Perfect Combination of Gear Does Exist

Digitakt II is nearly perfect machine when it comes to music production and live performance. That can be said for Digitone II as well and it's stellar polysynth.

They each have their quirks but overall, any of these 4 machines would be enough to make any type of album - however, some devices do some things better.
