Can we turn the Digitone into a Virtual Analog synth?

- Let's try to make the Elektron Digitone sound more analog, and tease out some classic waveforms.

Also modulating the 'mix' parameter with a medium rate LFO when using similar-ish waveforms on the X and Y side, can create very nice subtle shifts in timbre.
This was awesome man!
The master of fm. More of this please.
Great digitone tutorials for beginners like me! Thanks for sharing! Subbed!😊
That's very helpfull approach of the digitone! Thx
Very cool. Interesting ideas here.
Really appreciate these vids learnt so much. A lot above my pay grade as I just was given a DIGITONE. Having no experience what so ever this was great. Now off to your back catalogue 🎉
this was great. any plans to do more Digitone videos?
This is amazing! Thank you for sharing! I had no idea -1 meant that operator is silent. I've been using algo 2 with x focused on sub freq and y focused on high, then getting a mix between the two. You have a deep understanding of the digitone.
Would another way to combine the two waveforms (on T1 and T2) be to assign those tracks to the same MIDI channel? Then when you played notes or adjusted the cutoff for that channel on your MIDI controller, you'd be doing so in both tracks at once.
Yep, that would achieve the same result, but could limit you if you wanted to use other patterns during a performance as it's a device setting.
With layers, you can play using the appropriate MIDI channel for T1, and freely tweak T2. In the video I was sending MIDI over the auto channel, so it followed the active track.
Excellent content 👍you could also use control all to adjust env etc on both voices
Totally! I realized that too, after wrapping up the video of course! 😂
Great video and tips, thank you for your time! Also - why does EVERYONE have Valhalla Shimmer? 😂 I wanted to get it at one point but now I’m beginning to think it’s used by just about any synth geek out there that I’d be better off carving out a new flavor of reverb somewhere else 😅
Thanks! Is it showing up more? I think I was inspired a little by State Azure, dropping it in for some nice subtle reverb that doesn't need too much setup. I usually favor Valhalla Room and Supermassive for the big reverb!
I also like the Baby Audio "Spaced Out" and "Crystalline", possibly underrated and worth a look at.
Amazing. I never thought about using it this way. What’s the sequencer you are using in Ableton?
stepic. is a VST or standalone
U guys think its likely that there will be another digitone update?
We can only hope. Given Elektron released an update for both versions of the Analog Rytm recently, the outlook isn't entirely bleak.
Yes, they update their machines for a loooing time. Might be a few years between updates but they always deliver
707 smokes it
That's cool, there's lots of synths and grooveboxes out there! There's something for everyone in fact. The 707 does look pretty neat, and packs in a lot of classic synths. I don't have one, however, but I do have an S-1. Maybe I'll feature it some time?
