I'm currently considering Digitakt vs Syntakt. What would you suggest for my fist hardware and do you think that if I purchase Syntakt the Digitakt would be redundant?
@@andrzejkucharzyk9970 If you have to choose between the 2 i would definetly go for a digitakt. it is cheaper and you get the world of sampling as an extra.i have the digitakt and ordered the syntakt because i hoped for a monomachine XXL. but the syntakt does not inspire me like my other elektrons. the syntakt has to leave my studio, i would even consider buying a second digitakt than buying a syntakt in the future, except elektron brings a firmwareupdate for the syntakt to sample and with more synthengines. at the moment at least for me it should not have synt in the name. as always everyone has its own opinion, so the developers saw something different than me, maybe they know more about future options ;-)
@@lab-by-the-sea Hey DJRex, thanks for the reply. Its kind of too late cause ive already bought Syntakt and im immensely inspired by this thing :). Bear in mind that is my first Elektron box. I think that Syntakt naming is quite intuitive cause it supposed to be mainly drumbox (hence the "takt" part) and since its not sample based but rather synthesis based there is "Synt" part. I think there will be time in the future when i will purchase Digitakt too :)
been working way too hard on this vid… I totally missed the Machines typo. Yes. It should be Machines and not Maschines. I blame my Native Instruments Maschine for this! 😆☕️
I think Elektron has a real winner here. Unfortunately between the 8 other of their machines I own (ridiculous I know) it doesn't really bring anything new to my studio. But there is a lot to like here.
I know technically the Syntakt is nothing new, but none of the other Elektron machines have captured my attention quite like this one. I think it hits a really good niche in the market for people who feel the AR is too expensive, and aren't so interested in the Digitakt's sampling or Digitone's tonal stuff. The lack of Overbridge support on the Model:Cycles kind of stopped me from buying that as well, so it's good to see that the Syntakt supports it. Great video as always Bo!
@@Judasz696 exactly that. You can multitrack all the individual tracks from Syntakt, Digitakt etc. into your DAW. It also gives you access to software plugin-style control over the features of the hardware, which is cool.
@@servantsounds The lack of overbridge support for the model:cycles is a dick move, especially if in their ad campaign for the models:cycles they explicitly state that they are known in the music world for that exact software...without disclosing that it doesnt support that product...
It's probably better suited for me than the digitakt as I'm a little bit lazy when it comes to loading samples or sample from audio input. It's a great synth and it's difficult to resist to its call :)
There is no one better to give the world a first glimpse of a new Elektron product. Excellent video with some very ear pleasing examples along the way. Well done.
It's easy to overlook another benefit of sound-locking that I didn't realize until I watched and listened to you demonstrate it. It's not just that you can have a different sound on each beat of your track (and therefore more sounds in your composition); it's that each sound on a single track can have its own level and effects. But then you can still apply track-level effects like overdrive which strikes me as being like having a "bus" in a DAW. Very cool. Anyway, nice demo, Bo!
this speaks loudly to me. love my digitakt, but prefer synthesizing drums. love the digitatk/tone square format, much preferred over AR/OT. i think there are some people watching who may not understand the difference between digitakt digital sample sequencing [capable of some degree of granular synthesis] and digital synthesiszed drum engines in general, then to further confuse; all that in combination with analogue engines. big fan of the mixer and external processing and digital/analogue effects implementation. even without having played one, i can safely say this would make an incredible first piece of gear. what lucky bastards the younger generation, being born into a world where this exists. can see this one being the brain of many setups. such a fantastic sound sculpter and composition tool. think i'll be on the market. thank you for the insightful vid bo!
