Waiting for our Syntakts to arrive

I am waiting for my Syntakt to arrive as well.

Granted, I haven’t ordered one yet, but I am sure one will show up someday.

Same. Hope it gets shipped on Monday and doesn’t spend most of the week in customs.

Just got my shipping notice (from a music store)! I had zero plans to buy a Syntakt, but was super impressed by the sounds and feature set. My perspective is coming from the MC as my only Elektron box. The MC is a solid instrument, but I was thinking how great it would be to have a more advanced version. Getting a DT or DN seemed like heading in a different direction, but the Syntakt looks perfect. The form factor of the ST/DT/DN is perfect as far as I’m concerned–big enough to play and small enough to fit in any studio.

The digital clap looks ace tbh. I think Andrew Huang’s demo had a short but cool segment for it.

Mine is due the 28th. I’m debating the same for the next day.

My confirmation email came at 0957 ET. No tracking info yet. Any other Americans early order from Elektron and in the dark?

I ordered from Sweetwater, and they told me it was supposed to ship out yesterday or today. But the order page says they’re still waiting to receive them at the warehouse.

Also I’m really excited to be able to make analog and digital drums more cohesively on one machine. I tried having my rytm sequence my LXR-02 but the p-locking of course would throw off any of the cohesion I tried to program into the sound design.

Anyone else notice their direct order ST serials are already registered? That saves some time!

I tried to ask about ordering from Sweetwater the day the teaser demos were released but he still hasn’t gotten back to me, so I ordered from Elektron directly.

I have a tracking number but no status update yet so not sure when it’ll arrive.

I had a bit of a head start! Asked my sales rep about putting me in the queue before the Syntakt was properly announced. Initially I just wanted to find out whether it was a device or what; I planned to cancel if I didn’t find the Syntakt appealing. And now here we are.

When I ordered it from sweetwater my rep called me to let me know they wouldn’t have them “for a few days”

I could have ordered direct from elektron at that point, but I’ve never done that so I wasn’t sure how fast it would ship and such. WIth sweetwater I know that even if they don’t get them until monday/tuesday I’ll still have it by next weekend. Hopefully they actually get them by monday/tuesday!

Damn. Mine was 10am and I don’t have a tracking number. That’s really annoying
