Getting started

From the project's README ("Install"):

In the elekloader app, add both files for your OS from elemods/: digiseq-dt-0.2-os1.54.elemod and seq-events-dt-0.2-os1.54.elemod (or the two -os1.53 files). Untick DIGISNAKE and any older seq-events, keep the app's core ticked, build, and send the firmware to the Digitakt. From the command line:

python -m elekloader.patch --stock DigitaktOS1.54.syx
--mod core-4.1-os1.54.elemod --mod elemods/seq-events-dt-0.2-os1.54.elemod
--mod elemods/digiseq-dt-0.2-os1.54.elemod --out Digitaktdigiseq.syx

It links with PUMP for Digitakt 1.3, DH-101 0.25, Digi Mono 0.24, machine-pages 1.3, digihealth 1.0.1, the LØST LVLS boot splash and DIRECT JUMP for Digitakt 1.0.

From the project's README ("DIGISEQ for Digitakt"):

This is the Digitakt version. For the Elektron Digitone mk1 / Digitone Keys, use DIGISEQ for Digitone instead: the files here do not run on a Digitone, and the Digitone's do not run on a Digitakt.

Sequencer types for the Elektron Digitakt mk1, as an elekloader mod (id digiseq-dt). Each track picks its own TYPE and plays it in place of its own trigs, so T1 can play SNAKE, T2 185, and T3 its own trigs. It works on all 8 audio tracks (a note is the sample's pitch, like a note lock) and the 8 MIDI tracks, for external gear.

  • SNAKE: a Cartesian sequencer after Maxime Dangles' MDD Snake and Make Noise's René. Eight cells in a 4 × 2 grid that matches knobs A–H, walked by a path. This is DIGISNAKE for Digitakt, unchanged.
  • 185: a stage sequencer after ML-185 (Nico Starke's free Max for Live device, itself after RYK's M-185 for the Roland System 100m). Eight stages, each with a pitch, a velocity, a length of 1–8 clock pulses (how long the stage plays before the next) and a mode: rest, one note, a note every pulse, or one note held for the whole stage.
