AR Analog Rytm feature request thread

Elektron Gear Analog Rytm
#384

Keytracking for the filter would be really wonderful, especially when using the impulse machine with high resonance to “play the filter.” Useful on really any sound though. You can kind of fake it with P-locks but it’s not the same as banging out a melody in chromatic mode.

Speak of chromatic mode, I believe the Rytm would greatly benefit from a scale mode. Please. It would be so much fun, and you could reach an octave without shifting the page. I would use this all the time.

I agree that more options for the toms would be awesome. Even just a very simple synth that was designed for melodic sounds. The toms can do this alright but the decay lessens the higher your note is. Use the Tom machine’s oscillators (oscillator?) to create a synth that doesn’t have this decay limitation, with different waveforms if possible. Even just sine waves would be useful for me! Maybe this steps on the A4’s toes but I think it would be great. An FM tom machine would be really incredible :aw:

Not sure if it they’ve got more than one oscillator on the tom tracks, which it would obviously need for FM. Just a thought.

I’d also like to see more “Dusty” machines. I really like the dusty kick.

EDIT: Oops! Yeah. Silky. Not dusty. I have an impeccable memory, if you couldn’t tell.

Where are you finding these ‘dusty’ machines? I have no ‘dusty kick!’

This is a request for all Elektrons.

Loop the currently playing Page, and (in grid recording mode) Loop the currently selected page (once the sequencer comes around to it, if it is not already playing)

[Page + Yes] looks to be an open command not used for anything. (EDIT: or not! :wink: )
[Page + No] could suspend the command.

I do this manually, before I do a set… build in loops…
I used to do this live with my octatrack
then I changed this live routine to prepared loops in octatrack
I could do more wild things with it…

but yes, a recording trig one once, on the first beat
and then an adjustable loop length

would be nice

Ahem … :wink:

FWIW, and I don’t know if it could ever be possible, but if Elektron could offer sampling on the RYTM as a paid upgrade, I would buy it 100%. I love the Rytm MKI, the lack of sampling is perhaps the only thorn in its side.

Or as a trade-off, a simple, bare-bones Elektron Sampling app that could could tap OB outputs and throw the sample back to the Rytm in a snap, would be wonderful. I’d buy that too. I love Void’s SDS Drop, but I still have to muck about with a DAW elsewhere.

It’s not, ever [no ADC for inputs] … unless upgrading a MKi to a MKii counts as a ‘paid’ upgrade

Feature requests: Internal “re”sampling
#393

scale is a must. cause otherwise its too hard to get melodies that make sense other than sheer luck

#394

You can use more than luck!
Here is the major scale for example using the pads in chromatic mode, X pads are in the scale…
The pattern repeats for every octave (color) of pads:
0X0X
XX0X
X0X0

yes but what we want is an option to select different scales and the Rytm would average the notes out to the closest thing along the scale selected

#396

For sure, I acknowledge and support your requests…
Just thought I’d share an example since currently we don’t have that feature, and being a stranger in a far off land I have no idea if folks know how musical scales relate to the pads… :smiley:

-Multimap Mode for pattern triggering using MIDI notes! Come on!
-A better way to program fills.
-Paste pattern at the end of another pattern (or anywhere within another pattern)

+1 to multimap

Looks like we are getting a new synth engine at least :slight_smile:

Out of curiosity, what scales would you like to use?

#401

When???

MkII looks great! Analog clock in via the CV inputs would be a fantastic addition. That single feature would likely make AR the brains of my whole studio.

TrigMutes… Would lovelovelove if steps that had trigmutes on them were identifiable in rec mode without having to press trigmute button to see them… Maybe a rapidly flashing LED, or dimmed LED or something…
