The Digitakt likes to play with other machines. Whether it uses its ability to sync and play with legacy ma-
chines, samples from your smart phone or controls other synthesizers: Digitakt gets along with other gear.

17.1 DIGITAKT WITH A MONOPHONIC BASS MACHINE

The DIN sync capabilities of the Digitakt allows you to use gear from yesteryear.
In this example, a legacy monophonic bass machine is used alongside the Digitakt. The Digitakt can stop,
start and control the tempo of the bass machine.
1. Prepare a bassline pattern on the bass machine.
2. Connect the output of the bass machine to the mixer using a Mono jack 6.3 mm male cable.
3. Connect the Digitakt audio outputs to the mixer using 2 x Mono or Stereo jack 6.3 mm male cables.
4. Use a DIN connector cable to connect the MIDI OUT of the Digitakt to the SYNC IN of the bass
machine.
5. On the Digitakt, press [SETTINGS], and then navigate to MIDI CONFIG > PORT CONFIG and set OUT
PORT CONFIG to DIN24.
6. Press [PLAY] on the Digitakt.
