Digitakt 2 is a Co-Producer – Track Breakdown

video upload by Sineway

"Obsidian is a track that emerged through working with the Digitakt II.

In this video, I break down the elements of the track, but more importantly how the ideas took shape. Not just what is happening, but how the Digitakt II actively shaped the music.

All synth sounds are sampled from the Arturia AstroLab 37. Rather than sequencing notes directly, full phrases and musical ideas were recorded into Digitakt II and then explored, reshaped and refined from there.

Drum sounds come from Digitone II, sampled and processed inside Digitakt II as part of the same workflow.

This isn’t just a track breakdown. It’s also the starting point for a short series of videos about how Digitakt II has changed the way I approach sample based music production, composition, and discovery. More on that very soon.

Dub Techno with Elektron Tonverk (Music and track walkthrough)

video upload by Martin Stürtzer

"This is my first Dub Techno track with the Elektron Tonverk. All sounds, samples and effects are from the machine. After I play through the track I explain how I created the different elements of the pattern and tell you what I think about the Tonverk.

I bought this instrument from my own money, this video is not sponsored by Elektron.

All music was created by a (cat assisted) human. No AI tools were involved in the production of the music and artwork.

This Granular Synthesizer Completely Blew His Mind

video upload by EZBOT

"If you have been searching for a great granular synthesizer or atmospheric powerhouse, look no further. The Elektron Tonverk was updated recently with several new features but the big standout for music producers, is the new Granular Synthesis engine called GRAINS. It sounds absolutely amazing paired with abundance of modern effects included in the Tonverk."

Exploring Xenodrive FX unit #techno

video upload by Yan Cook

"Exploring the Xenodrive FX unit from ‪@EricaSynths‬
This box is a beast for adding analog warmth and grit to your tracks.

What I loved:
Overdrive & EQ: Superb tone and very intuitive. I’m really impressed with the character of the overdrive, and the EQ is incredibly useful for sculpting the tone.
Extras: Having the compressor and noise gate built-in makes it a really versatile tool for any signal chain.

The Challenge:
Waveshaper: It’s very destructive! Works well on basic waveforms, but I’m still looking for the best way to utilize it on more complex patches.

"Racing the Edge at Mach GoGoGo" - Live MIDI synths. Akai MPX, iConnectivity mioXL.

video upload by Patrick Manderson

"'Racing the Edge at Mach GoGoGo'

This music was recorded live late afternoon on Saturday December 27 2025 using a MIDI sequencer and a room full of synthesizers.

Inspired by a 60's cartoon series.

Music was sequenced and automated with a Akai MPC X sequencer and a iConnectivity mioXL MIDI router.

Audio was mixed through a Midas Venice F24 mixer into a MOTU Ultralite mk5 audio interface.

The following devices were used to for drums and percussion layers.
Korg Radias, Roland SH4d, Electron Analog Rytm Mk II, Novation BassStation II."

Beyond the Noise: Synth and Eurorack Performance

video upload by MKustomAudio

"The initial idea of this track started with just ambient noise created by running the Mutable Instruments 'Plaits' through the Schlappi Engineering 'Interstellar Radio'. This noise was further processed and randomized by running the signal through various filters and effects.

After deciding to add in melodic and percussive content, the Moog 'Mother 32' and Novation 'Bass Station II' (AFX overlay used) were then added with sequencing provided by the Squarp Instruments 'Hermod+'. To process the Bass Station II further, it was sent through the eurorack setup using a couple Noise Engineering modules and the Befaco 'Oneiroi'.

The Novation 'Peak', Sequential 'OB-6 Desktop', and Korg 'Minilogue XD' and 'Arp 2600M' were added next to provide bass, melodic and ambient drone content. Last added was some additional drums/samples provided by the Elektron 'Digitakt II'."

Dungeon Synth on Digitone II - Oggol's Sigth

video upload by Silent Tower

"I'm continuing my experiments with sound. And every time I find inspiration in plastiboo books. Such potential is hidden in them. Recently, I also got 'GodHusk' in addition to 'Vermis I' and 'Vermis II'. Although it's not as popular, it's also a masterpiece, and I'm sure I'll use it in the future to find inspiration.
