Aaron Espinoza takes us through his Digitakt live setup and talks about turning found sounds into instruments is what inspires him to make music. Using a guitar, SP-404, and Digitakt as his sources, Aaron sums all sounds through the Digitakt and outputs it through a Fender Pro Reverb amplifier.

I really appreciate that companies like Elektron don't just pretend they're the "only" company that exists and that artists can use other samplers like SP404 effectively in their setup and it not threaten what they're about. That's really understanding musicians and not being precious about their brand

I got a Digitakt a month ago, I spend hours a day exploring sounds, sampling and controlling other machines, what I like is that each person can introduce their personality into the Digitakt , greetings from Chile

"Spend hours a day exploring sounds" Thats worth the purchase right there.

I had the pleasure of working with Aaron years ago and he is still as delightful as ever. I'm also a Digitakt user/lover now so seeing this come full circle made me smile.

Love seeing guitarists and songwriters with Elektron boxes. Acoustic guitar is how I started my music journey and integrating this gear with a traditional approach can be challenging but incredibly rewarding too. Love you Elektron, thank you for the beautiful tools you make. Wish I could come work for you but I have no programming or engineering skills!

I really dig this guys approach. Real open and views the world as his sound pallet and the digitakt as his brush.

I recently purchased a field recorder and I can't wait to incorporate it into my music. I love hiking and the sounds I hear when I'm feeling at peace out in the bush and I'm excited to try and share that feeling with the music I put out.

This is so great! I’ve been a fan of Aaron’s work for many years, since 2004 or so. Love seeing him geeking out over the digitakt and 404, which are my preferred music making boxes (along with a Yamaha QY70). Thanks for this, it was fun to watch :)

I have both an SP404mkII and a digitakt and the possibilities are endless. Sampling is so powerful and meditative! And to my experience digitakt is super easy to use unlike what most people say, especially comparing to the SP. The only thing I don't understand is why there is no goddamn arpeggiator on either of these.. it is such an important feature!

You seem like a real dude true audio addict. Me too. Over the past year I have really gotten into the practice of practicing on a schedule. 30 minutes minimum three times a day even if I’m just searching the menu. Sorry if this is long. I agree with the soulfulness of Elektron. That being said I really like the work flow. In your opinion (I am not a precessional or do gigs but I have a musical background that goes back 30 plus years. I have around 1500 bucks to spend on a big purchase before I go back into my normal rotation of buying, selling, using and trading my smaller effects and things around a few hundred dollars. Do I A. Buy a mk2 analog B. Buy a mk1 analog rtym and a mk1 analog four I plan on keeping whatever I get a least 2 years. Thanks for your help and good luck.

What do you have now?

B. I have the Mk2 RYTM and Mk2 A4 but went back and got the Mk1 of both so I can take them out live and not have such expensive gear around. The mk1s get the job done amazingly with next to no differences in sound.
