Syntakt Fish on Startup

Elektron are known for having Easter egg boot screens happen pretty rarely… I want to say it took me 3 years of pretty consistent use of the digitakt before I got that one. But yeah the rarity makes it pretty much impossible to capture them on camera.

Haha, I do wonder if this is a reference to the thread commenting on the “salmon” colour of the buttons. Officially the colour scheme is “strawberry” though!

Also wonder if it was the mighty dopefish Easter egg.

I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH THE FISH!

The fish graced me today as I booted up ST. I did not know of the fish. The fish is now life.

The Dopefish is an old Commander Keen easter egg. Have no idea if it has any relation, but it came to mind when I read this.
