For anyone looking this up now - the newer version of Elektron's Transfer program allows you to back up projects, samples, and sounds straight from that one program

I’m really hoping transfer allows us to backup and transfer kits and pattens some time. Using SysEx Librarian (mac) for transferring pattens and kits isn’t ideal at all 😩

Just a quick tip. Switch midi in/out to USB from MIDI/USB during backup process (midi config > port config). This will speed up the transfer. (4mb sysex took 4-5 seconds)

thanks for this. gotta back up my takt to make room for new stuff tonight and this is helpful.

Dude, you are without a doubt my absolute favorite person for tutorials and reviews. You explain things in such a warm, honest, and simple way, and your videos just plain LOOK good as well. Just got my Digitakt, and I have spent more time listening to you than anyone about anything (which may be problematic?? But I'm not complaining just yet). Thank you sir, I will be snatching up a hat very soon!

I was actually in the process of trying to figure this out when I found this video, so it saved me a lot of time. Thanks!

Thank you very much Ricky. You have helped me in many videos from your KZread channel, including this one. Needed to backup my projects. Thank you again!

Thanks for this really useful info Ricky, as usual your style and info is so good. My Digitakt let me down for the first time last night, It allowed me to save the project I was working on. I closed it down as usual, however, this morning the project I'd been working on did not exist. So thought I would start with a complete factory reset but I had no clue how to back up my other projects, this video set me straight with that. Thanks a lot for saving me a lot of time.

Guy... i love your channel for 4/5 month now, always fun and relaxing, your videos are just perfect. I'll own a bcr2000 with a 2018 ableton free script, what a fucking journey to end up where i am now, my final boss was to use C6 to bring this script correctly to my futur bcr2000, and finally end up on your channel, once again. I can fanilly get this machine without any fear. THANK YOU SO MUCH, LOVE FROM PARIS Sometimes what we think we do for ourself, actually you do it for others without knowing it

One of my fav KZread channels, thank you for your work.

oh men! Thanks for that, i'v been looking to save my monomachine for years but never found a decent video that i could trust, so finally i can backup more than 5 years of work haha

always helpful and easy to understand! Thank you!! this is exactly what I was looking for!

Yeah I was one of those 90% of people who didn't know how to do this. Thanks, man!

Thanks 4 clearing this out. Now there's more time for Music !

For me you are one of the most symphatic tubers on earth! + informative also..;))

Thanks, Enrique! This also works for the Model: Samples for the most part.

Super concise and clear video!!! I wish I hadn't updated my Mac OS though because I am unable to use the C6 application without a lot of reconfiguring. I am hoping Digitakt starts to move to the 64 bit route soon. I had a lot of issues with my interface/abelton and had to update the OS and it caused a slew of other issues.

Excellent video, quick, simple, to the point. Much thanks.

Thanks Ricky really helpful video!

afaik you have to do every project individually.

What I'd like to see, is how to backup a project with the sample used in the project : here you have backup all the sample in the digitakt, not the sample used in the project. You deserve a thumb up anyway because you explain it really well :)

At the end of the day, it is always easier to back up everything. Nit picking files is a time hungry task. The samples recorded on the Digitakt should always be linked in the file directory respectively inside the Digitakt's computer. In short, what Mr. Martinez said. 😉

hi Ricky i'm a big fan of your content and i have a question for you. how do you "copy" patterns from one project into another? i want to organize my live set :)

@Tapepusher

11 ай бұрын

Copy patten, open other project, go to empty pattern slot, paste pattern. This is the standard way. But I’ve been experimenting with using SysEX Librarian (macOS) to backup/import sysex patterns/kits/sounds in my A4mk2, it’s better but not great.

with sysex and i succesfully export a pattern , but it doesn’t include the original samples of that project, it gives me only the sequence, i want to be able to export the whole pattern with the original sounds in it for then transfer it to another project pattern

Do you have to back up each project individually?

When you load your saved project back to Digi do you need to be on a new blank project? And it looks like if you are on any busy project it will be overwritten by the project you loading from computer? Scary...

I have a question. When you say backing up projects does that include all the pattern chains you've made? I ask because from the research I've made it seems that upon shutting off the Digitakt your sequence of pattern chains are erased. (I don't own the Digitakt, but have been considering getting one as of recently)

My man

I've got my digitione connected but the drop page isn't opening

does this work with the rytm mk 2. I basically used an older version of C6 to transfer some samples and the samples got transferred withtout names then I got the newest version of C6 and now my samples transferred with names and did not delete out the samples without names. So i need to i think manually delete all the unnamed ones in the Elektron Transfer software. will try later today. this video was great to get started with it hopefully i figure the rest out.

quick one: what about the sounds from the pool? are they connected properly in each project after backing up/restoring the DT?

Just about any modern version of Windows or Mac from this decade will do this. It doesn't really matter what the specs of the PC or Mac are because this is a pretty simple, low processing and straightforward operation made so anyone is capable of doing this.

When you back up the sample files and sysex files via Transfer and C6, respectively, through this process you showcased, are the files still on the Digitakt? I don’t want to have to load anything back on just because I’ve backed up the files. Pardon my ignorance. And thanks for the tutorial!
