This is an awesome nugget of information. Thanks for making this video! I like that you can mix set the levels within your digitakt but get the benefit of sliding parameters with automation (something that isn't possible without overbridge).

This is pure gold. Im on the edge of buying a digitakt right now and selling my maschine mk3. Btw, do you have to delete the actual digitakt sequences before sending midi back to digi (copying it beforehand ofc) and can you still have your performance recorded into separate audio tracks via overbridge after editting things like so?

No you don't have delete anything on the digitakt for it to receive input from the computer. and yes you can multitrack to overbridge and use this technique if you so choose! thanks for watching

It is really nice being able to record all those tracks of audio/ midi over usb. So freaking convenient.

this is awesome. Are the notes you play also recorded into Ableton or is it just the parameters? could you do a step by step video of how you set this up? I dont really understand why elektron does not focus fully on this instead of audio recording. This makes for way more edit possibilities afterwards.

Are you creating a separate midi track to listen to the incoming midi data or is that the initial plug in channel ?

When you say "jamming things out on my Syntakt". Does Ableton record that automation somehow? I thought the digitakt audio tracks send just send audio to it. Would be cool if you explained how you got all that automation down

Hey hey. The automation is recorded automatically by Ableton! Been a while since I made this video but basically…set up overbridge and it should work :)

Seem to figured it out you need to midi map the parameters first in ableton, sorry for the noise, I thought this was something straight built into overbridge

This is how I use my Syntakt and Hydra, A a great hybrid workflow and combination. Havent figured out how to record the parameter changes on the Syntakt IN to Live yet though. Not sure why, so Ive just used Live to automate the parameters and play midi notes. Do you know if you can have multiple instances of Overbridge in Live for multiple Elektron devices?
@nicolasfieldsoundservices

That is a great question. I've never actually tried this because the only Elektron box I own is the digi. I would assume it would work fine because Elektron has released unique Overbridge plugins for each of its devices, and with the digitakt it's been a set-it and forget-it type of experience.

@@nicolasfieldsoundservices So I just tried it and from my experience it did record parameter changes from the knobs, hoewever it wasnt even seeing any notes than any of my tracks were playing. One thing to note is that it doesnt record automation that is already recorded into the syntakt itself - it only records when I physically move the knobs. Also, note that I didnt do this with midi tracks, I did it with the digial and analog "machines" as I guess they are called. My bet is that if I set a track as a midi track that it would see and record the notes from it in a similar way - meaning when I physically press and play a note or physically twist a knob, but not from pre-recorded data in the syntakt.

Are you saying that Ableton listens to the knob inputs on Syntakt's audio tracks and records the automation? So this basically solves the lack of parameter slides on the Syntakt?

Hey man are you running into any latency or jitter issues running it this way through Overbridge? I’ve looked over the Elektron forums and there are lots of complaints, but apparently it’s an issue on MacOS not so much on Windows? Not sure, but trying to find a way to get it fixed.

@@HelicopterRidesForCommunists Controllling parameters from push works great if you just want to set a parameter to the right level, but if you want to record automation, I think drawing it in is more precise since all push encoders have only 127 steps.
