At the first glance, the Digitakt II is ticking all the boxes.....
They knew what they were doing
I love it, just one gripe, would've liked an extra pair of outputs but not a deal breaker
coming soon on the Bad Gear chanel
LOOOOOL!
all I can hear in my head is
dee-lay
😂
I was just about to comment that haha
I’ve had the original Digitakt for about 5 years now, and it’s been my absolute favorite piece of gear since. I don’t think I need this upgrade, and I’m still perfectly happy with mine, but I must say that Elektron shows, once more, why it’s one of the best music companies out there. Delivering quality, listening to their customers, showing how much they care about what they make. There are few companies that are genuinely changing the music gear industry (Chase Bliss, Hologram Electronics and Soma, to name a few) and you guys truly stand out as one of them.
I’ll watch all the demos just for the sake of it 🫶🏼
Mk1 DT is a beast, i run midi trks to my old akai s3000xl for stereo samples and vibes the two pair nice and more 1/4 outs.
Still tho, saving midi tracks as presets and renaming midi parameters is pretty damn compelling
Same here 🙏
@@atommachine- I do similar with an old Yamaha A3000 sampler.
The DT is fantastic.
if it just had (at least) a couple extra outputs it would be my dream machine 😢
Risa!! 👊🏼
She's really good
@@vit41iq The best 🙌🏼
Can't wait to see what you can do with this beauty 😊
I wish she did more YT videos, this video came out really well.
While I wish there was actual sample slicing on board I understand that this machine just isn’t for my particular way of working. I’m also seeing how perfect it is for how a lot of other people work. Stoked for them!
Measured take! But... I'm bummed! I love working with Digitakt and haven't gotten on well with Octatrack (despite my adoration of your videos), so I was really hoping for slicing here. So it goes!
got to have a reason for people to still move up to the OT I guess - I think stereo, more LFOs and more audio tracks might make this look very appealing to people who were on the fence about the digitakt 1. I'm definitely getting one haha
@@tomadshead9203 I’m also getting one haha, wishful thinking just got the better of me :)
Yea for real! I love all the new features but without sample slicing it's no good for me either. I need proper slice control for break chopping & resamped audio as part of my workflow. Yes you can use digi chains but it's a bit of a faff for a £900 sampler.
DOH. I prefer my DT over my OT... Was hoping for chopping as well.
Darn, was hoping for the Octatrack Mk3 :*)
You can load up your OG Digitakt projects and get 8 extra tracks!! My lord!
But than you lose 8 midi tracks 😢
@@alexandervaldorf1825you can set any track to be a midi track
@@alexandervaldorf1825 if you want you can keep it midi, but if you dont need 8 of them (in my case I hardly ever use the midi tracks at all) it is a supernice plus
Beautiful demo and so much yes going on here, but the biggest yes is that we can uplift our mk1 projects/live sets that we so long worked for! Love it !
Yeah a feature I really missed when I switched from model samples to Takt ..... two years of work on the samples just sitting there. Its such a pain to handtranslate the pattern to the takt...
Exactly. This is SUPER important
The features are really gamechanging. For me it’s the stereo, Kits, the 8 extra channels and new cntrl all feature that make it a live monster.
Perform kit is also great for playing live! You can mess around on your set and return it to its original saved state easily!
Holysh*t. Well done Elektron. Meet you at the cash register... Also S/O to Risa T. Great music!
digitakt user for like 2 months now - i love this so much. Elektron... please continue to pave the way. Your hardware changed my life and workflow when it comes to creating... So excited for this!!
Was about to get the Digitakt soon but now here we are! Super excited for this!!!! Hopefully the octatrakt gets an upgrade soon
Amazing! Just made my favorite sampler even better! Well done Elektron!
If my home studio somehow magically disappeared, the Digitakt would be the first piece I'd get back (even before a laptop). I love it deeply, best gear I've ever had.
And even though I have gearlust for the DT2, I feel that the DT1 is still immensely relevant these days, with the late updates (samples modes, song mode, keyboard, etc...).
Such an amazing update Elektron! 🖤
Man, I missed half of the features, the music was so good.
and here is an amazing future studio companion. thank you Elektron!! great music and a great demo video!
I will order it immediately !! Awesome!!
Amazing! The video is stunning, the tracks are good ! You are the best ! What a beautiful machine and company!
This is amazing great job elektron!
Thumbs up for Risa T. Congrats to Elektron on the new product release. Nice work.
REALLY AWESOME!
love the video and the DigiKAT in the background
congrats Elektron!
We need that chorus and compressor on the Syntakt!!
Yes!
You picked the perfect person to demo this new machine.
Great one Elektron!!
Risa T! I recrognize that voice. She's a great representative for Elektron. She makes great music.
just wanted to say that this is an incredibly beautifully produced promo vid. nice 1. congrats on the new instrument.
Yes I agree, great video! This is the reason I don't get sent gear to make videos on. lol
I dunno... I think could use some more close ups cutaways of the sweater and blur/focus shots. more bokeh. or more of like, hiding behind a pencil cup sneakily peaking at the machine for a second. and like, maybe even more dutch angle ... slow mo hair?
@@Mewtedyes, getting so tired of this hipster sh*t...
Yep I am definitely maybe probably will be getting one.!
Fantastic update
great update!
