Digitakt Mk1 MIDI CC naming. - vegadw - 10-07-2026
AFAIK, the Digitakt MK2 supports setting CC names, but you can't on the MK1. This is super annoying for anyone using it as a sequencer for other gear. This should be a really simple mod.
I might try to vibe-code it later, but was curious if anyone else has either done it or can hammer it out super fast.

Started a first crack at this. Very much so not happy with the current version, but it does technically work. Will put up on GitHub soon-ish

Repos up. I intend to radically rework this later, so nobody get too attached to this version.
RE: Digitakt Mk1 MIDI CC naming. - vegadw - 10-15-2026
Pushed substantial updates, tested with all the normal digi1_mods on a real takt1. Still ironing out a few kinks, but it's immensely more usable. Just hold func and then hold the knob you want to change the name of in the CC page. The keyboard doesn't work *exactly* how I'd want, but it's broadly functional now.
EDIT: Just did a quick test - names don't survive reboot, even on project save. More vibe coding necessary.

Not sure if you checked https://github.com/sumedho/digirequests/tree/main/modules/cc-names but it might help you (I haven't tried myself).

I went though this the best I could by hand, and with an LLM. The generated code is damn near obfuscated C, but both the LLM and I came to the conclusion this has a lot of problems with memory/storage usage.
To actually save CC names, there's a very limited amount of room, especially if you want it to be per project.
I'm still toying with the best way to do this. I think the best I'm going to get is a bank of 64 preset 4-char names where you can select a name per knob per track. I might be able to make the 64 names able to be changed globally. Still toying with it.

Alright, I think I have this done and as good as it's going to get. Tested for real on my Digitakt, along with the other mods running at the same time.
Main concession was you have to bake in, at compile time, a list of 64 words to choose from for each knob. It's not arbitrary naming. That wasn't for lack of trying, it's just that there's extremely limited room to actually save data with the project, and the other mods are already using a fair amount of it.

Is it possible to put this in modwerk or combine the another cc naming mod?
