Excuse me but I am curious about that you say guys about the ability of the Direkt to run regular needles too, and not only carts. A dd doesn't vibrate too many for regular needles?
I have a HM dd with adjustable strokes but never tried it with needles 'cause I think it moves too many the needle tip, specially trying the long strokes. I heard and read that this side movements goes to the top of the needle but it doesn't feel at the needle tip, but after testing it with a 4mm stroke on my HM it's hard to believe that...
Maybe the Direkt has something different?
