Elektron Digitone II

A capable pro-tier digital FM synthesis workstation with 16 voices of polyphony and Elektron sequencing. It's built for producers who want programmable digital and FM tones with deep sequencing in one box. Analog-warmth purists are the clear skip here — this is a digital instrument by design, so if you're chasing the character of analog circuitry, look to an analog synth instead.
