Standard Tuesday night at home mate.
I have a sneaking suspicion this is suppose to compete with the polyend tracker
Station has 7 letters and starts with S.
Syntakt has 7 letters and starts with S.
SID Station 2.0 confirmed.
I got quoted by SynthAnatomy.
Is that a good thing or a bad thing ?
If youâre reading SynthAnatomy â i like most of your articles, but this one is definitely substandard.
Your famous
Something to add to my credentials, quoted in trade mags.
Looks evil, I like it a lot
Iâm calling dibs on creating the âSynTakt Sound Qualityâ thread
Heck Gino, you can create that thread right now, and most everyone posting here can start posting about the sound of the Syntakt too.
It sounds totally awesome, and crunchy !
Def hope they go the OT box format for this rather than Digi, and see what a 2021 Elektron does in that size of machine
Aside from some live tricks and a song mode, the digitakt can do basically everything the tracker can. Not arguing one is better than the other, but they are extremely similar.
Yeah, digitakt is missing performance mode and a slice option though.
Iâm reading, Iâm the Big Brother of the synth news
What makes it sub-standard?
According to the Swedish Trademark Register, Elektron is working on a new synth product called SynTakt
Thereâs no evidence that Elektron is working on a new synth product; they have merely registered a trademark.
Many new products will be presented at Superbooth 21 next week. Whether on-site or online via stream, everything is welcome these days. Interesting: Elektron is not going to have a booth at SB 21 this year, but that doesnât mean anything.
The above is hardly a newsworthy statement.
Besides the online option, the Swedish company also has a showroom (Elektron Studios), where they regularly organize events (before the pandemic). Here, for example, they presented the Digitone Keys for the first time.
I donât know if the showroom is still there
Badly-informed comment. Elektron no longer has a showroom in Berlin.
The name reveals two key points: SYN and TAKT (beats, rhythmic) so itâs probably a Synthesizer in the Digitakt format.
âProbablyâ based on what?
Or Iâm completely wrong and it will be something completely different.
So your speculation is useless.
one thing is sure: Elektron is working on something new.
See above. Hardly a telling observation.
Iâd say that the Digitakt is A Lot better at sample mangling since itâs non destructive⌠itâs a PITA to alter samples on the tracker any significant way⌠but the performance mode is freaking dope on Tracker
Itâs under their leaks and rumors section. Their speculation is the same as this thread, baseless but still fun.
Edit, well maybe not baseless but still we still are stretching it with our imaginations.
Heheh well they did look to hire people for the specific purpose of working on something new, so i guess the one thing is certain remark isnât entirely baseless xD
Is there an announcement/event date coming up where syntakt might be unveiled?
My mind says itâs a digital drum synth but my heart wants it to be a new flagship product combining different products with premium features (e.g. Groovebox combining Digitakt plus FM/Wavetable/VA-synth).
Also, I still think that a complete portfolio should include single entry-level boxes (e.g. Model-line), middle-line single but feature-complete boxes (e.g. Digi-line) and flagship big-boxes combining multiple boxes (e.g. FM/VA/Wavetable synth with more voice or Grooveboxes combining poly/mono/drum synths).
We donât know. We donât even know if this Syntakt will be developed into a product. Other trademarks have happened and not turned up as a product. Weâre just speculating based on a trademark application.
