Be very careful when using midi in into Octatrack. Depending on the key you press, you may turn recording on and off for sampler, mute tracks or do tons of unwanted things. It is very cool that you can basically play keyboard and record that into your OT pattern, but watch out what channels and what controls you want to affect. Another thing, and this was discussed multiple times on forums too. OT can be buggy sometimes with MIDI. If you have big configuration, if you are running a DAW and Ot in parallel, and have a program like MIDI patch bay on your computer, sending and receiving tons of messages to your OT, it might start to act funny. Just reset it. Another thing - Cue that you have mentioned - yes it is cool to use it via headphones but it can also be an alternate output of the dedicated channels for your OT to, say, external pedals that you might want to send back to OT or directly to the mixer.

Nice!
Great stuff as usual!!! It’s a shame Octatrak doesn’t do Sync 24 out option like the Digitakt
Yeah, I see that its THRU can be a DIN Sync while still getting MIDI Sync. Very nice.
thoroughly mashed up ingredients;-)
Nice!