Great sounds, great artist
WOOOOOW. Best music tech designers in the world hands down. Even better than I could have dared imagine
great job!
but I just bought 1( I will wait for more grandiose updates to it)). PS, it's really cool that you organized the effects page
Impressive ❤
Ahhh Risa T killing it 🎉 and those cute cats too ❤
Cat lady🏋🏼♀️
great demo
128steps nice, I could see this feature being added to all the devices, extremely useful for pattern changes between devices
Wow, looks like a beast. Instant classic
amazing upgrade
First! This is a fantastic update, thank you Elektron, can't wait to get one!
Outta the blue ❤ If the Syntakt 2 got some of these features as well (128 steps, kits, FX, etc.) I'd be in heaven!
thaaaaaank you for kits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also dope overview and demo! !!
Exciting!
Was just looking at the first one, had to sell mine 4 years back... Definitely getting this one to Pair with the Sp404MK2
Count me in! ❤
Really like the intro dnb tune!
Risa T 🌟. Congratulations elektron 🙏🏾
Nice Move, Elektron. Obviously a very beautiful kid of the Digitakt!!
🔥 Very enjoyable video really liked the presenter she did well and the new machine looks excellent adding it to my arsenal soon ❤
That was... wow Digitakt II is ticking most of the boxes so far! The music in this video was really great. Phew
So hyped
Glad I just got a Digitakt at the end of last year.
Great!
This is what i was asking for
Class 🔊😎👌
THIS is a gamechanger!
Honestly thrilling
@elektron what you need to make next is a digi sized box with digitone’s poly sequencer and arpeggiator, 12-16 tracks, sampling, or at least sample playback machine, fm, analog, Syntakt machines, 3 lfos per track, and the FX block. You’re on the verge of greatness.
Omg ✨🥳🎶 Finally!
Now we need a Martin Stimming review.
When can we expect this to be in our studio's 😎? Amazing update to the MK1, thanks for keeping the same layout and form Factor
YES
I loved my DT.
Nice one! ❤😊
Crying from joy!!
Top!
Oh Yeah ❤
Yes yes yes
Here we gooooooooo
For 999 USD, I hope that it comes with your product departments’ communal crack pipe and a couple free Brillo pads. Now all it needs is a subscription-based VST!
lovely. simply a no brainer
Risa T rocks this little box.
This camera work reminds me of a drunken night out
This is massive. The expanded sample slots are exactly what's needed to compile individual projects into live sets, not to mention all of the other upgrades from DKT 1... And 128 steps!? looking forward to this 🌳📐🤟.
1&2 working sweet harmony me thinks 🎉
wow!
What a fantastic upgrade. It has most of what users asked for and even more. It is a pity that the zoom function outside the sampling screen isn't available (yet) and zero crossing on samples has been omitted. These are functions that I found very useful on the Octatrack and really missed on the Digitakt, but who knows, maybe this will be added in a future update 😊
Yoooooo chill 😮💨
Thanks ! I prefer to get the Digitakt 2 over the Octatrack for live size.
I think it's a great update. If I can use the extra eight tracks as four note polyphonic samplers then I don't need another box to make music. I can make music just on the digitakt. I think that is what I really want and what most people really want. A box that covers all of your bases. Just hook up a MIDI keyboard if you want to and make music. If we can simplify the process of getting four note polyphony out of four tracks I think it's a game changer.
Helll yesss
Here we gooo
Although the yellow screen was better for the eyes and late night sessions, perfect upgrades!
Well done elektron
ELEKTRON STRIKES AGAIN! Looks amazing. 3 LFOs is hype! I hope the price isn't too outrageous. Looking forward to getting my hands on one. And thank goodness Digitakt is now confirmed to be pronounced "Dijitackt" not "Diggytackt".
looks sweet , is there synchronous sampling option now ? I love the machine but I hate to have to stop the music to sample loops properly
Glad the cats were credited
the new Kit feature is the real game changer, wish there can be an upgrade like this also for the Octatrack😅
This is bangin for sure… probably the most noteworthy MKII update compared to all the other MKIIs you guys have made but I’m not upgrading until real some chopping is adding. I need to be able to select my end points. Right now I have to use other machines for chopping before getting the samples into the DT and that’s annoying as hell. So to upgrade and have to keep that same redundant workflow would be nuts.
Great, the update seems to be great, memory, fx, sequencer updates are huge ! the look is still the same :) hope you will propose for Digitakt 1owner an upgrade plan.
hype!
OMG good news of the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder if we’re gonna get any love with the new os on DT1.
Wow
Am i the only one thinking its not ground breaking?
Yes
Is that Brighton, London Road area by any chance?? Looks like some great updates to an already cool bit of kit
Dispapointed by lack of adjustable slices for the slice machine :/
Agreed
@@asynchronicity Still?! Jesus. It's basic stuff, Elektron, add it to both DTs ...
looks promising.
Looks like a fantastic machine for endless joy in exploration and serious sound design. Although fx’s are thin on the ground.. New to this, the learning curve seem rather intimidating. I wonder if this unit will work for me as a musician to create songs/pieces in a hybrid fashion - recording longer tracks of instruments, vocals in the old linear way + the Elektron workflow strongpoints. Anyone with similar thoughts or experiences? I like dedicated machines and I’m tempted either way 😅 But it’s an investment I won’t jump until I know what to expect.
Awesome! Very nice improvements over the OG takt. The three LFOs per track will open up endless options. The video was a bit odd, though. Lots of shaky shots, blurry close-ups of a cat, and an obsession with hair? Doesn't impact the quality of the DTII, though, so all is good.
