This clip contains a bunch of ideas, tips and tricks to help you get more out of your Digitakt.
An update regarding ideas that use MIDI Loopback: After publishing this clip I was alerted to the fact that pressing the "stop" button twice on the Digitakt while a MIDI loopback is in place causes the Digitakt to freeze. Everything is back where you left it if you power down and back up, but in order to work around this I did some digging and indeed Digitakt sends a MIDI CC 120 message out the MIDI out, which if sent back in, will freeze it. I reached out to Bome and they've updated their script to filter out MIDI CC 120, and it sails smoothly past a double tap on "stop", so no worries ;) I've also heard feedback that this doesn't happen on the RK-002 - so as far as polyphony goes, you should be good to go. Regarding regular MIDI loopback, you can either use the Bome script via USB, or just create your own simple Bome (or other) script / DAW loopback that filters out MIDI CC 120, or, if you're using a regular MIDI cable, don't press "stop" twice... or just enjoy the non-loopback tricks. Remember MIDI loopbacks are "tricks" that are outside of the regular scope of how devices are intended to work, please don't blame Elektron if they don't work 100% of the time...

About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
