  1. Anyone using the Digitone, Digitakt, or other similar Elektron boxes know if there is a basic peak meter somewhere in the UI?

    Or is that a kind of thing that makes no sense to use on a synth and instead only on a recording target or destination elsewhere? I'm trying to figure something out in the context of the compressor, in terms of a reference point to adjust each track.

  6. How do people use these Elektron compressors without a peak meter? Isn’t that necessary?

  7. Trying to learn how to use the Digitone compressor and found this really useful video. Have to say compression has to be one of the trickiest things to learn with synths.

  12. Tried to see what it’s like to do something experimental on a Digitone and it’s about as easy to use as an analog modular, I think. Took me about half hour to figure out how to record audio straight into an iPhone camera and had to use the Blackmagic camera app (amazing btw) and a Zoom U24. Used 3 tracks with “probability” triggers and 1 S&H LFO. Just 16 steps, looping. Of course not as powerful as a modular but so convenient and compact.

  18. Models EP now available on Bandcamp!
    kudzuplant.bandcamp.com/album/

    Recorded directly into Ardour from my Elektron Model:Samples. These are some tunes that I have been meaning to get around to recording and releasing for awhile now but haven't had a functioning computer to do so. Pardon the bare Bandcamp page. Still getiing everything to an aesthetically pleasing state.

  19. #Elektron devices are still new to me, and I'm still learning how to use them. And I keep forgetting the shortcuts! So I created an interactive list for searching shortcuts, because I don't want to keep looking them up in the manual or asking questions and trusting some LLM.

    I am sharing this with the rest of the world.

  29. I have a Digitakt II but...I'm not sure I like Elektron's workflow. This thing is incredibly powerful, so maybe I'm just missing something?

    For comparison, I am in love with my TR-8S. Hardware controls for every damn thing, sequencer is intuitive, but it's definitely a more limited machine than the Digitakt II.

    Thoughts?

  33. You can name data entry knobs for CC values in MIDI tracks on #elektron #digitakt or #digitone!

    I couldn't figure it out, even though I've done it before. But the internet was telling me it was not possible. Of course it is, it's in the manual - Appendix A.

    Press and hold [FUNC] and then press and hold any DATA ENTRY knob to access the naming screen 🤦‍♂️

  35. For some reason I made a video where I play through a rough sketch of a new song I'm currently making in the synthwave-style. Melodic parts are mainly finished, but drums needs some more work.

    I think the main reason was technical curiosity to try out #Hyper8 (a self hosted static site generator for video), but it led to gaining motivation to continue working on this song. You never know which things leads to other things...
