Rytm mk2 or DT + A4 mk2

Indeed (or almost, yes).
Sampling on AR is especially cool for resampling, IMO.
Something I used to do a lot on my SP404, and that is very cool if e.g. you want some heavy distorsion on some bass drums, while keeping the rest clean.

The dedicated Perf knob is also very convenient: it makes it possible to play with e.g. the delay feedback while tweaking some track parameters…

If that’s so, that’s cool.
If they could make a ARmkIII with the form factor/encoders/knobs of the OT mkII (but in black) with the features of the mk2 that would be killer.

I honestly do prefer the bigger size they feel more substantial and less cramped…
but I can understand why people like the smaller size because of room etc…
and black is always good. but I’m pretty happy with the form factor of the analog mk2s tbh

I think the bigger size makes sense for the pads.
I didn’t like the pads on my mk1 (I had to be brutal for them to react so in the end I turned off the velocity…) and it seems mk2 is really better on that side.
I wonder if they could fit the mk2 pads within the mk1 form factor.

All in all, ARmk2 is a huge improvement over the mk1 and it is a great machine for sure but the built-in angle, the size and the color(it is shallow I know haha) are kinda killing it for me. But still, I’m watching vids on it to convince myself, it’s not the machine, it’s me who’s wrong haha

If you don’t use Perf, scenes and it’s internal sounds why do you even own a Rytm?

Sounds like you’d be better off with a DT tbh

Because I like the way the samples sounds through the filters - I also resample the same sample with several filters and lfo and i build all my library in this way

I asked for it and here it is:

omg

But no new Os or features…

Oh they kept the angle and the size… too bad. 1 out of my 3 wishes though haha

Wtf haha! Maybe this is why the price went down in my local

I imagine there will be new OS in October (last update was October 2019). But don’t expect much super exciting.
I think they will likely just add trig preview, model:chance and maybe stereo USB audio (similar to the digi update from a few months back)

I think Joy, Happiness and Passion are considered Needs.
