Duh, of course, I was stupid, you can onlymdo unison now. And yes, with offset tuning you could do a limited version of poly.
Thank you., I’ve seen that but i thistseems quite conventionnel. I would love for example a few sample chains to save some memories space
Have, You Considered the pack redstripdown, it’s supposed to be quite sophisticated ?
Of course I would love the machine drum back, but it’s way too big here for me not to get lost in there
Thank you !
Limited by what exactly? You can even include microtonal stuff. The chord or stack trigger makes a lot of things easier.
Bachian poly (more than one melody against each other with meaningful intervals and tensions and harmony) was always possible.
Now all we need is samples in Digitone 2 and synthesis in Tonverk

Or just have some numbered labelled folders with a couple of packs and label either the project or pattern with the number of the sample pack used, and just swap them before opening the project

Heads up, the Elektroid dev might need a few days to catch up. Just used it to update the OS but after reconnecting it doesn’t give you the samples folder.

Oh that is awesome. Thanks for bringing this up. I never tried making FX scenes yet but it’s in the forefront of my thoughts now.

I have Tonverk and Analog Rytm so honestly am not that interested in Syntakt’s sampling vs the other great new features, I loaded up some x0x and Perkons samples I have just to try it out but will likely not use that machine very much tbh.
Keep in mind that the samples are limited to 5 seconds which is basically like a drum fill or decent pad sound at best, and you can’t control the start/end times so sample chains don’t open it up like they do on a Digitakt. It’s an interesting engine nonetheless but it becomes somewhat a function of your creativity and willingness to plan out the samples and detail them accordingly; maybe someone will post a sample pack that’s more your speed but I’d give it a couple of months before anything specifically designed for use on a Syntakt hits, and even then a lot of the samples will be somewhat utility-focused because you only get the 65 for the entire machine (a single global sample pool).

Joey gets right into it. Love it. Thanks.

Just wanted to highlight this again. As mentioned earlier, we are aware about the Transfer compatibility issues with older computer OS and we will look into it.

Ok new here so sorry if already mentioned but found two bugs;
One is now the sound pool no longer has strike through text over incompatible sounds for the track you’re on, that was really useful definitely need that back
Another is my trigless trigs are not retriggering the lfo when param locked to reset the start point….

“Gift and curse” seems the perfect description
I see TS machine very good for percussive sound, maybe noise, short decay bass, but not sure about synth and pad/soundscapes/fieldrecordinga sound.
But it kinda makes sense to me
I would like to try

I agree with your point!
I find that that’s what I’m using it for the most - pads, thick evolving synth oscillators that can be molded into new sounds.

What an impressive update! All the QOL additions are very welcome! Unexpected but so desired: Track layering, selective ctrl+all, prepare mutes, notes transition in scale (awesome!!), value snapping with p-locks, all these personalize options and many bug fixes.
And samples on Syntakt, who would have thought. Now we can all finally have the same 909 hihat sample that has been used so much in the last 25 years of music! 
Thank you @Elektron!

You guys are insane, delivery after delivery for years. I’m actually getting into the game again and sampling (even if “only” 64 samples) makes this machine an absolute win for me.
Just a question:
Does the twin-machine also loop samples? I want to load in some one shot waves to have another synth voice, is this possible? Found answer thx. @igors48

@Noizeguerilla second sample can be looped

Great update…
I looked at backing up projects briefly last night, and wondered if anyone knows if the sample slots have to be replicated exactly (the samples in the exact same order and slots as the original project) when loading projects back into the Syntakt from back-ups? I can imagine because there’s only a small amount of sample slots that these will be changing all the time, especially starting new projects, so it could turn into a bit of a mess if the samples aren’t somehow ‘contained’ with each project on backup.
Transfer allows you to copy projects and samples to a destination on your comp, but I can’t see a way that it keeps these projects ‘intact’ copying the samples over with the projects in the one project package… unless I’m being stupid?

not good if so…please report in bug thread, thanks

I’ll need some help from Syntakt users as I have no idea about the implementation of the sample management.
Let’s discuss this in our own thread in https://www.elektronauts.com/t/elektroid-a-gnu-linux-transfer-application-for-elektron-devices/.
Of course, the same invitation applies to @mabelsound and anyone else wanting to contribute one way or another.
I’ll post something there later on today.
