    Thomann has Behringer's Edge (i.e. Moog DFAM clone) available, delivery time is 13-17 weeks, but. Gearnews article, here's the Behringer advertisement/quick review.

    Sounds nice enough, price point's not too bad, either (compared to DFAM). Here's Edge vs. DFAM:

     

    This is giving me serious gas. For $200 you could do a lot worse.

  2. Hey guys, its been a while!

    2022 has been a pretty rough year for me. Artistically I've been a pretty big slump for a while.

    I don't know how or why but this song was written pretty quickly this weekend. Cheers!

    I'm also really curious as to how many of these units will be produced on the first run, how big of a market is there for something that's kind of a impractical hyper-practical tool? Otoh I see they also offer a wide range of clear/translucent splashwater proof pouches and bags that seem to me mostly useful to people driving convertibles in gated communities.

    I don't need anything like this but I'll also be curious how well it does.

    I'm going to guess that the real market they were trying to crack was a portable mac audio interface. The defacto goto for years has been the Apollo Twin Duo which is about the same price, much bulkier, and only two channels. I know at least two people who own one. The fact that you can throw the TX-6 thing in your pocket and multi track record 6 channels at once is pretty cool. Synth groovebox features sorta just seem like bonuses to me (oh look we got some extra rom, lets toss a few PO algorithm in there!).

    I really liked Cukoo’s demo of the Syntakt but I feel like he could have made a similar tune with either a Digitakt or a Digitone. What are the specific unique shits that the Syntakt can do?

    A few:

    • The FX router thing is the first I've seen in any Elektron. As expected you can p lock it. I always figured this was going to be standalone box. 
    • Both analog and digital voices in a single box
    • Relatively (12) high voice count with modular selection of machines (Rytm was 8, MD was 16). All can be used as MIDI outs kinda like an OT.
    • Unlike Rytm and MD, a large number of synth engines are dedicated to notes/melody/chords. 
    • 4 trig performance buttons per voice. Although its common for every Elektron to have some kinda performance mode, this one seems unique to the Syntakt.
  5. I realize this adds very little to this thread but I've achieved what I think is non random non linear by simply using multiple sequencers.

    A good example is MI Grids. Its a drum sequencer with 3 outs: Kick, snare, and hat. Its got a bunch of patterns programmed into it that you can sweep between. So take the kick and snare and route them to a kick and snare. But then take your hat and route it to a different sequencer's clock. Now this second sequencer has a non linear non random deterministic clock. Feed that to a bassline or something. As you mutate grids, the patterns for your kicks and snares and bassline will mutate and evolve. 

    Now multiple this concept to even more sequencers and logic modules.
