I feel like many companies are. Korg’s Motion Sequencing 2.0 is impressive, and in many ways goes beyond Elektron. Even the Monologue which is a bit old now had fun tricks like muting automation independent from muting notes.
The Typhon from Dreadbox brings in some “modulate the sequencer!” tricks to the desktop format, and I am excited to see what future products may bring.
The old Pro 2 and new Pro 3 also have tricks Elektron should adopt like playback direction that are common on even $100 Korg sequencers.
As you mentioned, the Roland TR-06’s master probability level that only applied to steps with probability set is a bit unique, as well.
My point is Elektron sequencers are amazing, but I hope they don’t rest on their laurels because the competition is moving forward with their sequencers in their own fun and interesting ways.
There is also a bit of a deep modulation renaissance going on right now that is fun to see. I hope Elektron rides that wave. My OTs are great but the other boxes could use more LFOs as well.
