expert. Just a casual jammer. Ymmv. DNII and M8 left.
There is something special about the Syntakt, in that, you can sit down and start jamming. Write first, tweak later. Can’t get as wild in sound design but if you want tracks…can’t beat the speed. Some of the Dave Mech videos prove that it is only limited by our own abilities.
With the DNII, I am spending more time browsing presets or sound design first and creating loops around that. It it can do it all though and is only getting better. The vibe is different…at least for me. I mean you almost HAVE to start with presets or sound design first. Which may or may not be the workflow you are looking for.
I don’t really miss the Syntakt or FX track as much as I thought I would.
That said, both are powerful. Amazing tracks are being made on both (obv, not mine, lol)

Anyone who relies on making kits on the DT2 might want to hold off upgrading to 1.10. There seems to be no problem loading old kits, but saving new kits on firmware 1.10 seems very broken. (4 of us reporting in the bugs thread).

I’m honored, thank you! I’d love to see how you’d approach it too though. 
Mono sampling, yay! Beside this, my favorite new features are track select modes (especially inverted and manual), track swap and live rec to trig. Still on OG DT, but it might be finally time to upgrade.

Thanks on the heads up. I’m in the middle of building projects and was torn between not having the occasional grid not working issue vs. having potential issues due to bugs. I will wait then.
I assume Elkherd will also not work with the latest OS?

Still, I think the new features are mostly transferably to the Syntakt. Let’s wait and see. IMHO Syntakt is still able to run with the rest. I think it’s not at full capacity yet, has an usable amount of tracks, and has it’s own niche carved out with the analog hardware. I’m not an Elektron software engineer, but things like chord mode should be doable on the Syntakt, right?

I have no idea if/how the kit save bug impacts elk-herd … would be great if elk-herd had a work-around.

What would you use that for on a mono synth? MIDI tracks? Did DT II get chord mode for MIDI tracks?
@bibenu: Thanks, seems like the new Elkherd code is paying off!
