U-He Diva: 60 Dark Noisy Arp Presets. No Talking Sound Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

"🌌 Dark Cycles is a collection of 60 arpeggio presets for the U-He Diva virtual synthesizer.
The soundset is built around the idea of combining a hard, mechanical sound with a more atmospheric vibe due to FM synthesis, modulations, delay, reverb, and other synthesizer capabilities.

📦 Get these patches: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/diva...

📻 The bank is inspired by analog sounds, but the goal was to make a more aggressive sound, but still atmospheric.
💽 The bank covers a wide range of timbral colors: lo-fi, atmospheric, hard, detuned, bright, massive, dirty, analog. Perfect for a variety of genres such as techno, breakbeat, EDM, IDM, industrial, and more.

🎛 Each preset is performance-ready, with velocity sensitivity and ModWheel assignments mapped for expressive control. The ModWheel introduces additional modulations - such as brightness or tonal shifts - offering creative flexibility for both studio production and live performance.

👤 The author of the soundset is skendi (Arseniy Pushkov).

Digitone 2 Macros: 7 Reasons You Should Use Them

video upload by Sineway

Also see Digitone 2 controlled by Launch Control XL 3 - Full one-take performance

"Are Digitone 2 macros the most underrated feature in the Elektron world?

In this video, I show how you can use the mod wheel macro to create *smooth, relative control* over multiple parameters. The best part? These macros stay consistent across pattern changes, meaning your fader always reflects the actual sound, even across pattern switches.

In this tutorial, I'm using the Launch Control XL 3 (thank you Novation for sending it over!) to map a single fader to several parameters at once - no value jumping, no mess, just clean transitions and full performance control. You can use just about any other midi controller for this to work.

And yes, I know macros aren’t new. Digitone, Syntakt, Digitakt 2 - they all have them too. But let’s be honest - it’s probably the most buried and menu-divey feature there is and most of us either ignored them, forgot they existed, or assumed they’d break everything mid-jam.

Turns out: they’re absolutely brilliant! It’s the first time I’ve added more cables to my setup and felt zero regret.

⏱️ Timestamps:
00:00 - Intro
00:26 - How the macros work
01:21 - Benefit 1: Guardrailing your performance
01:55 - Useful shortcut
02:10 - Benefit 2: Seamless sounds across live sets
04:36 - Benefit 3: Better mixes
06:06 - Benefit 4: Easy mode
07:48 - Benefit 5: No more sudden midi cc jumps
09:38 - Benefit 6: More creativity
11:03 - Benefit 7: No more ruined projects
12:09 - Next video: My live performance setup (midi, tracks, faders)

🛠️ Gear used:
Elektron Digitone 2 (OG Digitone, Digitakt 2 and Syntakt all work too)
Novation Launch Control XL 3 (any midi controller with faders or knobs will do)
MIDI cable (just one!)"
