What's next for Elektron?

^ Henry Ford edition :wink:

Actually the grey of the MKII looks much better in real life than pictures, still black is pretty too.

Pro 2 with an elektron sequencer would be a dream instrument

…pretty positive about the fact that mk3 ot will be a full on black beauty…
2021 we will know for sure…
it will talk ob finally and will blow our minds with all the nice gimmicks of the last inventions like direct hands on, control all and what not…

not so sure anymore there’s gonna be a model:synt…next year…

but i know, they definitly start thinking about different midi controler only units just hooked up with their sequencer engine to push midi and cc and cv to a next level…no sound, just data and content creating for universal use with whatever u got already…

That black OT looks the business!

count me in. the mentioned 2k€ would be fine for that machine.
Add a LAN-port for midi for another 50€ :star_struck:

I would like a tracker interface built into overbridge, with the ability of loading patterns from multiple machines and have them all in a unified interface, so i can change things on multiple patterns from a unified interface, and then push the changes back to the various machines. It would be super nice to have UI for all those sequencers. And an OT that can be overbridged.

I quoted you in your own post and un-hid it. Easy mistake to make, though. I’d also have thought it off-topic if I hadn’t already seen the video.

Yes, I realise now.

Should have added a little comment to point out the link to the topic. Will be (even) more sensitive next time :wink:

Let’s hope that is not the case!

I would pay a little premium for that black finish! So nice.

Polyphonic granular looper

Something like a mashup of the Tasty Chips GR-1 and the Octatrack that allows for synced and unsynced looping/overdubbing as well as granular polyphonic synthesis. Imagine playing a loop and slowly spreading its grains out so it washes over you in an ambient cloud that can be timestretched, pitchshifted, and played back polyphonically with a keyboard!

OT can do that, with incoming signal. I’m working on it with radio as source.
Less grains of course, but very interesting possibilities. 8 voices polyphony possible with a keyboard and a midi processor.

Like this? I did it a couple of years ago and I improved technics.

More recent, but washing well I think. :smile:

Both these are very cool, and definitely are headed towards the type of sounds I’m think of. Am I right in assuming your using reverb and delay to achieve the layering effects? Have you tried doing polyphonic stuff like you described?

I’m on it! :slightly_smiling_face:

I just realised that I would like to have a polyphonic sampler/wavetable synth from Elektron. A sampler where you could decide to lock start and end point to their distance between eachother and their position with one knob, so you could go from microsampling/wavetable to mangling of bigger samples if you desire.
For the rest of it’s synth features I would be content in the vain of Digitone and A4 where you have 4 tracks, with 1 filter and 2 lfo’s per track. The same fx and so on.
Of course this is just the basic idea. I really want a polyphonic sampler. MPC Live and Deluge I know about. I just Don’t like how they look and the Live’s case and encoders are made of plastic. Feels a bit cheap to me. And If elektron made what I described, then it would most likely be for around the price of a Digitone. Unless they would tage it further into OT teotory, which would also be great.
