Digitone feature requests!

Probably not possible, but extra algorithms would be a nice addition.

+1 for LED dimming! I can finally look at my Digitakt at night, but my Digitone is giving me a migrane :confused:

Dry/Wet control on the internal effects: with 100%wet the DN become an external FX unit for mixerā€™s send/return.

Before I forget, this one: ability to lock the encoder values on midi tracks so my sausage fingers donā€™t keep changing the midi channel or the bank/program by accident.

Elektron do not care anymore

That may be jumping to conclusions.

I think theyā€™ve got something big up their sleeves for the DN. If you look at the track record of updates for all of their machines, itā€™s only a matter of time until another great update will drop.

What makes you say that ?

Ess left more than one year ago. Iā€™d like to share your optimism but Iā€™m not seeing (new) Elektron spending large ressources on a product thatā€™s been way less successful than the Digitakt.

Iā€™ve got no clue how to run a company making electronic music devices and I donā€™t know how much more successful the DT sold in comparison to the DN. However, just from a logical point of view, wouldnā€™t it make more sense to release an update for a machine that is not selling as well in order to generate hype and appeal to more potential customers? Why would it be more beneficial for elektron to release an update for the DT because it is the more successful unit? People already bought it, elektron is not making any money on already sold units with an update.

I think youā€™re overestimating Essā€™ importance here.
A company like Elektron with thousands of users over the whole world cannot afford to rely on only one developer.

I may be doing that yes. Trust me I would gladly be proven wrong. Basically all Iā€™m saying is that itā€™s been a long time since the last substantial update.

Is audio routing to Tip and Ring for separate Tracks possible?
Close to a purchase here.

? I guess this is not a request, but a question.
I might be wrong, but Tip and Ring are just L and R, so you can pan your tracks to Tip and Ring just like you can do it to Left and Right. So, yes.

Iā€™m sure model handles was a financial disaster, on top of pandemic problems, so surely thatā€™s more relevant to updates and new models than a few people leaving. I bet weā€™ll see an update for the DN and AR

Thanks, but found the answer is actually no. The L/R are balanced config only :frowning:

Well, then just use the headphone out for L/R-T/R panning

You also have a chord modā€¦ But no prewritted inversion.

Thatā€™s why a good implĆ©mentation for an update would be : chords inversions

I was hoping for a 4 way audio split, like the A4.

Have to own a digitone keys for that unfortunately
