Agreed! Digitone is one of the most versatile AND simple to use FM boxes out there. You get Cuckoo and the like bringing back the vintage harsh Sega Megadrive/Genesis sounds with it, and then you have others out there doing crazy ambient, chill vibes, and everything in between. I think the Digitone is already registered as a classic synth and will be used in recordings for... well...forever probably.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the digitone is my desert island synth. Maybe paired with an OT so I could sample and add some guitar. You can make an entire album with just that combination and it would be fantastic. Getting some Amynedd / 8bit nostalgia vibes from this tune! Fantastic as always!

Hi Daniel, great video as always. I love my Digitone, it's the my core go to device, I just gel with it. You can do so much with it, I keep finding new things too, like the random-iser button that changes all the settings on the page you are on at that time, so you end up with a different completely sound on that tack - endless accidental fun.

You can use microtiming to push a sound on to the previous beat as another sound as long as it's a different note so you can have 2 sounds playing on the same beat on the same track, granted this will use up polyphony

Neat video! Lately, I've been really into using it as a bi-timbral poly for pads and keys sounds. Wish we could get a few more voices out of it, but the possibilities for lush and complex sounds is great as is. Setting up modulation with mod wheel/aftertouch makes it a ton of fun to just sit and play with a keyboard.

Nice one. Agree with others here, the Digitone is a very special machine indeed. I owned one a few years back but didn't really get it. Got another one a few weeks back. Now I understand synthesis more, its such a rewarding device to use. The 4 tracks are a bit limiting. But I might just trade up my Digitakt for another Digitone 🤔 😄

I had one when it first came out and really enjoyed the sounds. I didn’t really have any ability to construct a song mode so I just had to mess with loops over and over. Maybe I was missing something. Now that tethering measures together is a breeze with the PolyEnd Tracker, I think I might go and revisit the Elektron stuff.

I think then you would have to keep releasing & pressing the key to preview the sound, which could lead to accidental deletion of a step if you are trying to adjust/preview multiple parameters being locked for a single step.

Honestly, if digitone would have 6 tracks, 32 voices, and 2 fill buttons, it would be a perfect FM groovebox as for me. It already does pretty much any aspect of drums, percussion, and 808-style bass perfectly. It can sound lush and chordy too, it can sound retro-y / 8-bit / trap / house / trance / house / Minecraft. It can multitrack record for mixing and mastering. I don't need no Syntakt, I don't need no Model:Cycles (already have one, it's cool, but not as cool, only chord engine, ability to sweep-rise, and hold-to-retrig are killer features really), just give me Digitone gen3 with same engine but extended hardware functionality and I'd get 2 of them and sell all other hardware except Blackbox. Or, if you give a Digitakt gen3 stereosampling, extended memory, replace midi row with tracks, and give it a 2nd fill button, I'd get that instead. That'd be perfect thank you.
