So comparing pictures the front panel looks identical, outside of the color.
Is the Argon a two board system, like the Elektrons ? A UI board and a sound generation board. If so, and i realize no one of us common Elektronauts here would know, but do you suppose that both boards are the same ? In other words if you swapped code between a Cobalt8 and an Argon8’s would you change from one to the other ?
If so you know people will be asking for that.
Off-topic Aside: I’ve often wondered about this with the more general purpose Elektron boxes, like the Digitakt. If there was (magically) a different code for it, could it be a completely different machine ? Let’s say a Virtual Analog Digitakt, or a Wavetable Digitakt, or a Granular Digitakt ?