I have the Digitakt, Digitone and the A4, out of the three boxes, I prefer the drums on the A4 MK1, personal opinion syntakt will be a good drum machine for a first time Elektron buyer, you get a taste of most of their devices in one box
Looks like a greatest hits from Elektron with bits of the Heat, Digitone, and Rytm plus new stuff. Maybe even some ideas from the Octatrack in terms of performance mixing. Whilst it doesn’t replace those if you have them it seems like the one to go for if you’re on the fence about any of the others. With functionality beyond a groove box it’s a thumbs up from me. There’s always something magic about a BoBeats Elektron review too …
Being a frequent user of both Sonicware 8bit warps, and XFM, this is an interesting development for Elektron. These devices do many of the things the Syntakt does.
@@roryjineffect Indeed! Interesting development, for sure. I love being a Sonicware guy. The Doc, and team, are doing amazing stuff! I'm really looking forward to Smpl Trek. I don't have the Bass n Beats yet, or an ELZ-1. I can say without question however, the 8bw, and XFM, are amazing simple, yet incredibly powerful.
I'm excited about this groovebox but I can't believe they didn't make it usb-c and battery powered in 2022. Such a missed opportunity to make this the ULTIMATE groovebox.
If these are the only 2 points you find wrong with it... Well why isnt it the ultimate grovebox? Because the USB-Port is the wrong kind and it has no battery? ..... well everybody to its own, I guess
@@ickebins6948 It's the main thing, a groovebox is supposed to be something you can take with you anywhere and jam on the couch, in bed, or outside. Like picking up a guitar. It's not just a minor omission, it's a critical one. Don't get me wrong, I kind of get why. These boxes are made for live and studio performances, not as something that could wipe the floor of proper grooveboxes like the MC-101. But to me, this is a missed opportunity nonetheless. Elektron boxes are very power efficient and could last a really long time with rechargeable 4xAA, easily 6-8 hours. And with a powerbank, you could go on forever. The latter is technically possible with a cord that can convert up to 12V, but it's a hassle and they could have done that inside the box instead.
@@sinewaymusic I agree completely. It's great to have a dedicated workstation, but if I could just take it with me it would be a completely different experience. Making music in the studio is fun, at the beach though.... more fun
Yea this might be insane, but if I didn't know the pricetags, I might take the Circuit Tracks over this for the battery and sampling functionality. It's a shame Novation didn't update (or add to) the synth engine on there.
I've been a loyal Elektron User since 2013 and felt that Samplers & Drum Machines was what they're really good at...but was never a fan of their "Synthesizer" products (Analog 4 & Keys), always reserved that for Nord & Korg. But when the Digitakt was released in 2017, I felt that was a culmination of everything great about Elektron in a compact (and affordable) product. As for the Syntakt, I'm still not impressed about their "Synthesizer" department.
A combination of the digitakt and octatrack with 16 tracks... a REAL sampler with all the pros of both machines... plus a bigger screen, pads with velocity sensitvity, multiple outs etc. Can't be that hard, but I guess this is not possible, because the octa and digitakt would be worthless if they would release a machine like this 😥
The performance controls are cool hopefully the Takt and Tone get the updated firmware too. Was expecting a bit more though tbh its a bit of a mish-mash of their machines rather than a new concept. Feel like this a groove box that will attract a lot of new comers and will sell well but perhaps not appeal to those that have been producing for quite sometime. Maybe i just need to have a play around on it.
Think it has a lot to offer me after 30 odd years producing. I have all the synths I’d ever need, but this can be a more-than-adequate foundation to build around. This will be my only Elektron box in my studio and will likely push my Nord Drum 2 out. Modern features and Overbridge make this a dead set winner for me. I’m not a big ‘samples’ guy, and this looks like a ripper drum synth-sequencer thing to me. I got one on the way.
Well done on the video, great content explained pretty darn deep enough for those interested in it. The velocity modifier keys reminds me of the 1986 Yamaha RX5 drum machine where the pads were not velocity sensitive but there was a 'job' when you could assign a drum to the top row of 12 pads and edit each pad for volume, pitch etc then play those into a pattern for a more human feel.
i was waiting for this for so long ! this is probably the only elektron box i need for now..i would like to hear the fm engine more and also some metallic stuff like in the machinedrum..thanks!
