Maybe a place to put some monitors? The spacing isn’t really right though

Is it a part of the Machine or just the logo of el.metal?

I’m not knocking it. It serves its purpose.

It probably is a drum synth yes. The name “Perkons” is pretty close to percussion.
Looking forward to hear what it’s going to sound like and what effect that joystick can have.

This in at Sonic State:

It’s rather sudden– the bolt of lightning strikes quickly, but the roar follows behind, as if giving one time enough to inhale. Finally, it strikes your ears like the skies breaking apart and in all its magnificence it rides the wind. PERKONS – a deity of old known by many names and also by ours on the eastern coast of the Baltic Sea – THUNDER , lord of the skies.

PERKONS HD-01 is a unique live performance and sound design instrument that tears down the borders between drum machine, synthesizer and drone instrument. Time to ride the skies!

Ooh! This one seems aimed at the Pulsar market (and is slightly cheaper). Elektron better make Syntakt pretty damn special to compete :sweat_smile:

Looks beautiful!
Reading the feature list it sounds pretty close to LXR-02. I’ts probably quite a different beast.

If I had that money,
I’d hammer it the morning
I’d hammer it in the evening
All over this land

And space.
I need space.

That is a serious drum machine. Analog delay and compressor, on top of everything else. Tempest/Pulsar/AR territory here.

Fucksake.

Just when I thought I could live without drums in my life…

I really hope it sounds like shit, because I can’t afford it and I’m pretty attached to my kidneys.
