Product details
The Elektron Digitone (8-voice) is the original iteration of Elektron’s acclaimed FM synthesizer. It provides exactly 8 internal voices of digital polyphony that are dynamically shared across 4 multitimbral synthesizer tracks.
Because the unit is a standard desktop module that relies on a dynamic architecture, managing those 8 voices is the most important part of mastering the instrument's workflow.
How Dynamic Voice Allocation Works
The Digitone does not lock 2 voices to each track. Instead, it uses a pool where any of the 4 tracks can grab available voices as needed. [1, 2]
The Math: If Track 1 plays a massive 4-note chord, you have 4 voices left. Track 2 can play a 3-note melody line, leaving 1 voice for a bassline on Track 3. [1]
The Sound Tails Constraint: If a synth patch has a long envelope release time (like a sprawling ambient pad), the voice stays active even after you let go of the key. If you trigger new notes before the old ones fade, the system will hit the 8-voice ceiling quickly. [1, 2]
Voice Menu & Stealing Rules
When you play a 9th simultaneous note, the Digitone has to decide which sound to cut off. You can customize how it handles this via the dedicated Voice Menu: [1, 2]
Voice Stealing Modes: You can configure the system to prioritize tracks (e.g., ensuring Track 1's kick drum never gets cut by Track 4's chords) or use basic rules like stealing the oldest note first (Cycle), the lowest note (Lo), or the highest note (Hi). [1]
Voice Allocation & Locking: To prevent a rogue track from hogging all resources, you can permanently lock a set number of voices to a track (e.g., capping Track 4 at exactly 2 voices so it can never steal notes from your lead tracks). [1]
Unison: The Digitone allows you to stack multiple voices on a single note for ultra-wide, thick sounds. Doing this uses up your voice count much faster (playing a single note with 4-voice unison takes up half the pool).