I would have liked a model groove box style digital synth with 4 voices. This thing is great but not something I need in my setup. This and the new SP 404 would make a fantastic combination.
For some reason this device reminds me of my first bit of gear, the Korg Electribe EM-1, but of course this has way more features. Your single track demos were awesome Bo, thanks for the review. I think I'm sold :)
Great review and thank you for sharing - have recently purchased a Syntakt and this really helps - currently in the phase of getting to know the ST. It is way cool and immediate (much more so than my Digital or Digitone). I really dig the Digitone because the FM sound is so much fun to play with - hours of tweaking. Also tried an Analog Rytm MK2 today - that is a beast the analog sounds on the ARM2 are really cool, so warm and fat ... performance knobs and all are great. BUT expensive, the large pads don't feel great, might be just me. I know the performance macros are more powerful that the ST and it's an all in one machine. Was considering a swop ST for ARM2 but after the ARM2 test run I think I'll stick with the Synakt - it has a certain sweat spot (dollars/performance/form factor/immediacy)... dont need it but add an Heat + FX to the ST and man that is a very small footprint beast.
I'm into the vibe of this, especially with analog drums on board. But it doesn't seem as versatile as the digitakt, which I already find a bit expensive compared to the MPC One. I'd be tempted if they came in at 600, but I don't think I could pay 800+. The synth sounds are not completely blowing me away either. As groovebox, it's got so much competition at many price ranges, including from Elektron.
Agreed… MC-707 has pattern chaining that can be saved.. Hence SONG MODE.. This thing can’t compete at this price range… $500us is a more accurate price point..
@@mikenagol69 I never messed with Roland's grooveboxes, but the 707 certainly seems like a nice middle ground between MPC's daw-in-a-box vs Elektron's intelligent drum machine design. You're giving up analog sound generation, but imo Roland's digital synths still sound good.
So....it's a Model Cycles on moderate steroids and with a few analog voices bolted on. Not sure how they're justifying the thousand bucks pricetag for that. For that price, I can get all the Sonicware Liven grooveboxes and still have enough left over to get a Circuit Tracks. For a thousand bucks, I can get nearly five Model Cycles.
The Cycles is lots of fun and I can see how this has made it a Pro version but I would rather those analog voices be a sampler and then this machine would really have been a great one stop shop.
@Digital Leprosy They had to get more money out of R&D spent on Cycles, which wasn't a smash hit like the Digitakt. It's the logical thing for them to do... just not the coolest or most interesting to Cycles or Rytm owners.
I'm a bit confused about the polyphony bit. So it has a chord mode but can't be played polyphonicaly outside of that mode? Not even with a keyboard? Aside from that bit it's a must have. Cancelled my digitone order and going to get this now.
Correct: 12 voices All are monophonic The chord mode is not true polyphonic, its just a couple of oscillators tuned to different notes 4 note poly for midi tracks
This seems like a decent upgrade for the Digitakt or Model:Cycles or Model:Samples. It seems like it would somewhat ease the process of setting up tracks while starting a new song, since it's more about dialing in the desired sound instead of trying to find the right sample. The performance modifiers and CC routings are a nice touch too. Personally though, the reason I haven't used my Digitakt lately is because of the workflow, which is still almost identical on the new Syntakt. I find it frustrating and demotivating trying to build songs from 64-step patterns with p-locks. Elektron's sound engines are fantastic, but I hope someday they might consider packaging those with a different workflow.
