The theoretical number of possible algorithms can be assumed taking a piece of paper, drawing the 4 OPs in various combiniations and count. I didn’t do it for the Digitone, but it would go like this:
4 single OPs without interconnection, 2 columns of 2 OPs without interconnections, 2 columns of 2 OPs with interconnection, but this would equal to having a single OP and a tripple with interconnection … and so forth … ending with 4 OPs in one single column …
There are plenty of possibilities, which might not be adressed by the DN to keep things simple.
Alternatively compare the DN to full blown FM-synths like Native Instruments FM8, Image Line Sytrus, or Korg Mod7. Those even don’t prescribe to use “algorithms” and allow to interconnect the OPs more or less freely (including feedback), giving a tremendous amount of combinations.
Since Elektron decided to keep things easy and, I think, easy enough to play and change the sounds in a live situation without beeing a FM-specialist, they could decide to do without more algorithms, even if theoretically possible.
