This vid came at the perfect time! I've had the Digitakt for a while and can find my way around it pretty good. I got the Octatrack a few weeks ago and have them and other synths sync'd via a midi through box (Kenton). I've got a few ideas down, but changing the pattern from the Octatrack and having other things respond to it was kinda confusing me. I should probably RTFM more, but I'm mainly a guitarist and I don't need a manual to show me how to crunch out riffs! Haha!. Cheers dude.

That is awesome! So I've set my Syntakt to be the Master and to send midi info, but I've also set it to receive info as well. Now can it act as a master until I've set up a "higher master" that will control the Syntakt? And will it send Midi after becoming a slave?

Thanks for this! 🙌 Have been trying to figure out pattern changes across all boxes for a long time.. the midi ch for program changes was wrong 😄 One little question tho.. if the Octatrack is midi master, can it send swing information to the tempo on the other boxes? I can’t get swing to work at all if master clock comes from OT 🤔

Hi! Thanks for the video . Is there a workaround for an instant pattern change on the octatrack when send data to it from another box? I can’t get it to immediately switch. Wondering if an external midi clock would do it.

Hi there ! Great tutorial. I'm currently using my Digitone as an audio interface (not ideal, I know but my Focusrite died on me for no reason). How would you go about communicating midi from an external keyboard => to a digitone => then sending this signal to Ableton ?

Hey! Thanks for this! So helpful. One question. If I am changing banks would this still be possible? The octatrack has 16 banks and the digitakt only 8, so what happens to the Digitakt when OT switches to bank 9? Hope this was clear, any help welcome!
@gavinpeters9531

But the real problem is programs that send pattern change at the start of a sequence vs programs that send pattern change at the end. Or chaining multiple boxes with cascading program changes (necessary in some cases such as sequencing externally). Or different msb/lsb/bank/pgm counting/division. The list goes on... I sure hope midi 2 is more robustly defined, or universally configurable. The current state of affairs where everyone is left to implement their own translation of midi messages sucks if you want to use disparate manufacturers. In more ways than just program change.

Thank you for the fast reply! Before I pull the trigger on the Digitakt: you can arm record the Digitakt while it’s waiting for the midi clock start message from ANY master sequencer (not just the Octatrack)? Someone on Elektronauts said this, and I quote: “What I usually end up doing is just activating live record while a sequence is already playing (it’s not necessary to stop recording before punching in). This method is not quite as slick as synced live recording though because you often have to wait for your sequence to loop back around, which takes time…” Does this sound right? Or does this only apply when x-bar count in is enabled? Thanks again.

Yes but it will be in MONO and it can only record for 33 seconds. You could just bounce the file to 48k/16bit and copy it over to the Digitakt. It will still be mono but the files can be as long as 6 minutes.

Haha, it seems I did not set this up correctly 😹 My goal: TR-09 sends a clock to the OT, so the OT should start to play when I start the TR. Meanwhile, I want to my OT to send midi to my Monotribe. What I ended up with: Montribe plays the midi trigs when I press start on OT. But when I press start on the TR, the OT would start to play, but I can't hear the Monotribe anymore. Probably some conflict with the channels ? 🤔

Hi EZ! Thank you for the vid! bigtime fan here :) i use octa to program change a digitakt2 and two syntakts. I've read some reddit posts and gave it all i could to try to get them to change patterns in an orderly fashion, however i keep getting async problems where the slave boxes changes patterns to late (as in, they take two bars or more to change instead of the 16/16 i've set on the octa) . I've set every single pattern on all the boxes to have the same master length, and same change length, and on the octa patterns i've set the change scale to 16/16 for every pattern. could it be that because some of the tracks on the slave boxes have half time scale set that they react differently to incoming program changes? How do you have it set up??

I'm running into an issue with this using my syntakt to control the model samples. The samples is playing back a guitar loop with a length of 64 at half scale. The syntakt is at 64 normal scale. There's a delay from the samples during the pattern change, is this due to the scale difference and is there a workaround?

When using a midi input (oxi one, keystep, Ableton etc) with auto channel, does it hook up to Octatrack MIDI in (still set to not receive transport/clock/program change), and all the instruments still get it? Or do you need to have something like a midi track selected on the Octatrack because we're not midi thru-ing the octatrack (it's still master), it plays Octatrack MIDI on midi channel auto which in turn plays the downstream instruments? Sorry if I didn't make sense, the more I think I have it figured out the more I confuse myself with more complicated setups.

Great question! If they are all set on the same Auto Channel I believe it would trigger all the machines.