@@Lurkartiist Yeah, for sample-heavy styles, it wouldn't replace the Digitakt. Like sampling drum loops and using trigs to change the start point to get a chop-like effect. Ivar Tryti has made a bunch of fantastic songs that way, and the Syntakt can't do it. TBH though, the Digitakt isn't particularly good at that sort of thing. At least, not compared to other gear in its class, like MPC. It has some other pretty big downsides too... like, I was never able to get files to/from my Digitakt because it uses a proprietary protocol. Mono samples only. Very limited effects. Not very good at chopping, especially when using just one track for chops. It also has a pretty low limit on sample memory, which makes a lot of sample-based styles totally impossible. Like, the last song I finished used 3X as much sample space as what the Digitakt allows, and it wasn't even a very complex song. So I pretty much just used the Digitakt's built-in samples, tweaked to fit different songs. It did drums and midi sequencing. But it wasn't even great at drums. It took a while to set up each drum kit, and then it didn't even let me save the kit for reuse in other songs. And if I wanted to change the kit during the later stages of a song, like adjusting levels and timbres for a better mix after I had a few dozen patterns written, it required repeating the same edits on every single pattern individually. The Syntakt doesn't fix all of these things, but I think it'll work better as a drum machine. It seems quite a bit better for the kit-building part of the process, which happens right at the beginning of a song and was a major source of friction on Digitakt. It also has some extra performance features to create fills and variations on the fly, which reduces the need for extra patterns and reduces the downsides of having a bunch of patterns. Extra tracks too, so less need for p-locking different instruments in a single track to fit more tones in. And synth engines, so it has less need for external gear, or libraries of single-cycle waveforms, or samples in general. But I don't plan to get one. Instead, I got a brand new Akai Force a few months ago for $100 less than the Syntakt, and have been much, much happier with it. It's basically Ableton in a box, with a bunch of useful plugins included, and the best parts of MPC, and it's even mod-friendly thanks to running Linux. It changed the core question of my musical process from "what *can* I do, within the limitations of my gear?" to "what do I *want* to do?"
I keep reading these negative comments but then I hear a perfect sound coming off the video, like, I don't buy any gear in this price range but I really like how this sounds.
It sounds like it sounds in the video. Go check my 16 minute music demo. Its all 100% Syntakt. No post processing. I don't ever post process demo/review sounds. Trust your ears. If you like it you like it, if you don't you don't. Sound is subjective.
thanks. i ended up getting a digitakt because i wanted to continue and expand some things I've been doing with a secondhand ES-1. it is the only ”expensive” gear i own, but it seems like a classic and I got to try out the elektron workflow so why not? it is useful to have a box that can sound good and record it directly. having onboard eq, filters, compression with good sounding reverb and delays... makes that happen. I think the syntakt goes a step further because it has the analogue insert effects. a nice thing about having a digitakt is that watching a video about the syntakt can still teach you things since some tricks are in both. that's why i am back watching this.
Concerning the modifiers: indeed, it would be very useful that the buttons don't trigger the sounds, to add punctually more reverb to a sequenced hit. It would even be more awesome if for the same modifier, one could control several parameters. For example: first two buttons (out of the 4 modifier buttons) control reverb, last two control delay. That would allow to make something similar to "dub remix" (without having to switch from M3 to M4 for accessing different FX), would love that !!
Wow this looks awesome but being a newbie I'd probably get lost with all the options so I'll keep looking for something simpler and keep this one in the back of my head for future. Great showcase too :)
I think it would be the perfect box for my taste, weren’t it for the only two boxes I own are the Machinedrum and Analog Keys. I kinda feel the Syntakt is a mix between these two devices in a smaller and more portable form factor, but less deep in synthesis capsbilities. So can’t wait for the secondhand prices for digitone’s and OT’s to go down when this becomes readily availabe!!
Exactly! Also owner of the MD, AR and AK, I was really hoping for a 2022 revampled Machinedrum, and the Syntakt could have been that if it had 16 tracks, multiple outputs and uses the larger box format (much more better for livesets, in my opinion). But let's have a try and see what the Syntakt can do and how it compares to the AR mkII.
Hi Bo! I think the solution to the performance controls at min 24:10 is to just turn TRIG off ( in the setup menu to the very left, which you see here at min 23:33) So you can choose if you want it to trigger or not! In that case your wish might have come true :)
It's weird that on paper it seems to be ticking most of the boxes yet based on what I've seen so far, I'd take an AR or a Machinedrum any day over this one.
