Bad Gear - Digitakt II
Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. There are these unfounded rumors that this show is not actually about Bad Gear, that I just pick random stuff I want to make music with and let clueless online trolls do their magic.
This is - of course - a steaming pile of horse dung and I just recently failed to find enough hate on, for example, the Access Virus B, Novation Drumstation and Dreadbox Typhon.
However, today we are going to talk about Digitakt II and as this particular unit was sent over by Elektron as a long term loan even they must be aware of the fact that late 80s polyphony, partial physics workflow and a lack of essential hipster features make for some juicy online controversy.
Bad Gear - I might be BIASED
This Digitakt II was sent over by Elektron as a long term loan.

I’d say the lack of polyphony is even more insulting in this day and age. . A $10 ARM A9 SOC from 2007 can handle massive polyphony + high track counts, as seen in the Synthstrom Deluge. Digitakt 2 is sticking with the same underpowered 200mhz SOC from Digitakt 1, plus a Sharc DSP chip for audio, which lacks the power of comparatively priced general purpose ARM chips. Digitakt 1 and 2 are such wonderful, brilliantly designed machines otherwise, but I don’t get why Elektron would tie their arms behind their back with obsolete technology. It could be so much more with a little extra oomph under the hood.

I think the upgrades are okay, but to me Digitakt was never meant to replace a DAW. I see it as a drum machine- its more than powerful enough to do that. I love the Digi to start off the track, build the rhythm part, the just overdub in the DAW (overbridge is addmitting its ending up in the DAW anyway). On the one occasion I really needed a stereo sample, I split the file in two, left and right (on my computer), then trigger the two samples panned hard left and right at the same time= stereo.

I completely agree with the hater saying "no internal battery, zzzzzz" like the point of "handbox form factor" music making hardware is to take it wherever without having to juggle multiple expensive electrical gadgets wired to each other. People always say "well, rip cords!!" but you don't see them juggling an external battery pack with their Gameboys, PSPs, Nintendo Switches, Steam Decks etc do you? That's because no one wants a handheld-sized device that isn't actually handheld, unless, for some extremely strange reason, it's a groovebox with G.A.S. gravity behind it that makes people want one despite its flaws because of social proof and validation or something

@PaulSpades Ай бұрын
Yeah, that's a software thing. Elektron sequencers seem to be based on sequences with note events that define everything else (from what sound source to use to what effects and parameters for everything). Most stuff defines all of that info on the track, and the sequence just contains basic midi note events and automation on every track. Although, if the sequencer is properly abstracted to implement midi with program change, you get "parameter lock". It's more like freezing automation to a sequence step instead of letting it vary with every clock tick. Novation also pulled it off with the og Circuit, I'm pretty sure you can do the same thing on some old Yamaha boxes, but Elektron made it popular as a workflow because they let you change almost everything in the box for every step. We should be asking grooveboxes/samplers to work like this, by now. Akai software has always, always sucked.

Other manufacturers take note! Its great that Elektron sent you one - I hope this becomes a trend among synth manufacturers!
@AudioPilz Ай бұрын
Agreed!!! Big shoutout to Polyend too

For me and my workflow the only thing missing in the original D1 was a chorus. With that addressed in the D2 it now becomes a more "complete" box for any task. Drums, beats, synth and sound design as well a scratch pad for ideas or to create complete songs. I for one love that fact that Elektron is making small refining updates rather than screwing up an already great piece of gear. If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Given how Elektron treats their products lifecycles I bet the D1 is now in line for a major fw update to give it most of the D2 functionality, except stereo tracks of course. It will come after the D2 news has settled down.

Nice I’m glad you got one. You deserve it. We didn’t get the outputs but got everything else. I can’t see why they can’t firmware add that sidechain to mk1 down the road.

Oh man, throw some crunchy metal guitars and 90's Trent Reznor vocals over jam #2 and you've got some *tasty* industrial dance right there 🤘 Fantastic as always Florian, love watching you get your hands on gear just to see what you can do with it!

Btw, try hellraiser in Reaper with the Melda Saturator (I forgot what else I used) and such and dropping it 2-3 octaves. Heavy AF. I mean I've only used Reaper for like 1-2 hours.
