Looking back, the OT has a sound with character and you either like this slightly lofi-like airy sound or you don’t.
I think it’s pretty safe to say that the sound from the OT sounds different than, for example, from the DT. The DT has this really nice punch and pressure when it comes to sound reproduction. On the other hand, I personally think that the samples from the DT can also sound very harsh. why is that always the case - rytm is the winner for me anyway
I once read somewhere from a guy who builds synthesizers that you couldn’t necessarily predict what the final sound would sound like. In any case, it has nothing to do with imagination, the devices all sound quite different. Old, proven analogue devices are still unbeatable?
OT is an amazing box, because all this MIDI control is part of it, etc.
Wouldn’t it just be smart for elektron to refresh this box again with new chipss perhaps, several inputs and outputs (really for each channel), OB compatibility and new effects? Except for the digital filter, I think that’s really nice?
and but really stay focused on the fact that OT is a pure midi control machine and sampler with decent sound reproduction and polyphony.
