?
It feels like ages, specially if we leave out the Model series which are entry level to compete with the volcas of the world.
I hope we see something Q4 2020
but do we really need one?

I’ve been considering this very thing, now I’ve just finished an album and want a new setup for the next one. I reckon I can ‘get by’ on just one sampler (Rytm or M:S) and Live. So I’m going to try that route for a while.
As for OP’s question, we will see one by 2021 for sure, but when is a matter of how much COVID has screwed things up imo.

I don’t think they’ll update their big boys for a couple more years. And they don’t need updating yet, except for OT, but it’s a whole other story. Right now their product line is kinda perfect. Maybe there will be something new.
All I’m saying is that it’ll be a great gift and a very nice surprise. Because it’s not like they’re not giving us something.

Whenever it happens, I’m certain that Octatrack users will be pleased.

I really think the last years have been pretty slow, other companies have been on a roll.
Moog: grandmother, matriarch, one
DSI: prophet x, sequential pro
Waldorf: quantum, iridium
Black corporation: deckard, xerxes, kijimi
Arturia: micro freak, the new poly
Novation: peak, summit
Behringer: all the clones
Elektron: the model series, feels short from the company that brought us the monomachine, octatrack, a4, digitone
Is not a rant, but I miss that edge that I know Elektron is the only one that can deliver, but it has been too long since I have been excited and miss the feeling

Fresh ideas when they came out

Have you played ANY of the Model series?
They are top notch Elektron boxes at a discount price, built like a tank too.
No one has made a hardware mixer mainly analog that can route channels like Ableton and has a lot of “stereo” sends and returns, with an on board multi track sequencer.
Elektron could take the best of all of thier effects, and make a “Scene Machine”
2 Ins 1 master out.
For gawd sakes would someone please make a hardware version of the Finger
Or a decent vocoder thats affordable

We don’t want Elektron to be like korgs and rolands — constantly trying to deliver new toys to the public. They build instruments, instruments serve you for decades.

All I want is cupholders.
Is it too much to ask for a pair of fucking cupholders?!

I would love to see elektrons take on granular, a big request from people around this forum.
The mixer, the effects box, personally not so interested, but losds of love for that in the forum
Personally I would love to see a synth, 2020 take on digital (2020 monomachine :)), hybrid, something
