Saved me a lot of time and gave me the ability to jump straight in and make music right away! *Original Post* Still have to wait about 4 more weeks until my digitone ships (sad and painful) but in the meantime I'm absorbing every tutorial video I can before i get it in my hands. yours, of course, is the most enjoyable to watch.

1:25:40 --> You just unlocked a superpower I hadn't thought about with older synths I've used. I've always preferred sequencing with well--ones like this. However, keyboard dynamics are totally lost. this mod matrix with velo immediately puts the Digitone into the same playground as my trusty Virus B or my old klunky kurzweil. Only now that same trick unlocks keyboard dynamics via sequencers like this too. *mind blown* This whole tutorial made me super happy Cuckoo, but I have to just gush about your delivery style mate. I took a hiatus of 16yrs and this feels like you're helping me get off the couch. (As it were.)

I’ve been around dozens and dozens of Synthesizers dating back to 1972 with my Arp 2600 and Mini Moog and so many since then. So I’m pretty good getting around most of them and have a good working knowledge of FM Synthesis but I must admit I found my Digitone a little more confusing than any other Synth I’ve had, it’s is just not an intuitive layout and it has so much depth to the settings and options. After watching this demo/explanation I completely get it. This has saved me hours of experimenting to just learn the basic layout and workflow. Thanks for this excellent video.

Brilliant Cuckoo - you have set a high bar for the standard of Elektron tutorials. Detailed, approachable but not overwhelming. 🙏 I spent a few hours (before watching this) last night creating patches - and the one takeaway I got from that, and your video, is the nature of FM is that it is quite ‘volatile’. Ie. in the sense that moving just one parameter a little bit can have radical changes in the timbre of the sound. Quite exciting, but also a bit fiddly at times. It’s really fun (and instructional) to set up a workable sound, and then randomly change the Algorhtthm to see what that does, or to just gradually sweep the Harmonic, Mix, or Levels - and hear new and unexpected tones emerge. Good stuff - and my sense is that the Digitone is a device that rewards exploratory approaches. Thank you. 👍

@ErsatzMoose Yes I do use the knobs not for sound design but for performance tweaking and they add a bit - not sure its the deciding factor. I would say the Digitone is amazing with or without - def recommended. I like my keys (it was my first synth, and I think it just needed to have a keyboard :)) but at this point, I know Id be fine with the box and its very possible if I were purchasing it today Id go keyless, not out of regret for what I have but my setup and understanding is now more evolved. Id still need a keyboard though and the Digitone controls the few synths I have very nicely. But maybe Id like having a keyboard not attached to the digi if you know what I mean. Those Arturia keyboards are nice.

The benefit of learning the Elektron workflow is that other Elektron devices are easy to operate and non Elektron synths are a piece of cake to learn. I find even modular and semi modular synths easier to patch and learn than Elektron gear. But Elektron has amazing workflow once you get it.

Thanks Cuckoo. Before this video, I couldn't get the hang of the Digitone's workflow. Now, it's easy and obvious. :)

Glad to hear that! It can be a little technical at first. But once you get to this place where you are now, it should start getting more joyful. Soon it's just something you know how to do, and you don't need to think about it that hard again.

Great video, great machine. One thing users must understand about FM synthesis, is that it's inherently more difficult to create your own sounds with than Analog Subtractive synthesis. Sure, you can make your own sounds with fm, but they always end up with a fizzy bell-like timbre unless you know what you're doing with deep modulation and carrier frequency. So many potential buyers need to know that they'll likely be relying on the Digitones internal sounds unless they can get knowledgeable about FM. Traditional Analog Subtractive is quite a bit more instant gratification. Not a dig, just a comment. The Digitone is a fantastic unit.

Another great tutorial, Cuckoo! Even though I won´t get a Digitone myself, it´s so great to watch. The Elektron products look so amazing, but I am honestly slightly intimidated by them haha.
