The Digitone II synthesizer is an evolution of modern digital sound design, taking inspiration from some of the most innovative polyphonic synthesizers of the last few decades. By blending advanced synthesis techniques with a versatile and accessible interface, the Digitone II delivers a rich sound palette for musicians and producers. It builds upon the legacy of FM synthesis, as made famous by earlier synths like the Yamaha DX7, but introduces a wider range of synthesis engines that cater to a more modern, experimental sound environment.
Elektron, the Swedish manufacturer behind the Digitone II, is renowned for its cutting-edge electronic instruments and its dedication to empowering musicians. Since its founding in 1998, Elektron has been at the forefront of the synthesis and sequencing world, with products like the Octatrack, Analog Rytm, and the original Digitone earning respect from professionals globally. Known for their robust hardware, intuitive workflows, and deep customization options, Elektron continues to push the boundaries of what electronic music gear can do, and the Digitone II is no exception. Their commitment to high-quality, performance-ready gear is evident in every aspect of the Digitone II’s design and functionality.
The Digitone II is a polyphonic digital synthesizer with 16 voice polyphony, making it ideal for creating rich, layered soundscapes or complex sequences. Its four distinct synthesis machines—WaveTone, Swarmer, FM Tone, and FM Drum—give you immense flexibility in crafting your sound. Whether you’re looking for warm analog-like tones, complex frequency modulation, or experimental textures, the Digitone II has you covered.
One of its standout features is the swappable filter architecture. Each voice is equipped with a digital base-width filter as well as one additional filter, which can be selected from a range of options including Multi-mode, Comb+, Comb-, Lowpass 4, EQ, and Legacy LP/HP filters. This diversity allows for precise control over your sound shaping, from subtle filtering to aggressive tonal sculpting.
The Digitone II also includes three assignable low-frequency oscillators (LFOs) per track, providing a deep modulation matrix that allows for creative expression and dynamic sound manipulation. This, combined with advanced effects like delay, reverb, chorus, bit reduction, sample rate reduction, and digital overdrive, ensures that the Digitone II is a complete sound design tool.
For those who enjoy modular and generative music creation, the Digitone II’s workflow is designed with flexibility in mind. The 128-step Elektron sequencer now includes four trig modes, song mode, and a powerful note editor, all of which make composing and arranging patterns straightforward. The addition of a Euclidean sequence generator offers further potential for rhythmic creativity, especially useful for experimental compositions.
The Digitone II is built with live performance in mind. Its 16 audio tracks can be used for both MIDI and synth tracks, giving you control over a complete live setup or studio session from a single device. The built-in 128-step sequencer allows you to create intricate patterns with parameter locks, trig conditions, trig chance, and micro-timing, giving you the ability to push the limits of creativity. The individual pattern lengths and time scale multipliers per track provide unprecedented control over your arrangements, enabling polyrhythmic and polyphonic sequences to coexist in exciting ways.
In performance mode, you can access four different trig modes, a keyboard mode with 36 scales, and the ability to switch between velocity-sensitive tracks with ease. Whether you’re crafting ambient soundscapes or intricate rhythms, the Digitone II delivers versatility and musicality at every step. The addition of powerful effects like Supervoid Reverb and Panoramic Chorus further enhance the performance possibilities, adding depth and dimension to your tracks.
Elektron has equipped the Digitone II with top-notch hardware, designed to endure the rigors of both studio work and live performances. The device features a high-quality 128x64 pixel OLED screen that offers clear and detailed feedback even in low-light environments. The sturdy steel casing ensures durability while maintaining a compact form factor that makes it easy to transport. Weighing just 1.48 kg and measuring 215 mm x 176 mm x 63 mm, the Digitone II is lightweight yet rugged.
The I/O section of the Digitone II is just as robust as its sound engine. With two balanced ¼” audio output jacks and two balanced ¼” audio input jacks, it integrates seamlessly into any studio or live setup. A stereo headphone jack and a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port add convenience for both personal and professional use. The unit is also MIDI-compatible, with In/Out/Thru ports, ensuring it can control or sync with other MIDI-enabled gear with ease.
If you are looking for a powerful, versatile synthesizer that is equally suited for studio production and live performance, the Digitone II is an excellent choice. Its combination of deep synthesis capabilities, powerful sequencing features, and high-quality effects makes it a must-have for both electronic music producers and experimental sound designers. The device’s ability to handle complex polyphonic arrangements, coupled with its streamlined workflow and intuitive interface, makes it easy to unlock new sonic territories.
The advanced modular workflow and expanded sequencing features set the Digitone II apart from many other synthesizers in its class. Whether you’re looking to create lush ambient textures, driving rhythmic patterns, or experimental soundscapes, this synthesizer gives you the tools to bring your musical ideas to life.
Backed by Elektron’s reputation for quality and supported by a 3-year warranty, the Digitone II offers not only innovation and creativity but also reliability. If you're serious about sound design and want a synthesizer that grows with your music, the Digitone II is the perfect investment.
