SOPHIE's sound design (Digitone or Monomachine?)

As mentioned in the interview Elektron did, I think her sound design is basically Monomachine + software. Some sounds are more obviously from the Monomachine than others but it’s hard to tell what the proportion is. And how heavily processed the MM sounds are. She plays live with a pair of CDJs and a Monomachine so the raw sound is clearly a significant part of a lot of her music.

The most distinctively MM stuff uses parameter slides a lot. I love the sounds you can get with that. There’s an awful lot of stuff you can do on the MM that you could never replicate on the Digitone.
