    DIGITONE II ONLY — USE ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. Installing modified firmware may void your manufacturer warranty. It can render your instrument unusable; recovery is not guaranteed. Do not install the generated image on any other machine. Read the full disclaimer.

    DigiRust is a macOS patcher for Digitone II official OS 1.12 → DigiRust. The instrument's internal OS version remains 1.12.

    The author's focus is IDM, rhythmic noise / power noise, and electroacoustic music. These tools favor unusual sounds, textures and structured experimentation. Conventional groovebox workflows, hip-hop beats and mainstream beatmaking are outside the design scope.

    • DigiRust-1.2.0-macOS.zip: universal Apple Silicon/Intel patcher and user documentation.
    • DigiRust-1.2.0-source.zip: patcher source, pinned recipe/additions, artwork, notices and documentation.
    • SHA256SUMS.txt: checksums for both archives.

    No complete official or modified firmware is distributed. Supply your own exact official Digitone II OS 1.12 .syx. DigiRust creates a verified copy locally and never connects to or updates an instrument.

    Features

    Patch, kit, pattern and phrase generation; Abstract, IDM, Rhythmic Noise, Melodic and guarded Free sound paths; pattern Density and rhythmic Brutality; sound Brutality; varied pattern structures/tempos; compressor generation; Control All macros; drone latch and Perform Kit restoration. Path availability varies by generator—read docs/FEATURES.md.

    DigiRust adds independent Kit Generator Brutality for IDM and Rhythmic Noise, using contrasting bars, DATA editing/cancel and repeated YES generation. Both start at 35% and reset on reboot.

    Developer hardware report

    The developer reports that DigiRust modified firmware has been thoroughly tested on a real Elektron Digitone II and is currently running on that instrument without any observed issues.

    This records the developer's experience on that instrument. It is a factual report, not encouragement to install, an endorsement, a guarantee of safety or compatibility, or a prediction of results on another instrument. The warranty and use-at-your-own-risk warnings remain applicable.

    Verification and limits

    The curated source was rebuilt and produced the exact pinned DigiRust output. Local checks include 18 patcher integration tests, native GUI and extracted-archive reconstruction, and firmware host/CPU/emulated boot and panel tests. This does not establish physical sound quality, timing or deployment safety for DigiRust.

    The app is ad-hoc signed, not notarized or Developer ID signed. Local runtime testing was on Apple Silicon, macOS 27.0 (build 26A428). macOS 11 is only the minimum compilation target, not a tested version. Intel Macs and other macOS versions are unverified. Installation is a separate decision. See the README, validation guide and retained notices for compatibility, recovery limits and attribution.
