Introducing Syntakt

[caffeinated]

Crikey. This is everyone some people have been asking for.

[DaveMech]

It’s seriously amazing. Been playing with it for a few weeks now. It sounds huge.

@asmartkid82

I suppose 2 LFOs per track, including the FX track

actually

• 1 × assignable LFOs per track

From Syntakt | Elektron

@pronk

If you order direct from Elektron I take it you get hit with a VAT charge now if you order to UK? Can’t find any UK retailers that have it on their store.

I ordered a couple of accessories from them towards the end of last year. VAT was included.

Things I love: The machines! The flexibility!

It can be so many things.
8 tracks of Model cycles chord machines with deeper control, 2x LFO per track, full envelopes, dual filters, p-lockable FX track. Or half a Rytm , plus new digital drum synth and bass/lead synth machines.

Or a mix between.

All with a tasty chunk of analog Heat drive, filter, and EG, but p-lockable!

There is an inverted envelope shape in the analog fx that I use as a master compressor. The drive is lovely.
I also love using some of the analog kicks with a bandpass filter for textures. Can even get kinda of vinyl pops and clicks out of these.

Can have you to 3 simultaneous analog DVCO machines.

Let it be known that I am not a fan of the Digi format. I’m a diehard OT MK1 user. However this box is something else all together. It transcends the Digis. I do love it.

That’s the endorsement I needed.

[asmartkid82]

I don’t get it, the manual and marketing tells “All synth tracks have two full-featured LFOs”

[Octagonist]

@brodykauff

I think some sort of hub for these machines would be a smart move -a p-lockable FX mixer for the Digitakt, Digitone, and Syntakt. With song mode!!

Like an Octatrack?

[tr909]

Confirmed two lfo’s per synth track.

[chapelierfou]

Also, absolutely nothing close to a “kit” ?
Just sets of sounds recalled with a pattern, right ?

[DonovanDwyer]

@circuitghost

But I’d be fine with even something like 4-8MB of sample playback that’d be enough for my Chase Bliss Mood noodles.

But I get it. This kit is very clear and precise and totally gets it right.

It’s just that I’m not going anywhere if I can’t bring my own sounds with me.

That’s what you Blackbox is for

[swanage_fan]

fucks sake i just bought an octatrack. i’m sure they’ll play great together but now i have two pieces of kit to learn instead of one. woe is me

[aloud]

Yes

[reeloy]

…yah…where’s the list of machines…???

ooook…i rtfm…

[DaveMech]

Two lfo’s per track, 2 lfo’s on the FX track. You can route any track through the analog FX block which contains an anlog overdrive and multimode filter (with great filter modes!). You can sequence and use lfo’s to modulate FX and trigger the FX block’s anbalog AMP envelope.

It’s impressive.

Also, the M1-M4 are modifiers. You can use them to retrigger, change velocity and 2 freely assignable.

[dolphins]

Since I already own the Analog Rytm I’m not sure if this is for me. But I’m eager to see the reviews.
