Sorry for not being more specific…inadvertently changing an LFO destination can be very LOUD. That is my major concern.

Maybe they should change the way it works entirely. Make it so turning the knob does nothing, instead you have to press it first. No need for confirmation or timeout. If you use another knob the change is committed and the popup menu goes away.

How about just making the initial turn to open the LFO assignment menu less sensitive and removing the timeout completely.
Once the menu is open the knob regains normal sensitivity.
Confirm with yes, discard with no.

That’s probably the best solution that hardly anyone would notice, and would only benefit from

Agree with this. I have no issue pressing YES when I change the LFO, but the LFO popup timeout adds stress when I’m choosing a destination. I even scroll it back and forth to try to keep it open.
Maybe the click encoder could be used to toggle the behavior if the LFO popup stays open, or closes automatically (like a “pin” and “unpin” action).

While we’re on the subject of timeouts, I also hate the timeout for pattern select.
Sometimes I just want to switch patterns while jamming, especially when using multiple machines.
And sometimes I’m waiting for a pattern to loop around and it times out just before I want to select a pattern.
I would like an option that just keeps the pattern select open, also after selection.
Maybe a global no timeouts option?

Elektron gear always gets lots of interesting updates and usually few big ones as well, but I feel like Digitone has been left into shadows a bit.
Just give it 6 operators and it will make waves! New algorithms you could get from 6op would explode and Digitones would fly off the shelves!

I’d like to see Pattern-Change-Options like in the AR and AF. Would be really cool.

After seeing a Syntakt demo: I’d like to get a Chords mode like the one in the Chords machine on Syntakt, maybe with Chords as 1-2 p-lockable parameters.

Requesting a personalization option —REC MODE TRACK CLEAR ONLY or CONFIRM PATTERN CLEAR — a safety that protects against unintended PATTERN CLEAR or PATTERN TRIG CLEAR while in REC MODE, for 
newbies like me. (It’s IMHO “just easier than it needs to be” to clear the pattern trigs in “the heat of the moment”…)
REC MODE TRACK CLEAR ONLY could limit FUNC-PLAY when in ANY REC MODE to only clear the TRACK. Leave PATTERN CLEAR or PATTERN TRIG CLEAR to the more labor-intensive methods, like entering the PATTERN MENU and choosing CLEAR: manual section “10.7.3 CLEAR”.
CONFIRM PATTERN CLEAR could pop up a yes/no dialog requiring confirmation before clearing pattern trigs while in REC MODE.
Because: it’s buzzkill when I clear my working pattern by not noticing which record mode I’m in when I hit FUNC-PLAY, intending to clear a track. By the time I notice I’ve done this, sometimes it’s too late to undo. Then I’m left scratching my head about whether the pattern was saved to the TEMP SAVE or not, or whether it was saved to the project or not (probably not), plus philosophizing about what it means that the Digi boxes and Model boxes are all “saving everything all the time” but I just lost my pattern by not focusing on which REC mode I was in…?
In the meantime, I could get better about doing TEMP SAVE more often… but every time I lose my work I put the DN aside for awhile…
I turned to the manual for help, but the section under 10.10.6 COPY, PASTE AND CLEAR OPERATIONS is ambiguous. I’m going to post about this in the documentation thread.

Losing work has definitely made me a lot more conscious of which mode I’m in 
I don’t temp-save nearly enough…

Seriously, I don’t get why the button combination for pattern clear is not just PTN + PLAY(Clear).
Any other combination doesn’t make sense.

Doesnt FUNCTION+CLEAR wirk for you? One step less.
The problem with FUNC + PLAY(Clear) is that it is double assigned depending on REC mode.
It makes no sense at all, while PTN + PLAY(Clear) does nothing at the moment.

True. I see what you mean.They could assign a singular function pattern clear. Hopefully, next update

I’ve been working with my DK again lately, and man, the whole “brand new everything” upon pattern change is such a drag.
I propose a “continuous mode” or something like that, where the tracks/voices/all the other sound settings remain the same in a project unless you change them, just like the RYTM, OT, and A4.
This would also allow one to tweak parameters continuously and avoid jumping to saved values upon pattern change, which has donked me up dozens of times.

Hey guys, do you believe this thread is even read by Elektron team, or it is just a blackhole where our fancy pink unicorns disappear forever ? I’d be curious to know how many wishes have been granted.
If they are listening, give us a sign!
Please, answer our prayers! Please bless upon us ARP over Midi, the same keyboard folding/scales as found in the Syntakt, and whatever else that’s been asked and makes sense by the other Electronauts…
Yadayda
amen
