"should I buy an electron digitone? "
elektron product forums says: “yes!”
but yeah its a good one… though I might recommend you buy a used Electribe EMX, it has a number of pros against the digitone, especially on a sequencer level, and none of the tinny sounding FM sounds
“Tiny sounding” 
Have you ever tried it ? [ok, I see you have one]
The bass is strong on this one 
I remember my first gig with it, I had never tried it on professional PA system.
I told my friend he had a bass way too huge, and it answered me I was the joker…
No, tiny sounding is surely not true.
Try it with every ratio set to 1/4 and a bit of operator amount…
Me in my best Nick Batt impression
But it doesn’t have PWM FM, now does it?
I’ve destroyed a sound system with a Digitone alone. No joke.
(Well, we hadn’t cut the bass properly either, but I assure those kicks were not for the faint of heart.)

They make good music, but are certainly a bit overused when referencing specific types of sounds. I guess they just have an easy to remember and easy to abbreviate name which makes them a good shorthand.
I once shattered a window with a sub bass patch I made on an Alpha Juno back in the 90s…
Taught me to never underestimate gear only because there’s no Moog logo on it.

gonna need that patch
I don’t know. I’ve had the digitone for a year. It can create some sweet sounds, but I don’t particularly like programming it. I just don’t get it I guess, which means I’m too reliant on accidents, really. And the sequencer is kind of a pain in the ass too, especially for poly.
Just trying to suck your gas out a bit. I honestly think I’ll end up selling mine soon enough though, I just don’t get FM synthesis, I guess, and too lazy or uninterested to learn it.
Love mine, get one.
This is all digitone ran out via the beta drivers with a bit of processing

I’ll see if I can dig it up for ya. It’s a combination of the crazy PWM on the saw, high resonance, closing the filter until it’s allmost a sine, then add a tiny bit of chorus, if I remember correctly.

I kind of felt like that for a bit until I started dicking about with the LFOs, then I got into bonkers Tipper Squelch territory and far out sound design with it.
I find getting the very basics of a sound before heading over to the LFO section and setting very small amounts of depth and flicking through the LFO destinations can yield awesome results, and yes happy accidents.
I love mine now

may i ask how you recorded this track ? you said it was in one take …do you use a recorder ? or do you use a daw ? any mix and mastering after the take ? TX in advance
Loved it man! Unbelievable 
Would you care to share some info about the sounds you are using?
I have had a drumatix also, lovely machine!
What the heck 
Totally banger! How do you got this timestrechy sound on DN?
It’s not my track, so I don’t know exactly how it was recorded. I imagine he manually muted / un-muted tracks and possible pattern chaining.

Nice track! With the beta drivers are you tracking all the tracks separately into your daw? Or is this just the stereo outs?

Time stretchy sound? The drone thing that runs through it? I had one trigger at the beginning of the pattern set to the “1st” condition and left the amp envelope release to inf so it just runs. Then I rember using one saw lfo on a fm depth. Can’t recall if it’s b or a and b and the second lfo was going to some other parameter at low audio rate like x512 or something. I can revisit the project if ya want. Lol

Individual tracks eq, compression reverb etc were added in the daw later. The drop part is just that drone through a trance gate and a spring reverb