This is the shiny new box on the block that's got everyone gassing. But if you check out the used market for Analog Rytm/Four MKIs, the pair can be had for around the new price of a Syntakt. If you can stand the crappy screens, that's a powerful one-two punch. You lose a few cool new features and the sleek compactness but gain a bunch of stuff that got left off without growing your footprint terribly.
Hi Bo, good review as always! My curiosity, how much time do you have available from the Company to learn and prepare a review for new products? Regards✌🏻
The video I've been waiting for! I've noticed that there is a dearth of info on how to chain patterns, is it the same as the Digitakt? Does it have a song mode?
Finally did a impromptu set at a Bar and heard the Syntakt on PA. OMG! I really have No Clue what I'm doing. I brought it cus I had Gas and wanted sumthin different. (But mainly for the Chords) But , WOW! I'm excited about WHAT I can build with it NOW that I heard it's potential.
Neat! My favorite Elektron unit is the Analog Heat (MKii), I hope they make something like that again! Like a sister unit to it or somethin, I really don't even know what it would be since the AH is so deep and unique but I'd love to see Elektron announce it haha
After playing about with the chord machine for a few weeks I've become a little more familiar with it. On the whole, I still think it stinks, *BUT* I've managed to wring some nice drones and pads out of the unison modes, using the LFO to control a tiny bit of detune. Give it a go maybe.
After the last disappointing products, glad to see that Elektron is back! Just a question about Polyphony: On A4 and Monomachine it was possible to set some of the tract as 'poly' and use them like this. Is this possible with Syntakt too?
Jordan from simply synthesizer group here. Any chance we could get a tutorial on how to make ACID BASS? I have been trying but I'm not getting that sound. 😕
mm...if you have no EleK machines this is a good option , not tempting me from the digitakt at the moment . I would love a 8 output option analogue for the digitakt .
Very interesting device. I didn't tried any electron device for any long time (only 2-3 hours just for try in some studios or stores) - but I'm ordered the Syntakt and waiting it in a 3 weeks.... I think it'll be interesting :)
nice vid Bo, as always. I am looking for a groovebox where I can program melodies (lead/bass) controlling the size of the notes (wholes,1/2 1/4 etc), and visulaize it as a kind of piano roll or some sort of it, I have in my short list the deluge and the polyend tracker. Is there any other option that is not just a sequencer?, maybe the maschine +, but the size look biger than dely and polyend tracker
Bo, grym demo som alltid, lätt att använda för en amatör som inte kan spela ett enda ackord? Grym kombo med din andra favorit, Maschine? Elektron har ju de ljud jag gillar.
Hi. Great channel, lots of useful info. Question. I was looking at buying myself a digitakt and digitone, however with the syntakt now available, what is the better option, could you help please
Digitone will give you the ability to play melodies and chords polyphonically. Its the better synth for making lead/pad/bass Digitakt is sample based and works best for making drum beats but you can also load bass, lead and pad samples. Syntakt is a bit like you took Digitakt but turned it into a drum synth + bass & lead synth. Its not great for pads tho. Digitone + Digitakt is an amazing combo. Syntakt + Digitone also works very well Wouldnt get Syntakt + Digitakt combo
This and a 404 would really be all I need. I have a digitakt and digitone and I’ve sold my OT and A4 because they’re great but I really only ever used like 30% of what they do. This is really close to exactly what I’d ask for except maybe a second page with more parameters for the analog synth oscillators with wave morphing rather than wave select.
But that's like $1300+ of gear. You could get the Live2 along with a battery and speakers and a lot more daw features. I do love Elektron's step sequencer, but even an MPC One + beatstep pro would be a cheaper combo and imo get you a lot more creative potential.
@@sugarhigh4242 I have an MPC one and tbh I despise the MPC workflow. It’s a necessary piece for one of my projects but that’s really it. As far as DAWs and plugins go, I’m a hardware person. I don’t like using a computer to make my music, it feels like I’m still at work.
