Broken FM: Where Vintage FM Grit Meets Modern Sampling Power

FM synthesis changed everything in the ’80s—and now it’s reborn through the powerful stereo sampling engine of Elektron’s Digitakt 2.

With Broken FM: Digitakt 2 Edition, we’ve crafted an exclusive toolkit that captures the raw energy of classic FM synthesis and reimagines it for the next generation of grooveboxes.

Using our original Yamaha DX7 and Digitone 2, we recorded over 1 GB of expressive, punchy, and texture-rich one-shot samples—and for the first time in Digitakt history, every sample is in full stereo.

Expect detailed imaging, wide textures, and immersive sound layers previously impossible on the original Digitakt.

From glassy bells to distorted stabs, crunchy drums to haunting tones—this pack is built for deep creativity and hands-on performance.
