RUMOR : Elektron Mixer thing

Bah! Mixer is not Mixer in Swedish. That’s a låneord goddammit!

It will obviously be called…

BLANDARE

Taste that! Elektron Blandare :slight_smile:

Needs more thought put into it.
Hopefully that’s what Elektron is doing.

It’s just a photoshop job, didn’t invest much time in it.
It’s actually has as many inputs as you need :wink:

What’s that 8 menus with 21 encoders?

—168 parameters? Per track? Of which there are 6/7?

1008 parameters to encode in this box?!

Sounds like a programming nightmare!

We’re going to need a lot more parameter-lock allowances.

Come to think of it, an Elektromixer would be somewhat apt for the company’s double decade anniversary, as if to say, so many machines are now available and here is a cool machine to mix them all.

And possibly a stereo track recorder to capture recordings up to 30 minutes in length, along with effects specifically for mastering such as Linear Equalisation … and a simple connection protocol (Octatrack style) as an external drive for easy access from the computer.

I somewhat agree though.
After putting these concepts together, there’s got to be a more elegant solution.
I feel like creating modern new designs could take forever, just analyzing what works and what doesn’t.
Thinking about what makes some machines more fun than others.
For example, Tempest is really fun, the OT is really fun. How could a mixer/recorder thing be a pleasure to work on.
Sure would be fun to work in Elektrons R&D department.
I’m really hoping to see them realease something different in the MKII format.

Somebody already made that mock up.
You should try one.

That screen is WAY TOO BIG!! :joy:

Ya know, I completely agree.
I thought about no screen for a long while.
However a tiny screen, for saving projects, preferences etc, I’d much rather see that.
More room for better UI arrangement.

At this point I dont really like multi layer mode stuff.
I like dedicated controls.
However, I know there’s a sweet middle ground somewhere.
Elektron is really close on some boxes, I would say the OT is the black sheep, it’s just so bad ass.
I’d actually like to see Elektrons version of an 8 channel DB4.

A mixer would be awesome I pre ordered the tone match from boss hoping it will be awesome

I did not want to wait for Elektron anymore and recently got the DB4, such a relieve after dealing with transition tricks for years with the OT!

  • now I use the OT for what it is really good, messing up samples
  • DB4 has 4 loopers for individual transitions between patterns or machines using the K2 and input matrix
  • the DB4 makes the A4 mk1 sound suddenly 10 times better
  • the effects are incredible
  • the filters are fantastic
  • a lot of flexibility with the input matrix giving access to 12 stereo channels of which you can use 4 at the time live while having 4 loops running to mix in, so you can mix 8 stereo sounds at the time + 1 line/mic input
