This release adds STRING-fast, a second build of STRING for people who also run digihealth. STRING itself sounds and works exactly as in 0.6.1.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. This modifies your instrument's firmware. Back up your projects and sounds, and keep a stock OS 1.53 file for recovery.

Which one?

Needs What it does
digistring-0.7.0.elemod (STRING) core The STRING machine.
digistring-fast-0.7.0.elemod (STRING-fast) core + digihealth Same machine; while digihealth's FAST AUDIO is on, its per-sample loop runs from the Digitakt's fast on-chip memory.

On one Digitakt, five STRING tracks played without crackles at about 95% DSP load with FAST AUDIO on, and went over 100% with it off.

Install one of the two, not both: elekloader refuses the pair.

digihealth for STRING-fast

digihealth is a separate GPL mod, not part of this project:

Install

  1. Download one of the .elemod files below (and digihealth for STRING-fast).
  2. In elekloader, select your own stock OS 1.53 with Change stock firmware.
  3. Install from file, enable it with core 2.1 (and digihealth for STRING-fast; Sophie can be enabled too), Build Firmware.
  4. Send the generated .syx with Elektron Transfer.

Upgrading from 0.6.x: replace the old .elemod and rebuild; saved sounds are unaffected.

The .elemod files contain only this project's code, not Elektron's firmware. More on the website.
