What's next for Elektron?

I remember a similar thread where i said effects… i was right :stuck_out_tongue:

Hear, hear! I hope Rytm mkII has re-sampling and at least basic MIDI sequencing, like the ability to make minor triad dub-techno stabs. That would go a long way towards making it more standalone or to be paired with a small affordable synth.

I’d like the ability to send midi scenes with the AR scenes. That would be awesome

Not big fan of disto but happy about product releases. Man, someone very close to Elektron told me last week something like “…oh, you also play guitars? maybe you’ll be happy” So then I asked what about an Octatrack2. He didn’t really answered but there was a smile on his face :gift:

I got 1500 US ready to go just in case this happens.

Was my perception, dont wanna create a false buzz :telephone_receiver:

No worries. The thing is the moment octatrack gets superseded by octatrack 2 the original will still have things the sequel won’t. That’s why I’m a hoarder. S1000 was the best S series sounding sampler in my opinion but the S3000 had a lot more features.

Too late !! :articulated_lorry:

Maybe in 3 years. Dont understand why everyone wants an OT 2 when they cant even figure out how to use OT.

A greater ability for multi-tracking would be the top of the list for me

Explain multi tracking

To individually record each of the octa traks on the octatrack

well, not everybody wants one and there’s lots of people doing good things with the OT. In my case OT is my last choice between the black boxes but I’d like to see what a V2 could give. I believe OT was a little revolution sampling talking, But yes, looks not very friendly to use

Maybe because people figured out what the OT can and can’t do to their workflow.
It’s not like it isn’t perfectible…

Yer I was being fascetious. I know good stuff happens by some people. I just dont see a new OT anytime soon considering elektron box lifecycles. Mnm and mduw lasted over 10 years. We have five more years or more of OT 1 potentially

I hope not…
Mine is showing signs of use…

Surely between Elektron/akai/roland/synthstrom/pioneer/korg/teenage engineering/ableton/NI… Someone has to put out something that rivals/beats OT sooner than 5 years!? Elektron are crazy if they sleep and spend too much time on AH/Drive kind of stuff then have to play catch up. I reckon we’ll see some big Elektron stuff in 2017…

If something like AH or Drive is a massive hit you can easily picture one/all the bigger companies bringing out rival units for cheaper. It’s the other insane/deep Elektron stuff that other companies seem to have no idea how to imitate/beat…

Edit - forgot behringer… They seem crazy hungry now and bent on nailing wishlists on future hardware etc… Wouldn’t surprise me if they do something comparable to OT/RYTM within the next year or two…
