I was buying MDs and MMs and Sidstations long before Cenk was even in the picture 
By the way, to me @Ess ’s synth design, musical (0-Day Sysex - open source music label) and communication (Model:Cycles Q & A with Ess) work is highly influencial too.

He is really really good but not my style tbh. His first Rytm demo was awesome though.
Im wondering who made the pattern presets on the Monomachine though because i’ve bought the Monomachine based on the soundcloud demos !

for the digitakt and i sought an octatrack for a while but that digtone is still something i want
My first Impression of Elektron were the monomachine and the analog four at a retailer. I did know nothing about the brand and the instruments. But the design looked immediatly attractive and useful to me, complex, yet intuitive and not trying to look like a synth from the 70s or 80s. When I found out the A4 is an analog groovebox I was sold. So no Cenk involved, but his presentations are great.
It’s listed in the Credits section of the manual.

I’d say Loopop has sold me way more gear than Cenk. I like really detailed reviews when I’m considering gear and he has a knack for explaining things in a very clear manner and shows extra tips and tricks too. While Cenk is obviously awesome, I find watching him quite intimidating rather than coming away thinking ‘I’ll be able to do that’

I never thought so many people would seriously answer my question, that was more of a joke but still, it’s fun to read your experiences

lol, same.
seems like a nice guy though, and very talented with the machines. almost too much, actually. I find it difficult to follow anything in his videos, he’s moving so damn fast. they’re nice for referencing what a new machine is capable of though.
Like a few others I bought the machines before Cenk was around, or since he has been around I often buy them as soon as they are available anyway, so he doesn’t really convince me to buy, because Elektron machines are great anyway.
However, I think he is by far the best product demonstrator I have seen, his enthusiasm comes across as genuine and he gets right into the nuts and bolts, also he seems to try to be a bit more diverse in his demos and presentations often showing a variety of styles - from delicate to chaos. Very professional and a great front man for Elektron.

He definitely made me consider Elektron gear. What a nice humble guy, I really like the way he demonstrates gear, one of my favourite videos on youtube is the Elektron history at Sonicstate. Watched it too many times already… actually you cannot watch it too many times, it is too good… and he “owns” each machine…

All my Elektron gear was purchased after watching Cenk do his thing in various online videos (Octatrack, A4, Heat, Digitakt, and Digitone).

His last track on ‘The Digitone Experience’ video.
I had to buy it, my brother just bought a digitakt and he wished he went for the digitone instead after watching this. At least we have both now.
