because its capitalism and they can. Richer people can afford the Rytm so they can afford to spend more on OB for it? But for one price I meant, you pay for Overbridge once, and it works on all of your devices
You could always rock an A4 + a skiff with an Akemieâs Castle in it.
So many showing their fears of change. This forum is turning into an avenue for expressing your lack of understanding what the company is doing. I have no interest in reading all of the complaints on this thread but I do see the few who are trying to open everyoneâs eyes. Iâve been using Elektron products for a few years now and come to elektronauts for what the community offers as we all once strived for the same goals in helping others understand what the machines provides and share ideas on ways to be more creative with their music. Why are so few of us seeing these updates as Elektron actually listening to what their users have been asking for. This is all a way to move forward with our creativity. Itâs better than not making revisions. Someone said on one of the previous posts that Elektron isnât a big company like Roland, Korg, Moog, etc. Maybe thatâs something they would like to achieve, to be known as one of those larger companies. They are already well known for their gear. Why not answer the requests of current users as well as gain a new customer base. They could have made them all florescent colors and everyone would have complained about that. If you know what the MK1 versions offer and what the MK2 versions add to them and are in a position to buy them or just want the updated version there shouldnât be any reason to complain. If not, you donât like them or need them, donât buy them.
Why so negative?
We are supposed to be here to come together, but not like this.
Amen brother!
Threads go on for months if not years speculating and wishing for Elektron to release some new stuff.
Elektron finally answers and deliver some new gear, only to be abused for releasing new gear too quickly
Anyway, Cenk will release some videos soon and all will be forgiven in Elektron land. Its like déjà vu
He must be pretty busy at the moment.
Youâre joking right?
I really think this is somebody trolling.
I started writing a response, but not going to bother. This horse has been beaten to death. Back to positivity.
The mki almost surely can sample - if they enable it. It doesnât look like a hardware issue to me. It has an input, it appears to pass through the cpu. If that is so, it is all possible.
Elektron have given you some options, so donât be pissed.
Time: you have until sep to sell your mk1 for a good price and upgrade to mk2.
pricing: the Ar is 1549us which is a price higher than the mk1.
So you can keep your AR mk1 and get the DT to cover the sampling side of things. The DTs bonus is 8 extra tracks and 8 midi tracks.
Or you could get a used mduw mk1 or OT mk1.
I sold my AR. Iâll think about upgrading when I demo one in sep. Personally I just got another MDUW mk1, cuase I didnt like the DT way of sampling when I demoed it. RAM machines rule!
Discussed from the other (quite large) thread: The MK1 has no AD converters on the external input. The hardware simply isnât there, so no sampling capability can be brought to it.
This dude bought it 3 years ago. I repeat 3 years.
Most marriages donât last that long
If you just bought it last week mate, I MAY entertain your concern.
Jesus Christ, how long would it take before youâre not pissed at Elektron?
10, 15, 25 years?
I can see it now, your 93 and on your death bed tweakin on your mk I, you just hear mk II has been released and thatâs it, itâs lights out. The pain and suffering is too much. Damn you Elektron
how long did Hectors relationship with elektron last?
Hector Mk2 please!!!
Yeah Cenks pretty cool but Mk I Hector was awesome
seems hector is busy in a new series:
Before We Die (2017â )
Kola Krauze âŠ
Suvorov (1 episode, 2017)
Oh no. Hector sold out.
What hope do us mere mortals have
+1
The fairly strong entitlement vibe keeps me pretty disinterested in this forum these daysâŠ
The butt-hurt and sense of entitlement are strong in the forums these daysâŠ
I reckon even if my wife left me in 3 years I wouldnât be pissed
There is obviously AD converter somewhere since the audio coming from external input can be streamed to USB / Overbridge.
