Curious to know if it can pass audio through the inputs without eating up a track!

Lately I have been having a love/hate battle with the RYTM. In some ways I love it â it sounds amazing, the obvious capabilities of the sequencer, and the depths you can take sound creation into. In other ways I hate it because I am often distracted by the depth of it - it can inspire endless tweaking that impedes the overall progress of making music (though perhaps thatâs just my own issue with perfectionism). I recently bought a âdumbâ drum machine and am finding it to be very helpful in overcoming endless tweaking syndrome - all you can do is make a beat, make some variations, and move on. Sure, itâs not as âcapableâ a drum âsynthâ, but it doesnât present itself as an eddy of creativity.
The DT seems to offer a lot of what I like about the AR, but at the cost of the analog synthesis. Iâm wondering more and more if thatâs a bad thing, perhaps even itâs a benefit.

hoping for a solution a bit more elegant than that.
fingers crossed

Iâm betting the Digi wonât be available until
June. Whenever someone in the know says âWeâre hoping for âŚâ or âWeâre working really hard to âŚâ, you know theyâre never gonna make it in time.

Thank you, Void, and Dataline, and everyone. I remain sold based on the demo, but I really need a sturdy hardware drum computer that looks really pretty and is a joy to touch, so this has been a must for me all along. My only concern is what other wonderful products Elektron might have waiting in the wings. Well, and how long I have to wait before Iâm Digitaktable.
While Iâm being all Nostraroman here, Iâm predicting a synth in the Heat / Digi-format. Either something FM-ish or wavetable-ish, or a synthesis digest of the Analog Four / Rytm engines.

I am curious how people will be integrating this with an octatrack, i think i will thicken my drum loops on the octatrack with some single shots off the digitakt, whatâs others views on the pairing?

@cuckoomusic mentioned this morning of having a one on one with Elektron. However, itâll probably be a few days at best for him to edit and upload a video of his time with the machine. The man is at Superbooth after all.
He also did a long solo Analog Keys review so saying he doesnât do them is incorrect.
Just remember, Nick will surely knock it down a notch for lack of PWM.

are you really saying you use micro timing to add swing? Thatâs nuts⌠just go to trig menu and by default every other trig has a swing trig set⌠thatâs basic swing right there. With one knob you have control over all of them, no need to plock.
Of course if you want crazy per step swing changes that would be better done in microtiming but thatâs not what i would call swing.
OK iâm starting to change my tune on the DT. The more I think about it the more the backlit buttons seem indispensable. Not having that is a big annoyance with the current boxes⌠love to be able to fiddle with things in no/low light and i can imagine it would be great for live club environments.
Mutes being in the pattern is awesome⌠there is no other device of theirs that has that is there? (just plocking volume control is required?)
