What gear would you like to see elektron do next?

[Sternenlicht]

A DJ Mixer with looping function, team up with Allen & Heath… go go go.

[lancet2000]

An 8 voice polyphonic (keyboard) sampler with analog filters and sequencer.

It is so frustrating that there’s no modern alternative to the akai s series except ITB software.

A manual for OTmk2

[konfront]

I meant a manual written in a more approachable style. For the common man, so to say

[jefones]

A polished version of Merlin's OT guide here

As you should all be aware, a few years back @Merlin wrote an excellent guide to understanding how to approach the complexity of the Octatrack. It certainly helped me get to grips with the relationship between patterns and parts, which I think trip up a lot of new users. Consider it essential reading alongside the user manual. After reading it again recently, the technical writer in me (it’s what I do for a living) thought it could be tidied up to enhance readability. I’ve left the meat of the …

[konfront]

Wow.

Thanks for this.

MK2 manual FTW

[sezare56]

MKII and MKI share same OS.
If you want to talk to MKII owners only, so be it.

Edit. Maybe overreacting, but some MKII owners seem to think MKI is totally different and much worse…

[jefones]

Your welcome, merlin’s Guide is a must read for any OT owner. Mki or mkii. Especially if you’re looking for a manual written “for the common man” regarding OT functionality.

Elektron need to finally redesign the user interface for their next release.
8 knobs aren’t anywhere near enough

[konfront]

Oh no. It was a play on words. MKI and MK2 units (hardware) and MKI and MK2 manual (paper/PDF)

[mattp]

I would have thought with all their new skills around Overbridge, Overhub and AH that a multi-input audio interface could be on the cards. Same hardware format as the DT/DN.

[man909]

I’d like to see them make a mixer

[SLiC]

I would like to seem them make an official battery pack for the Digitone etc…exact same size, quite thin, fits on bottom to the vesa screw holes…so simple, would make the Digitone/Digitak and Heat portable without changing the form factor much and having to do a makeshift 'stick the battery to the base.

Having an official battery pack would not only sell battery packs but would more units as portable devices (could even be a bundle price)

[plusn]

Thats a brilliant Idea! Since cool days are coming maybe they can add Elektron Softshell Jackets…for mobile jamming outside

[Bermandswale]

Elektron please make a eurorack sequencer. A man can dream can’t he?

Eurorack format
CV ins and outs
PLocks

[plusn]

Besides a simple multitrack Tape Recorder…i would Like an multi FX unit to See. That Has a six Mono Inputs Mixer section and cased in Analog Heat Like Box with five FX that can be chained or parallel used.

[hoppy303]

A semi-modular drum machine, something to rival the Soma Pulsar 23

[AikiGhost]

So does anyone think were ever going to get a MD 3 or digidrum with all the patch loading and performance tools of the new boxes? I for one truly hope so.

[sezare56]

For sure, but when?
