Let's make a sequence from scratch on the Elektron Digitone and then perform with it!
The Elektron Digitone is a 4-part, 8-voice FM synthesizer groovebox with amazing diversity in sound and playability.

Really enjoying all of your new content, definitely keep going where your heart takes you. This kind of video is my favorite since I've got a Digitone (and learned most of my tricks on it from you). I hope you do more in this series, and with whichever gear you enjoy creating with. Modular videos have been killer too. Can't wait for the Digit[akt|one] album!

@ToyKeeper 3 года назад

This gives me a strong urge to pair a Digitone with a NDLR. Digitone makes wonderful sounds and soundscapes, with the ability to evolve those sounds real-time... while NDLR makes big, long, interesting chord progressions easy. Seems like they'd go well together.

@stevepile8133 3 года назад

Yes that would be a powerful combo

@direhavok8732 3 года назад

I have both and they do work well together, also utilizing Digitakt for beat.

@kevinclarke9406 3 года назад

Do it! They work beautifully together...

@BottleMakesMusic 3 года назад

NDLR is a great starting point. The built-in mod slots and LFO's give so much scope to messing around with the arpeggiator, Pad and Drone parts, as well as just plain old output to MIDI CC's

@trickfall8752 3 года назад

I'll never understand why we can't have 128 steps. This isn't helping quell my desire for a Digitone, but most importantly thanks for these videos. They always inspire me to explore some other avenue that hadn't occurred to me.

@fargoththemoonsugarmaniac 2 года назад

Gotta absolutely agree on that. Still you can either turn sync rate to 1/2 so the sequencer runs at half speed or tune down the bpm to half to get longer sequences (caveat being with sync rate 1/2 you have can't play that many fast notes, don't know which rn)

@trickfall8752 2 года назад

@@fargoththemoonsugarmaniac I usually wind up doing the 1/2 speed. It's funny because I use that on my Toraiz Squid, but when I wrote that comment I didn't realize the Digitakt also had that feature.

I’m trying to decide on my first poly synth and idk if I should get the digitone, the minilogue XD…or save up for the analogue 4 or the novation peak?? Idk all I have right now is: -digitakt -korg monologue -Bass station 2 I need some polyphony in my life

@RedMeansRecording 3 года назад

Peak or digitone.

@evanmscala 3 года назад

The digitone is extra special because of the 4 track sequencer. In addition to being a wonderful and dynamic poly synth, I can’t express how indispensable that sequencer is. It’s like using four or more different synths at the same time and the elektron sequencers are *so* fun when you get the hang of them Also your setup is nearly identical to mine 2 years ago. Sold my digitone to get a minilogue xd and as much as I loved that synth, the digitone is so much better at that price point.

@jamesherndon8066 3 года назад

@EVILJAMARR 3 года назад

Gosh, I really dislike these devices. I loved the electron machine drum, but the digitakt/tone are just horrible. I’ve watched countless videos, reviews and the like…it’s just bad. Sounds like the most generic EDM for Grade-Schoolers stuff, ever. Doesn’t matter how talented or hardworking the person using them is, they always sound like crap. Horrible work flow and those clacky buttons would make me throw the thing at the wall on day one. Gosh, I really hate these devices.
