Digitone (DN+DT) only music


(⌒ω⌒)ノ So Many Ways
Hi there! Here’s a track on the Digitone.
Lately I’ve listened to soft evolving tracks, and wanted to create new patches.
Substan put some great tutorials on his patreon, and it helped me a lot creating this bass patch, and from there designing the rest.
I hope you’ll like it!

Big thanks @William_WiLD for his awesome Digitone Cheatsheet. With his tips I came across with some really cool patches for Digitone today.

Played in one pattern, recoreded via Overbridge.

very pretty.

Thanks ViolentMeals!

More Adventures on DT & DN keys - (& analog heat) - Mix came out not half bad here I think. Feedback welcome!

Thank you!

Monotone (Digitone Pattern)

This track was recorded live from Digitone via Overbridge. Added EQ and compression in FLStudio later. Hope you guys like it :crossed_fingers:

Hello everyone! A new jam, only DT

Some laid back Hip Hop vibes I cooked together with Digitakt, Digitone and Model:Cycles. Polished a little in Ableton, minimal arrangement. Hope it´s not too bad…

This is really great. Did you multi-track with overbridge or just record the stereo master? It sounds very “clean” to me and I’m struggling to get these sorts of sounds out of my DN, in particular the clean sounding bass and kick. Anyway - really nice work! I’ve clearly got a long way to go!

An awesome track! Bodes well for the soundpack as well. :wink:

Guacamolly - given the vocals and such I’m guessing you’re using “only DT” a bit loosely, but this sounds really good. Did you use the digitone sequencer? Or sequence with something else?

Thank you very much! I m really happy you like it!

The vocals are actually from a MethodMan accapella which i had processed earlier with Morph and was just laying around, i recorded it in the DT but the final result is heavily mangled and rerecorded in DT with delay settings and bit crushing.

Well DT is a sampler so i dont think such a thing as “DT only by itself” can exist, since you have to “feed” it something …f.e an 808 kick is also technically not “only DT”! But otherwise, yes it is only bits and samples i have on my DT which are mangled in DT, recorded, and then again mangled …etc (ok some i leave as they are, …mostly percussion)

I try mostly to get new sounds by playing around with the source samples.
It is amazing how much sound design and happy accidents are possible with this limited device even if you cant fully control the outcome! (only if it had a BP filter! …but one can dream!).

No everything on this tune is arranged and sequenced on DT and then recorded in one take directly from the main output, just slight EQ on the whole thing. :slight_smile:

Outstanding!

And I have to apologize, I was clicking through the digitone forum when I found this post and thoughtlessly assumed DT = digitone. I see now that you’re doing digitakt (and DN is the preferred abbreviation of digitone). It’s really good, nice to see that one machine pushed so far. I really enjoyed it.

Stay rad, and keep it up!

I had the same issue!
DT made a lot more more sense to me as Digi - Tone also! Hehe!
Absolutely no need to apologize! Thank you for your kind words! You too! :slight_smile:

Thanks @tallrobphilp but I’m also struggling to design good kicks and clear basses that sound still good in the mix later. Sometimes I just got lucky and the mix doesn’t get muddy. For this example the original recording was way to muffled because after designing all the sounds for hours my ears were almost dead. I still keep forgetting to listen to reference tracks and letting more time pass between sound design and making music. Had to clean the file with EQ and compression. I recorded just the master output via Overbridge and “mastered” the file in FlStudio.

Some kind of a rhythmic wooden windbells, made with Digitone. Holding two notes alternately and the Arp does what it does best. Relax …at least for two minutes :relieved:
