What can we expect from a new firmware?

[iskin]

I really like the device, but there are a number of inconveniences that very much interfere with working with the device, such as the absence of a filter (or EQ), the separate effect of delay, the absence of envelopes in all machines.
Is it possible to hope for the appearance of at least some of this?

[PekeDorty]

No. As we know Elektron doesn‘t care about what the users want / need. '/sarcasm

What type of meta discussion do you want?

[iskin]

I want to understand whether something fundamentally new is being prepared in the firmware for sound generation or firmware changes will concern for the most part bug fixes and sequencer improvements

I thought it was a fact…

If you have a potential feature request, you can contribute here:

Model:Cycles Feature Requests Thread

It’s been announced for hours and there was no feature request thread. Here it is Mod Edit : This is for users to discuss and ponder if ideas have workarounds or are possibly implemented already, it may be accessed periodically by Elektron but for formal considered suggestions and to guarantee they are seen, email your suggestions to feature-request@elektron.se

You might find it useful to read some answers from one of the designers:

Model:Cycles Q & A with Ess

I got a ton of notificiations of replies/tags in the Model:Cycles threads but I’m unable to find all of them, but I do want to answer all your questions so… Fire away in this thread and I’ll try my best to answer all your questions.

i’ve been using elektron devices for 5 or 6 years now.
what can i say : elektron updated the octatrack with new features 9 years after the release , and not just the mkii, the mki also.
I have the digitone since day one, features will arrive but you have to be patient and use the machine as is, but one thing about Elektron , the devices are superb , i always manage to finnish my tracks with it, they’ re inspiring and Elektron do care about the people using their stuff and are always doing their best to make the devices the better they can, you just have to be patient and make some music !

I am confident (and hopeful) the USB volume out can have negative values instead of only positive.

Any news concerning new firmware for M:S & M:C ?
I am still expecting something before the 9 years mentionned here, somes fixes and improvements raised by usage.
I won’t enumerate here my few requests, mainly related to midi, they are already in the concerned threads.

No. Elektron generally does not publicly pre-announce firmware updates.
