parameter data to or from a specific audio track. If configured as OFF, parameter data are neither
received nor sent via MIDI.
TRACK A–H selects the dedicated MIDI channel that is used to receive or send (by turning the knobs)
parameter data to or from a specific MIDI track. If configured as OFF, parameter data are neither
received nor sent via MIDI.
The sequencer data is always sent on the MIDI channel specified by the CHAN
parameter on the SRC PARAMETER page.
On TRACK A-H you can only control the parameters on the TRIG (NOT1, VEL, LEN,
LFO.T) and LFO (all) PARAMETER pages.
FX CONTROL CH selects the dedicated MIDI channel that is associated with the parameters on the
DELAY and REVERB parameter pages, both for input and output. If configured as OFF, parameter
data are neither sent nor received via MIDI.
AUTO CHANNEL selects the MIDI channel that will give access to the currently active track. If an ex-
ternal MIDI keyboard connected to Digitakt sends MIDI data on this channel, the keyboard will control
the active track. This is useful when for example quickly changing between the active audio tracks
to play dierent Sounds. The Digitakt also uses the AUTO channel to record to the MIDI tracks from
external MIDI controllers.
PROGRAM CHG IN CH selects the MIDI channel that will listen for incoming program change mes-
sages. An AUTO setting will use the AUTO channel. Enable Digitakt to respond to program change
messages in the MIDI SYNC menu. For more information, please see “15.3.1 SYNC” on page 59.
PROGRAM CHG OUT CH selects the MIDI channel that will send program change messages when
changing patterns. An AUTO setting will use the AUTO channel. Enable Digitakt to send program
change messages in the MIDI SYNC. For more information, please see “15.3.1 SYNC” on page 59.
15.4 SYSEX DUMP
In the SYSEX DUMP menu, project, pattern, and Sound data can be sent and received. Select a menu option
using [UP]/[DOWN] or the TRACK LEVEL knob. Press [YES] to open the highlighted menu selection.
When receiving or sending SysEx data, the MIDI ports or the USB port of the Digitakt should be connected
to the external sending/receiving device.
If the Digitakt is sending or receiving SysEx data through the MIDI ports, use the Elektron TM-1 USB MIDI
interface for up to 10x transfer speeds.
If the external device is a computer, we recommend using our free SysEx utility C6, which can be down-
loaded from the Elektron website.
Please note that Sysex dump only sends and receives project, pattern and Sound data. It
does NOT send or receive the Sounds samples.
15.4.1 SYSEX SEND
Here projects, patterns, and Sounds can be sent to an external device via the MIDI OUT port or the USB
port of the Digitakt.