Not at all. As of recent I have reviewed: Korg Volca Fm 2 = it sounds good but it also has some annoying things Malevolent = had some issues Nanobox = one of them was pretty cool, the other one not so much NiftyKEYZ = really good Cobalt 5S = sounds good, but isnt super exciting So no. Everything isnt the greatest ever. But I do try and avoid spending a week or more on things I can’t see value in
Sounds great mate. I'd be super interested in a way to plug this into a mixing desk like a breakout adapter. The sound engines and controls look much more useable.
Would love to see some jams with it paired with the digitone. And a sampler -digitakt,MPC, maschine etc. Very excited for this machine. Already on order!
What DAW-less hardware device are you recommending as a main MIDI/USB controller (for complete song-creating) for Digitakt and Digitone? Is Machine+ or MPC Live 2 something you recommend or is there other "better" choice especially for Elektron gears?
I heard this device had 12 voices, and it was a groovebox with analog, digital and effects and I thought it would be something that would give Roland MC707 a good run for their money. Sadly it is nowhere near. The "synth engines" are pretty lackluster. I mean, they sound exactly like you would expect from a Digitone or other Electron devices, so it is not necessarily a bad thing, if this is the sound you like. I was thinking that this was the endgame in terms of having a device with a great sequencer (Electron made the best sequencer workflow I think), coupled with good engines to express different types of sounds. But sadly this box is lightyears behind any synth; except maybe the opsix. Again, great if this is the sound you like but if you already have few digital and analog synths, and were thinking to put those away and use the Syntakt... Ain't gonna happen. I would totally buy this if I had no other gear or just one single synth; but as I already own plenty of analog and digital synths; this would be just another box getting dust in my collection. Thanks for your review; it really saved me a bunch of money!
I feel like Elektron makes the same machine again and again, just some feature lacking here and there. Isn't all the product line a succesion of drum making things? The A4 and Digitone are the only real melodic synths the offer.
Even though I feel this one is pretty cool, but it does look like reinventing a bike - this one is not original - just a mix of model:cycles, a4 and analog rytm all in one. I think they have great great stuff, but something fresh would have been nice, I really wanted to see their interpretation of granular synthesis...

Totally agree! The difference between Digitakt and Syntakt is huge!
I have the Digitakt, Digitone and the A4, out of the three boxes, I prefer the drums on the A4 MK1, personal opinion syntakt will be a good drum machine for a first time Elektron buyer, you get a taste of most of their devices in one box
Looks like a greatest hits from Elektron with bits of the Heat, Digitone, and Rytm plus new stuff. Maybe even some ideas from the Octatrack in terms of performance mixing. Whilst it doesn’t replace those if you have them it seems like the one to go for if you’re on the fence about any of the others. With functionality beyond a groove box it’s a thumbs up from me.
There’s always something magic about a BoBeats Elektron review too …
back to the roots :)
Being a frequent user of both Sonicware 8bit warps, and XFM, this is an interesting development for Elektron. These devices do many of the things the Syntakt does.
For less than half price of this box. For both combined.
@@roryjineffect Indeed! Interesting development, for sure. I love being a Sonicware guy. The Doc, and team, are doing amazing stuff! I'm really looking forward to Smpl Trek. I don't have the Bass n Beats yet, or an ELZ-1. I can say without question however, the 8bw, and XFM, are amazing simple, yet incredibly powerful.
@@DetroitMicroSound What’s the timbrality of those units referenced?
Thanks Bo! Can't wait to get mine this week!!
how did you manage to get it so fast
@@tendingtropic7778 😁 magic. ;)
I'm excited about this groovebox but I can't believe they didn't make it usb-c and battery powered in 2022. Such a missed opportunity to make this the ULTIMATE groovebox.
I wish it could fly. What a missed opportunity otherwise it would’ve been the ultimate ultimate groovebox
If these are the only 2 points you find wrong with it...
Well why isnt it the ultimate grovebox? Because the USB-Port is the wrong kind and it has no battery?
..... well everybody to its own, I guess
@@ickebins6948 It's the main thing, a groovebox is supposed to be something you can take with you anywhere and jam on the couch, in bed, or outside. Like picking up a guitar. It's not just a minor omission, it's a critical one. Don't get me wrong, I kind of get why. These boxes are made for live and studio performances, not as something that could wipe the floor of proper grooveboxes like the MC-101. But to me, this is a missed opportunity nonetheless. Elektron boxes are very power efficient and could last a really long time with rechargeable 4xAA, easily 6-8 hours. And with a powerbank, you could go on forever. The latter is technically possible with a cord that can convert up to 12V, but it's a hassle and they could have done that inside the box instead.
@@sinewaymusic I agree completely. It's great to have a dedicated workstation, but if I could just take it with me it would be a completely different experience. Making music in the studio is fun, at the beach though.... more fun
Yea this might be insane, but if I didn't know the pricetags, I might take the Circuit Tracks over this for the battery and sampling functionality. It's a shame Novation didn't update (or add to) the synth engine on there.
This is clearly a beast of a machinery
I've been a loyal Elektron User since 2013 and felt that Samplers & Drum Machines was what they're really good at...but was never a fan of their "Synthesizer" products (Analog 4 & Keys), always reserved that for Nord & Korg. But when the Digitakt was released in 2017, I felt that was a culmination of everything great about Elektron in a compact (and affordable) product. As for the Syntakt, I'm still not impressed about their "Synthesizer" department.
Super special thanx for your great tutorial…learning so much with your video without to read the manual! Greetings 🖖☺️
Oh look, another little box of fun!
Interesting sounds but I really want a 16 track digitakt. One can only dream.
Join the club!
Couldn’t you just… get 2nd digitakt?
@@LoLaKoala true LoL
A combination of the digitakt and octatrack with 16 tracks... a REAL sampler with all the pros of both machines... plus a bigger screen, pads with velocity sensitvity, multiple outs etc. Can't be that hard, but I guess this is not possible, because the octa and digitakt would be worthless if they would release a machine like this 😥
Digitakt + Synthtakt = 20 Track drum powerhouse
The performance controls are cool hopefully the Takt and Tone get the updated firmware too. Was expecting a bit more though tbh its a bit of a mish-mash of their machines rather than a new concept. Feel like this a groove box that will attract a lot of new comers and will sell well but perhaps not appeal to those that have been producing for quite sometime. Maybe i just need to have a play around on it.
Think it has a lot to offer me after 30 odd years producing. I have all the synths I’d ever need, but this can be a more-than-adequate foundation to build around. This will be my only Elektron box in my studio and will likely push my Nord Drum 2 out. Modern features and Overbridge make this a dead set winner for me. I’m not a big ‘samples’ guy, and this looks like a ripper drum synth-sequencer thing to me. I got one on the way.
Well done on the video, great content explained pretty darn deep enough for those interested in it.
The velocity modifier keys reminds me of the 1986 Yamaha RX5 drum machine where the pads were not velocity sensitive but there was a 'job'
when you could assign a drum to the top row of 12 pads and edit each pad for volume, pitch etc then play those into a pattern for a more human feel.
i was waiting for this for so long ! this is probably the only elektron box i need for now..i would like to hear the fm engine more and also some metallic stuff like in the machinedrum..thanks!
This looks like a slightly more suited to me version of the Digitakt. Very interesting.
100%
I would have liked a model groove box style digital synth with 4 voices. This thing is great but not something I need in my setup. This and the new SP 404 would make a fantastic combination.
Indeed would be cool - Model groove with just the very essentials..
yes..... yes!
Syntakt is one of our central pieces at the moment. My favourite groovebox of all time. - Fletch
love the video as always! what do you think about a comparison video for rytm vs. syntakt? pretty please :)
Another great, timely review. Thank you! 👏🏻
I really liked the Digitone, and this looks (and sounds) even better. Hmmmm... :-)
Great video once again, I like the chapter display, really helpful.
