MrDataline, great to see and hear your take and your (as always) stellar performance on yet another Elektron instrument. This one is a definite “buy” from me, just like your lovely Digitone work.
Fair point about a lot of the Syntakt being repackaged stuff from other Elektron devices.
But for me, not owning those particular sound source devices (M:C, MD, AR, etc) where Syntakt draws from, it’s all fresh, in a sequencer workflow I’m already used to.
If I had a M:C and/or an AR, or like you, had mastered every Elektron and its ways, I imagine the Syntact could disappoint in this regard.
As it stands though, I feel like I’m getting the “Captain’s Platter” sampler plate from a menu of Elektrons I don’t have, when all I had originally wished for was a few analog voices in a Digi format to round out my DT/DN pair.
Again, not disagreeing with you at all, just pointing out that even if Syntakt is kind of a remix, it’s mostly all new and fresh to me.
