    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 🫶🏼

    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.

    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.

    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.
