I think this is my best setup to date. Sold my Rytm and bought an OT mk2 with some eurorack percussion including Plonk and Pamela’s New Workout. Just really digging sampling hits from Plonk straight into OT. Plonk is fat and round in low end. Pam can do Euclidean etc so that sits well with a fat kick sampled from Plonk. I can then use either Pyramid or OT or both for sequencing Virus and OB-6. Loving this setup 
I use DIN sync out from Pyramid to Pamela’s New Workout.

I see you have Pams. Just got mine, very cool, thinking of getting Grids too
Yep, I clock everything with it, including the Digitakt and the TB-03. The expander is really good too, rock solid midi/din clock and it frees the main module for more exotic modulations/clocks. I sometimes wish it were more immediate to create good rhythmic gates to trigger enveloppes so I very recently got the Numeric Repetitor by Noise Engineering and it’s really really good. Hands on and instant techno ! It’s similar to Grids, you might check it out too so you can compare. They also have the Zularic Repetitor which is based on African percussion rhythms.

Did you ever receive the kordbot?
No, I ended up cancelling my order. I’ve been using a Reface DX as a midi keyboard, and I like it a lot.

I sold my AR/OT in preparation for getting some Mk IIs of some sort, so no Elektron visible here for now, but finally got my acoustic treatment all set…

Whoa! The fabled and much sought-after two room overflow setup! I like. Damn nice gear too.

Dat Mogue looking so sexy
curious, how much did you spend on treatment?
What’s that mixer you’ve got there?
I’m almost embarrassed to say. I actually hired someone to do a thorough analysis report of the room and recommend treatment. It’s Realacoustix stuff, so pretty high end, kind of like RPG. He does audiophile listening rooms and home theater stuff generally.
There’s 4 of the 47" x 20" x 10" BassBox (corner bass traps), 2 of the 24" by 24" x 4" FAST diffuser/absorber. 2 of the 24" x 48" x 4" FAST diffuser/absorber panels, and 4 of the RealAB 24" x 48" x 4" absorber panels. They’re custom fabriced/colored as well. You can’t see the 24" x 24" ones in that pic, they’re on the ceiling - or the 2 big ones on the back wall. All that was $4800 including shipping and tax.
There’s actually more in the design I didn’t do yet, 8 more ceiling bass traps and a 2nd subwoofer (yes, a 10’ by 10’ room is a huge pain for bass management of the nodes!), but I only wanted to spend this much so far.
I’m sure you can get good results with a cheaper Auralex foam solution.

The mixer is a zoom livetrak L12. It’s ideal for small setups. You can stream 12+2 channels directly to sd-card, but it can also be used as a 14/4 audio interface. The effects are quite good and the mixer is compact to fit on a 19’’ rack - like the JV-1080 in the picture.
My new working process is controlling all the external gear from the MK3 sequencer and recording all channels separately to the livetrak sd-card. All tracks can be later on reworked on a daw if applicable.

@basehead617: Nothing embarrassing about spending money wisely like that, what is embarrassing is spending thousands on gear and nothing on acoustics 
To my defense I have no space for it atm but I get by thanks to Sonarworks Reference.
You’d not be unwise to look at that for taking care of the rest of your’e acoustic problems.
And no to Auralex foam that shit only works for high frequencies and is a huge waste of money imo.
sort of torn apart atm, some stuff not represented
