Harmonix is an intelligent controller for Elektron’s Digitone FM Synth!
- Intelligent Sound Types (Pad, Strings, Keys, Organ, Bass, Noise, Perc) let you program Sounds with minimal effort - Randomize / Morph / Reset various parameters of the Digitone (Tracks, Pages, MFX, Mixer, Mods) - Various sound design functions and macros - Mixer to control Track Levels, Mute, Pan, Drive & FX Sends - Receive the Current Kit - Randomize Modulations - Snapshots for install recall of Sounds - Manually launch Patterns or Queue up to 16 Patterns (Song Mode) - Save / Load Presets - Customizable Keyboard filters notes to the selected Key / Scale, and controls various parameters with vertical finger movement
If you’re using the Pitch Bend function, be careful as I just noticed the Digitone has a bug where it will never reset the oscillators to true 0 after releasing the pitch bend wheel (from my app or from any pitch bend controller)…this results in you being slightly sharp until you reboot the machine.
Added the ability to control more parameters with the keyboard
The update later this week will include a new view mode where you can see all Parameter values of a Track at once. This will let you lock, reset, or randomize individual parameters.
Thanks, looking for feedback on other sound design macros people often use, or other types of patches…I haven’t been able to consistently create drums…need to dig through some DT presets and see what tricks are used for percussion.
Added toggle to control All Tracks at once with the Keyboard
Changed Keyboard “note hold” function to standard “latch” behavior
It’s incredibly easy to sound design with this! I’ve received some great demos of stuff people have been making. This is the final Beta, but I will be constantly adding more functions and modes to it. Hopefully progress is made on the sysex decoding as well.
I like Harmonix very much. But the way to change key/scale/octave etc. with finger movement is difficult to handle. I would prefer a popup box and from there scrolling to the choice you want to make. Or maybe both ways by double tap?
