Anyone using the Digitone, Digitakt, or other similar Elektron boxes know if there is a basic peak meter somewhere in the UI?

Or is that a kind of thing that makes no sense to use on a synth and instead only on a recording target or destination elsewhere? I'm trying to figure something out in the context of the compressor, in terms of a reference point to adjust each track.

Such a power move from #Elektron to create a simple #wavetable #synth for their #audio #sampler #Tonverk in firmware 1.3. In its essence it's a creative development of the single cycle waveform synth engine in #Digitakt and I was hoping to see something like this back in the day, but then the songmode and Loopcloud integration updates happened and it all went to downhill from there.

Still, good that they now did it. Tonverk starts to feel more and more like a real instrument. But no Overbridge

#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 🫠

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?
