#synthesizer fedi:
I have a #digitone, and I don’t really know how to use it. Obviously reading the manual would be a good start, but does anyone have suggestions for resources on how to get up and running quickly? Written word is preferred but videos are ok too. I am familiar with the basics of the #Elektron workflow (I have an A4) but I know nothing about the digitone specifically.
(boosts welcome)
#synthesizer #digitone #elektron
Random poll for those folks with #Elektron gear: do you usually record using #overbridge, using the audio outputs, or do you use one or the other depending on context?
(Feel free to boost.)

Ey, since some time the reddit user dissonant_witchcraft is shaking hell (if I might say so) on the subreddit r/synthesizers.
This one is sooo evil!
Btw. she isn't just some random Reddit user, she is known as Catenation and all ya #industrial heads out there should take a look at Bandcamp to dive into that distorted cosmos.
But first things first - here is her bravosatanic submission to r/synthesizers
#distortion #LoudMusic #digitone #industrial
Today felt like a #Digitone kind of day. A dark #ambient track to go along with the gray Bay Area weather.
Digitone continues to be one of my favourite bits of kit. I need to pair it up with more things -- such as the Virus...

Really enjoying the Elektron #Digitone as a multi-timbral synthesizer. This dark, orchestral synthwavey piece is mostly Digitone, with percussion, extra textures and effects added in the DAW.

Today I jammed with the #Digitakt and #Digitone, recorded it, and smooshed it into this thing somewhere between #ambient, chill out, and #industrial.

Eight 1-2 hour long noisy jam sessions edited down to one 4-12 minute "song" each.

The music video was created with #videobending
Gear used: Various #Elektron boxes (mainly #Digitakt #Digitone and #Monomachine), #Eurorack, a #Microfreak, #Korg opSix, #Yamaha DX200 and a #Hydrasynth.

First jam with my newly acquired Elektron #Digitone. FM synthesis is a scary, confusing, beast. But it sure can sound nice.

I made a little EP with #ableton #digitone #elektron #jomoxalphabase
And I did a little animation for one track with #blender

I re-mastered and re-recorded the song I posted a few days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2D0tsrH2AI
Using the #Digitakt after first using the #Digitone, I love a few obvious upgrades for percussion:
8 tracks allow for much better build-up than just using 1 track for drums on the Digitone.
Retriggers - I can fake this on the Digitone with the Arp, but it's not as convenient.
Limiter/compressor is good - but I need to get better at mastering.
Custom interface for the #DX7.

Not a fan of touch controls (I'd much rather menu-diving.) We've also got the #Digitone now so I'm over it.
Don't get me wrong, there's really great stuff you can do with a DX that you can't with a DN, but I don't think there are any UIs out there that help you manage oscillator phase or anything fancy like that.
