How to use Moa8itwedding Digitakt Sample Packs with Digitakt
It does not get easier than this.
Download the .zip file via the link you received via email after your purchase. Unzip the file into a new folder. Copy the folder to your Digitakt using Elektron Transfer software.
Decide which of the two Digitakt kits you want to import. You might want to create a new project. Make sure the Ram is clear. Import the Kit of your choice. This will fill all available sample slots in your Digitakt project in perfect order.
Start jamming!
Depending on your preferences and workflow, you might want to save the project right after importing the kit into a new preset. Then save it to a new project and start jamming.
The next time you can save time. Load the preset. Save to new project. Start jamming without loading the samples. You can do this for both kits included in our Sample Pack. So you have two different quick start – starting points.
How to use VOSYR Sample Packs with the Digitakt
Check the Tutorial Video here, or follow the instructions below:
Locate the Samples folder of the VOSYR Sample pack you want to use with the Digitakt. For Moa8itwedding Sample Packs, this is located inside the zip file you have downloaded after your purchase and extracted to the destination of your choice.
There will be 101 files in the “samples” folder. 100 are the samples and 1 file called “sample” (This file can be ignored) Tip: Copy all 100 files to a new folder and delete the “sample” file so that only 100 samples are left.
Then rename all the files (Change the file-extension).
PC users:
There are multiple ways to change the file extension of a file on a PC system. Let us show you two methods that we use on a regular basis.
1st Method: Prepare files for the Digitakt
- Select the first file in the samples folder.
- Press F2 on your keyboard, this lets you rename a file. Simply add .wav at the end of the file. This will then change the file-extension to wav.
2nd Method: Prepare files for the Digitakt
- Select the first file in the “samples” folder.
- Right-Click the file and choose “Rename”, Simply add .wav at the end of the file.
Tip: There are some free Batch Renaming tools available for PC. This will speed up the process.
Once all your files are changed to the .wav file-extension, you can then drag and drop all files at once into Elektron Transfer software.
We created a how-to video to demonstrate the processes mention above.
MAC users:
Mac users can “Batch Change File Extensions”
- Pull down the “Finder” menu and head to “Preferences” and then “Advanced”
- Check the box for “Show all filename extensions” and then uncheck the box for “Show warning before changing an extension”, then close out of the Finder preferences
- Select all 100 Samples in the folder called “samples”, then right-click and choose “Rename XX Items”
- At the “Rename Finder Items” screen select “Replace Text” and inside the “Find:” section, place the initial file extension, and under the “Replace with:” input .wav, then click on “Rename”.
That’s it! You have successfully changed the file extensions of the selected files.
