…if ur planning live sets…and u don’t wanna read ur mails on stage, the ot is the only option to get rid of ur computer…
plus, sample manipulation goes deep and otherworldly endless within an ot…plus it can do a pretty slick job for u, if u want a wavetablesynth…
but controlling more than three elektron machines at once in a live situation asks for lot’s of preparation upfront, otherwise u easily get lost…
but since stage is no big issue for u by now, and the studio is all u want to see covered, another synth can’t be a mistake…
but ur really sure, u already took all the advantage of what u got already?
each elektron music machine has it’s own sweetspots, so knowing them inside out, makes a huge difference in unique results…
and i personally, using quite a bunch of these swedish nerdy dream boxes, can definitly say…no…have’nt seen even half of their individual potentials yet…still…and ot, once my first elektron peace of gear is now with me since years, striaght followed up by the a4 back in the days when it was brand new…and also here, still no clue what else it all can do for me, sonicwise, end of the day…
so, it might be not such a bad idea, if u take a little rest, before u spent the next money and have another closer look on what u got there already…
the dark trinity is no option for u anyway anymore…since there’s no grey trinity to collect these days…the mk2’s don’t match up anymore to each other with their different designs now…
and if it comes to fun and really nice and versatile presets ready to use right out of the box, the tone is definitly best choice for now…
but u sound like a collectors item digger big time, so be aware of the fact, that once u own the tone, ur only half a step away from wanting the takt next, also…which would complete ur set up soooo nicely…the two grey mk2’s and the two digi’s…ah, what a charme to look at…
but not knowing them all for sure from the inside insight, would be a big failure…keep that in mind…
the a4 only is already a sonic universe of it’s own and if u don’t dig deeper on each one of them, ur missing out quite a lot potential u even can’t think of by now…
