New Syntakt Machine Predictions

wetpaste · 2024-10-16T15:29:18.123Z

In terms of workflow this is such a game changer. I’ve been wanting this on elektron devices for a LONG time. Huge improvement, nailing the details of a section without waiting for the whole 4 bars to loop over again can get tricky.

After some thinking I am surprised that we got all the analog machines and not a digital machine or two. Something to keep it seperate from the AR. But I’m really happy we got what we did.

…it’s x mas…everyyyybodyyyyy…!!!

but ooops, not one new digital machine…

The worst part of this update is that we now probably have to wait another 2years or longer for the next one
I think it’s still a decent update, though. I mean, who was really expecting any dramatic changes like polyphony or sampling

Too soon to speculate on the next update (which will, of course, be jam-packed with at least 8 new digital machines)?

old alarm clock noise machine (Baaanh Baaanh Baaanh)
smoke alarm noise machine (Eeeeeeeet Eeeeeeet)
construction truck backing-up noise machine (Deet Deet Deet Deet)
Netflix start-up noise machine (Buh-Blong!)
Your mom’s ringtone noise machine (insert your own mom’s ringtone here)

Law and Order noise?

Bwax · 2024-10-16T16:30:34.348Z

Nailed it. You must be on the beta team or something.

Btw. After the update my overbridge is not working anymore. Is anyone else having the same issue?

edit: Never mind, I just noticed there is a new Overbridge Version from today as well.

…st is now almost finshed.

only a few additional digi machines are still left to be invented and implemented…

Seinfeld intro bass guitar slap machine

Bwax · 2024-10-16T17:06:35.053Z

Hey, there’s a precedent here actually. They did put the preset “Jerry Bass” on the Digitone after all.

I get some folks were hoping for things that didn’t happen, but this is still a substantial update, IMO. Lots of new sequencing options and more colors to play with. Can’t wait to dive in

I think the concept of ST is creative. Get relevant sound that accompanies DT and DN in small dark trinity. Bermuda love triangle, whatever one prefers.

Love the update… I purchased the Syntakt in god damn April and I am still struggling to find time for it. Hopefully 2025 sometime, really looking forward to explore this seemingly amazing piece of gear!

Snipecatcher · 2024-10-16T21:03:03.832Z

Barely had any time, but did the update. What I’ve messed with so far is awesome

Moonwax · 2024-10-16T21:31:07.967Z

Soo. The update is not mind blowing, but quite solid. I think no more than 2 updates like this (hopefully with more focus on melodic digi machines) would make this box complete.

I think the maschine got improved quiete a bit, really love the euklid addon, as i use it on my rytm regularly - but i also wished the mod buttons gets more mileage, and yes new digital engines, or updated engines, and while the sound lab for the hi hat is nice, i use it layerd on the rytm with 909 samples … I would still favor a simple sample Maschine, with some classic hihat sounds on it.

Thank you Elektron !

Joostosan · 2024-10-16T22:49:48.781Z

the melodic stuff would be a nice add on indeed

Milkman · 2024-10-16T23:13:09.663Z

I was able to download the update, and I am extremely excited to try the new features! Before I get too far into it though, I noticed… when I went to try to log into to my account on elektron dot se to get the update, my account is gone?? I cant make a new account? “contact support” when I try to make one, using the same email? I just signed in 3 hours ago. Is the main elektron page broken? Fortunately the update was posted outside my account.

Well I’ll start…
As far as new Syntakt machines, I suppose we’ll get at least a couple of digital machines… some time in 2026…
