I hadn’t thought but that must be a major contributory factor in the missing feature (that and the ensuing need for dynamic slice point determination). But yes you have to question the utility of that LFO destination.
EDIT: @JoyrexJ9 have you submitted an actual feature request?
I‘d love to see stereo width control. Bonus points if LFOable.
I love playing around with the stereofield and this would make it way easier and less likely to get messy. And some (audiorate) LFOs on width could make for interesting modulation choices 
And I guess this is redundant, but audiorate tracking to note values (like on A4) and note tracking as modsource (like on DNII) would be juicy af.
It‘s weird asking for these things as I just got my DTII and I freaking love it. This as well as the minor quality of life improvements would make this even more of a killer machine!
The platforms are probably too different.
Take a look at the performance of an Akai S6000 - there are still some features that no modern device can manage.
The platforms are completely different, but in terms of processing grunt and a UX to make it work - it’s been done
Yeah I think Elektron have a pretty strong principal of maintaining backwards compatibility at all costs, and never remove a “feature” (even one as bizarre & useless as modulating num slices)
I wonder if they’ve painted themselves into a corner, I hope not!
Good point on the feature request, I haven’t done that.
(even one as bizarre & useless as modulating num slices)
excuse me i use this all the time since octatrack 
I don’t mean modulating the playback slice, that’s classic Elektron stuff from the OT days. I’ve used it a tonne too.
But modulate the total number of slices?!
It can be used to make semi generative stuff, with LFO to slice num to change which slices get played when. Exploring these kind of edge cases without having a goal in mind is the source of a lot of happy accidents with these devices. In any case, it seems like if they wanted to do, they could figure out the slicing points for 64 slices, then when the slice num is changed, just ignore all the points in between.
just sample a A440 note???
Agreed, don’t want to stick a massive guitar pedal next to my DT2 if I can help it. I also don’t find it straight forward to do it by ear (like I did the other day).
a Digitone II with its 16 note midi polyphony paired with an SP404MK2 (super cheap) gives you everything currently lacking in the Digitakt II, i.e. 32 note polyphony, live looper, beat splicing, USB Audio and FX. It’s a really great pairing, just uses one track on the Digitone II
I tune by ear like that when I’m just jamming, but don’t trust my ear enough to tune without a tuner of some sort when sampling/recording.
I use 2 apps for tuning. Both on Google play and I find both more useful than a guitar tuner and both free
Vocal pitch monitor.
Spectroid (unfortunately in hz only.)
Plus my ears obvs 
I looked on google play and couldn’t find your ears, got a link?
a nice QOL add would be the SYNC TRIG LFO mode from octatrack
unironically this would be easy to implement. In many cases I prefer deterministic modulation and not having to P lock a 1st condition to sync the LFO.
It would be cool to have two parameters for resonance in base-width filter page. Like the Q parameter in Octatrack’s filter but one for low cut frequency and another for high cut frequency.
When did we collectively give up on calling the current Octatrack iteration a “Mark 2”? Man, the Octatrack 2 branding is toast at this point—feels like a full-on new Wii U scenario at Elektron. Slapping “OT2” on anything now would be a marketing trainwreck 
With 20Gb disk space it would be great to play long audio samples as stems. But ~400Mb RAM doesn’t allow this now. Maybe the static machine can be implemented for DT2 like in Octatrack to stream the audio straight from disk with a little RAM buffer.
