What devices are compatible with M8C headless?

I’m looking into the device options and want the most functionality possible. Lots of mentions of R36S on different boards but also have seen various other devices.

I’m looking for midi capabilities along with audio and all that in the onboard device once the flashing and reprogramming is done, preferably without additions to the 4.1 board being used

Have any of you ordered directly from Elektron in the past couple of months? What was the tariff percentage added to your order?

Placing an order through the Elektron site directly but I want to know what percentage of Tariff were you charged on your recent order? Looking for info so I can calculate how much the order will be in total. If anyone is able to help, thanks!

I know what Google says but I’ve rarely seen it correct when I’ve gotten things shipped from over seas recently.

Sequencer no longer playing sound samples recorded on pads, and glitching out when hitting play and trying to tap pads

Hi I’m not sure what I did but as you can see in this video every one of these sequences have been recorded on (green lights indicating such). However they are no longer playing any of the pads. I don’t see any of the pad lights going off on the sample side when banks are selected and the sequence is playing any more.

A bigger issue is that now there’s glitches and delays when striking the pads also. Pads glitching, delays in signal once hit. Acting very funny.

I’ve also done a factory setting reset, not a factory data reset as I don’t want to lose my beats.

Any idea what I could have done to do that?

Thanks

Do I NEED a Digitakt 2?

I’ve been digging my digitakt, but am wondering if the upgrade is worth it. Looking at some used ones for $800.

Also do I just maybe need a Digitone to pair with it? I like the Elektron workflow and want to expand into it.

A. Sell the DT1 for a DT2
B. Buy a DN1 to pair with the DT1
C. Sell the DT1 and buy a DT2 and DN2

I am mainly an in the box producer but I love sketching ideas on hands devices.

What are your thoughts?

Also I have external synths so that’s not really what I’m asking here, asking about the little Elektron realm I want to use that I’ll pair with other devices.
