Missing the key point though, “in an Elektron box”.
I’m well aware of Max, M4L integration into Ableton hardware and the various Raspberry Pi things you can get to run max/Puredata patches on. The conversation is about what Elektron does next and what we would want from that.
If the low end stuff is selling well, I’d hope that a refresh to the Model range is one the cards.
Samples wish list: simple AD envelope (attack could even be Function+Decay), USBc class compliant audio, 128MB ram please. Stereo samples nice but not essential, LFO to multiple destinations or even a second LFO would be lush.
Cycles: same HW improvements and a cut down TV wave type machine perhaps?
Edit: and make them grey
With the move to a linux-based platform with the tonverk, I would love Elektron to explore producing an open-hardware platform, in the same spirit as the TBD-16/Korg-NTS:
The groovebox “control” core would be there, with user-uploadable machines akin to what korg proposes with their Logue/NTS SDK. It doesn’t even have to be fully open, even limited user slots for machines would be fine.
this is what im saying. i want every synthesis innovation placed inside an elektron box
A video about « how to replace sticky buttons on your Elektrons ».
Just pop them out on one edge with a thin flat screwdriver (or something similar made of rigid plastic would be more ideal to prevent the possibility of scratching).
I think it would look like another screens worth of content on the DT2.
Please.
EDIT keeping my eye on the new-in-beta step sequencing on the bento for exactly this reason. Step sequencing combined with parallel track view.
A hundred bucks (including a 29$ shipping) for a set of new buttons for the Syntakt, 
.
Nuts!
I’m wondering if Elektron could send a bunch of kits to my local store to lower the price. I’ll ask my local store.
Would Elektron ever make a portability-focused groovebox a la OP-XY? Or would this clash too much with their ideals of build quality and tactility?
I wish mate. I wish
It should probably be an all-digital flatter shaped syntakt if so imo
So the Model:Cycles?
Not quite cus it needs battery, smaller form factor & the samples update and doesn’t need as many knobs
i would like elektron to go old school knob per function starting with a playable mono synth using their dual vco from the rytm - but with a stable/unstable option like it was before they fixed the tuning and after and obvs include the distortion and delay - and make it fucking cheap too, so anyone can buy it
What would be the point of that VS any other mono synth on the market?
In some cases, music was even uploaded to Youtube
I don’t know if you have ever saw a norand mono, it’s kinda what you described minus the effects
i had a norand, regret selling it
