#Elektron devices are still new to me, and I'm still learning how to use them. And I keep forgetting the shortcuts! So I created an interactive list for searching shortcuts, because I don't want to keep looking them up in the manual or asking questions and trusting some LLM.

I am sharing this with the rest of the world.

FYI #elektron device havers, if you're on Linux Elektroid is a really good open source version of the Elektron Transfer application. I've been able to upgrade my Digitakt 2 firmware and load a bunch of samples this evening without any issues. It can be installed as a Flatpak as well.

I finally managed to record a #track on my #dawless #elektron setup. It's fast-paced #acidtrance, I guess. Maybe it's time to try something slower now 🫠

Not sure where it leaves me. I'm not a big fan of #MPC workflow but I have this growing feeling #Elektron did not get the memo. Since the release of #Syntakt (and then mk2 #Digitakt and mk2 #Digitone) it seems Elektron has very little insight to how their instruments are used and who are the ppl using these. For me personally these instruments are failures. After that Tonverk was this one opportunity to make things right and combine the previous efforts into one #groovebox style #instrument.

I have a Digitakt II but...I'm not sure I like Elektron's workflow. This thing is incredibly powerful, so maybe I'm just missing something?

For comparison, I am in love with my TR-8S. Hardware controls for every damn thing, sequencer is intuitive, but it's definitely a more limited machine than the Digitakt II.

Thoughts?

Drum #machines used in my latest #album Korduma Kippuvad Vastused are #Elektron #Digitakt in combination with #Nord #Drum 3P. Digitakt is a #sampler and while it does have some fine #drum sounds included, it's a ton of fun to also record your own. Nord Drum has this flexible and very interesting #digital #sound engine that sometimes can sound somewhat lacking so often I use Elektron #Heat to add some umph. https://tehh.bandcamp.com/album/korduma-kippuvad-vastused
