Ive been meaning to make a post after discovering an “Easter Egg” on my Digitone 2 a couple weeks ago, but forgot until i read this thread.

I had a start up boom box looking graphic with a slight animation. The Boom Box had an Elektron symbol. Tried to grab my phone but it was already too late haha.

Anyone else found the boom box easter egg?

Here’s the one I’ve seen so far on elektron boxes.

Elvis is on the MD, says this machine is alright.

No way ! Looks like OT MKI.
But after a search it looks it was on MnM…

I made a lamp with it !
(I kept my MD black faceplate)
At least I have a permanent easter egg, never saw one after 10 years of Elektrons !

Yes, mine was on the Monomachine, I forgot what was on the original Octatrack.

That’s awesome you were able to capture the Elvis one on the MD, I only saw it briefly out of the corner of my eye when powering the MD on once. How did you do that?

Not that one, I can’t remember mine - it was so fleeting lol - but I remember it was kinda creepy. Maybe just a silhouette of a face or something?

Printed ! Got the picture on Elektronauts.
Orange filter. Leds behind.

If any ! The weird thing is the machine on your picture is an Octatrack…

Got “MORE IS MORE” on DN2 startup last night, but it seems like they’ve calibrated the timing on the screen flash to beat my grab-phone-open-camera-app-click reflexes by a single millisecond, across all the boxes.

Just fired up my DN2 and got this one! I feel so fortunate to have seen it, it was surreal and delightful. I didn’t have my phone handy or I would’ve grabbed a pic (it seemed to linger on the screen longer than the usual startup animation).

Elektron, you goofballs, I love you. Thank you for making such joyous machines.
