What's next for Elektron? (Part 1)

Sorry, I didn’t want to sound harsh.

I just hope that whatever they release next (someday, still not convinced it’s today) they choose another display technology. That was what the meme tried to express anyways.

Granted, OLED are an improvement from what they used in mkIs but they also seem to have their shortcomings and challenges (even when not plagued with a manufacturing defect).

Didn’t say it was intentional from Elektron to ship bad batches, didn’t say they weren’t fixing these units at a cost for them, and didn’t say they weren’t working on a solution with their current suppliers.

Now you know how we get screwed here in Canada. Not the worst, though (looking at you Australia).

Bummer, I was enjoying the thought they were pasture-raised, grass fed, small batch, extra-virgin Digitakts

Just pls make it sound NORMAL (like OP-1, MPC etc) = shut up and take my money!

I’m probably the only person on this forum that thinks DT/OT sound very bad. The low end is ok, the higher frequencies are weird - especially sounds like bells or higher notes on piano sound really bad to me. It’s like OT cuts these frequencies out. I hated that in OT and DT aswell.

So I hope they will fix it because the machines are genius.

I don’t even care that much if it stays mono - just the mono samples sound very different on my CPU and DT/OT.

Model:Cycles sounds perfectly fine to me.

You may want to consider checking the quality of your samples…

The DT sounds very generic to me. The beats are redundant and trying. Basic, boring, and lacks hooks. Oh wait. I make the beats. The DT sounds great. What I put in to it is trash. :wink:

Just noticed another Analog RYTM MK2 price hike. It now costs an even $2k at Perfect Circuit. I wonder if this is related to whatever changes Elektron are going through.
