Do we know if there will be a new look Octatrack MKII?

It tends to be on Wednesday now.

:drooling_face: yes please.

A new sequencer track to choreograph Elvis’s dance moves of course too :wink:

Elektron should definitely sell those in the accessories store! Incorporate a nightlight/alarm clock, job done

Agree, it feels likely. Just OB and +4 mono outs and some of the modern goodies that have been added would be enough. Plus make it black.

…once there were 100 octrackers…
…10 of them were octracking for real and to all it’s potential…
…30 of them were more than happy to use it just for certain missions only the octatrack can do…
…another 20 never wrapped their head around all it’s options but were happy anyways…
…40 heard about the myst, bought it, scratched it’s surface while bothering for more to come…

…another 100 still in line, that never used it, but love to talk about it’s future options anyways…
…oh, not to forget another 50 that bought it, sold it, regret it, bought it again, sold it again, regret it again, bought it again…

oops…now that does’nt match in total number relations anymore…i’m afraid…lost track…obviously…
well, somewhere here nearby must be the essence of it’s everlasting secret…
in black, in grey…and pink…keep on tracking…

I hope there will be no MK2 black, but more revised and mature product (let’s call it MK3) instead.

Imagine some sort of fusion of Digitakt with Octatrack. For example MIDI capabilities from Digitakt, bigger screen (can be yellowish), FX, and 8 knobs instead of 6. Additional features like pattern Direct Jump will be cool addition too. Basically, Digitakt in OT form factor with it’s sampling capabilities, more RAM for Flex or SSD card instead of CF, brand new/updated firmware etc…

I believe this is going to happen, I would trade my hamster for it!

Make it Mk3 and add switchable digital voices and earn millions :slight_smile:

So it’s decided, @charliebay sacrifices his hamster, Elektron gives us a MKIII Octatrack :100:

I’ll settle for a firmware update to let me play slices with a midi controller.

is it a good time to buy the Octatrack MK2 now or would you wait for the next elektron product?

It’s always a good time to buy an Octatrack if you are willing to put in the time to actually learn it, finish music with it, and assess personally if it is for you. A true assessment can only be done after enough hands on experience with it.
Are you willing to do that?

This process can take upwards of a year, so the best time to start is yesterday.

This is not a good box for someone with gas that buys something new every month, uses it for 10 days and then sells it.

The real question to ask is why ask your question, 16 minutes ago,
when 17 hours ago you’ve posted that you’ve already purchased it?

It’s always Tuesday!

(Except when it isn’t and then we don’t talk about it… and hope that nobody notices).

the deal fell through unfortunately this morning

Ah, a sign from above, then.

Yeah you would think so if you believe in that sort of thing.

I just saw one on Reverb for 900EUR in Finland.

:wink:
