Elektron Digitakt

Thanks for the feedback Rytm/Elektron owners!


Big City Music confirmed that “The engine is sample based only. There is no internal sound synthesizer. It is capable of sampling and sequencing.”

@GCF Rytm is the easiest Elektron.

Just read the manual a little beat bit an you’ll see it’s rather simple to have it running a groovy loop in no time.
It’s deep, means you can do whole tracks with it, but it can be simple as a Volca Beats, if you only use the basics.

Don’t fear Elektron, or only because once you’ve tasted the sequencer, you’ll miss it everywhere ^^

Rytm is really really easy to use and make powerful sounds, you became spoiled after using it for a while :slight_smile:

Gods yes. I loved the OP-1 until I started getting Elektron stuff and then I had a rough time with it. Until I started using the ‘MIDI CC’ LFO option on the OP-1 with the Monomachine’s sequencer. Then I could get that per-step parameter-level operation I like with Elektron’s sequencer combined with some of the unique OP-1 engines (especially String or Pluck or whatever it’s called) - made even more fun when run back through the Elektron for some effects. Made even MORE fun when you start doing incestuous things between the machines (sample an Elektron into OP-1, use OP-1’s weird ass effects, sequence/sample back through Elektron).

Any more details on this?
Info is oddly sparse…

This week at Superbooth should be some info.

Wow that’s very cool. Def impressed!

I wish they had spent a bit more time showing the sampling aspect of it. – It seemed like it’s still a bit of a ‘ok lets stop everything and sample, setup, save, name…’ … definitely looks way more straight forward than the OT tho!

They stole the way of sampling from the OP-1 kind of, or am I getting sth wrong?

i´ts the op-1 sampleengine combined with an elektronsequencer…that´s what i thought…

Disappointed with it being a clean digital sampler… but a cool screen…tbh I wouldn’t pay no more than £400 so might cop one 2nd hand

Looks like a souped-up Volca Sample…

Why they’ve putted a stereo input when it only can sample mono?

It merges the stereo into mono, so that you hear both channels but in mono, Cenk said

@Cuckoo 's vid covered the sampling in more depth than the previous video – auto buffer creation, immediate prompted assign to tracks, the original sample stays alive in the ‘editor’ as you save bits off to tracks… This seems like a pretty nice workflow!

It’s beginning to look like a lot of power for the money.

I was pretty sure I wouldn’t GAS for this one.

But @Cuckoo’s video got me pretty excited ! I love the sound, and the workflow seems so modern compared to OT’s !
Damn.

as usual, I’m in the same boat as you!

Thinking about selling my Circuit and some other gear to get this. I love sampling, and the interface and mangling on this make me very happy.
