Cutting-edge slice machine mode - OS 1.15 update
With the arrival of OS 1.15, Digtakt introduce the much-anticipated Slice machine. This feature allows users to divide and manipulate samples in a completely new way, enabling fresh rhythmic and melodic creativity. With the Slice function, samples can be cut into as many as 64 editable slices, perfect for deconstructing loops and experimenting with unique sequencing patterns.
A slice grid can be created by placing an evenly divided layout over the current sample, and transient detection can be enabled to automatically align the slices with the peaks of the sample. For precise adjustments, the slice editor offers full control over start, end, and loop markers, with the option to link or unlink adjacent slices for further customisation.
Once sliced, these segments can be assigned to sequencer trigs either randomly, for glitchy and experimental rhythms, or in a linear fashion for more traditional patterns. The new Slice Trig Mode makes navigating between slices effortless, giving access to every slice, even at the maximum count. This update transforms Digitakt II into a more dynamic sampler, offering an innovative approach to sample-based music creation.
Expanded memory and sequencing capabilities
The Elektron Digitakt 2 comes with a massive 20 GB storage capacity, which is a significant leap from its predecessor's 1 GB. This increase not only allows you to store an extensive array of samples and projects but also supports the enhanced 128-step sequencer. This upgrade facilitates more complex and nuanced compositions, offering musicians the flexibility to craft intricate musical pieces without the constraints of limited memory or sequencing depth.
Advanced sound manipulation
With five powerful filters per track, including two new types (comb and multi-mode), the Elektron Digitakt 2 offers unparalleled sound sculpting capabilities. These filters, combined with new audio manipulation tools like the Stretch machine, empower users to mangle and warp samples in creative ways. Whether you're looking to subtly enhance textures or radically transform sounds, this machine provides the tools to achieve your vision.
Robust rhythmic creations
The integration of a Euclidean sequencer in the Elektron Digitakt 2 takes rhythmic programming to a new level. This feature allows for the automatic generation of complex patterns, which can be particularly useful for creating polyrhythms and evolving textures over time. This tool is ideal for producers looking to experiment with advanced rhythmic structures without the need to manually program every step.
Durable design with future updates
Anticipating the future needs of musicians, Elektron has designed the Digitakt 2 to be future-proof, with plans for ongoing updates that will expand its capabilities and lifespan. This approach ensures that the device remains relevant and up-to-date with the latest music production technologies and trends, providing a long-term investment for serious musicians and producers.
