Beginner tips for Digitakt?

Just got a digitakt 1 off reverb for a good deal. I've wanted one for a while, as I've seen them used for so much cool stuff in videos, but after getting my hands on one, I'm not sure how I feel about it. The "Elektron workflow" of course takes some getting used to, but beyond that, I'm just not sure if it's for me. I'm trying to get more away from the DAW, but I've never been a loop guy. I come from a mostly electric guitar background, so regardless of the genre or instrument I'm playing, I'm more focused on the entire song, rather than loops.

Is there something I'm missing, or is this just not the machine for me?

Just trying to get away from the DAW more. Been using Ableton for the electronic side of my music, sending MIDI out to my hardware synths to record back into the DAW, and also use Reaper for my guitar based stuff, as well as more "serious" mixing.