Great review, very clear and musical . Thanks a lot
For some reason this device reminds me of my first bit of gear, the Korg Electribe EM-1, but of course this has way more features. Your single track demos were awesome Bo, thanks for the review. I think I'm sold :)
Glad you checked it out!
Oh snap - this thing looks amazing! Great video as always Bo!
Really nice demo as always from Bo. Sounds a lot like model:cycles anyway so I’ll stick with my second hand M:C by now
thanks for your video. You have some very good sounds going on. Wich finally made me decided to order a Syntakt.
Damn. I just got news of this thing yesterday and now here it is. Great video, as usual. Thanks
Great review and thank you for sharing - have recently purchased a Syntakt and this really helps - currently in the phase of getting to know the ST. It is way cool and immediate (much more so than my Digital or Digitone). I really dig the Digitone because the FM sound is so much fun to play with - hours of tweaking. Also tried an Analog Rytm MK2 today - that is a beast the analog sounds on the ARM2 are really cool, so warm and fat ... performance knobs and all are great. BUT expensive, the large pads don't feel great, might be just me. I know the performance macros are more powerful that the ST and it's an all in one machine. Was considering a swop ST for ARM2 but after the ARM2 test run I think I'll stick with the Synakt - it has a certain sweat spot (dollars/performance/form factor/immediacy)... dont need it but add an Heat + FX to the ST and man that is a very small footprint beast.
I'm into the vibe of this, especially with analog drums on board. But it doesn't seem as versatile as the digitakt, which I already find a bit expensive compared to the MPC One. I'd be tempted if they came in at 600, but I don't think I could pay 800+. The synth sounds are not completely blowing me away either. As groovebox, it's got so much competition at many price ranges, including from Elektron.
Agreed… MC-707 has pattern chaining that can be saved.. Hence SONG MODE.. This thing can’t compete at this price range… $500us is a more accurate price point..
@@mikenagol69 I never messed with Roland's grooveboxes, but the 707 certainly seems like a nice middle ground between MPC's daw-in-a-box vs Elektron's intelligent drum machine design. You're giving up analog sound generation, but imo Roland's digital synths still sound good.
Time for coffee. Been waiting for the last hour for Bo to Show! Love that chord Maschine
So....it's a Model Cycles on moderate steroids and with a few analog voices bolted on. Not sure how they're justifying the thousand bucks pricetag for that. For that price, I can get all the Sonicware Liven grooveboxes and still have enough left over to get a Circuit Tracks. For a thousand bucks, I can get nearly five Model Cycles.
😂
Very true. If they hit $600 used, then I would look at this. Once I have fully milked my XFM & M:C In a few years.
The Cycles is lots of fun and I can see how this has made it a Pro version but I would rather those analog voices be a sampler and then this machine would really have been a great one stop shop.
@Digital Leprosy They had to get more money out of R&D spent on Cycles, which wasn't a smash hit like the Digitakt. It's the logical thing for them to do... just not the coolest or most interesting to Cycles or Rytm owners.
Since I got the Digitakt ONLY as an 8 track midi sequencer this would give me 12!
I’m still trying to learn the analog 4. This looks like one for experienced Elektron heads.
Analog 4 is deeper
I'm a bit confused about the polyphony bit. So it has a chord mode but can't be played polyphonicaly outside of that mode? Not even with a keyboard?
Aside from that bit it's a must have. Cancelled my digitone order and going to get this now.
Correct:
12 voices
All are monophonic
The chord mode is not true polyphonic, its just a couple of oscillators tuned to different notes
4 note poly for midi tracks
This seems like a decent upgrade for the Digitakt or Model:Cycles or Model:Samples. It seems like it would somewhat ease the process of setting up tracks while starting a new song, since it's more about dialing in the desired sound instead of trying to find the right sample. The performance modifiers and CC routings are a nice touch too. Personally though, the reason I haven't used my Digitakt lately is because of the workflow, which is still almost identical on the new Syntakt. I find it frustrating and demotivating trying to build songs from 64-step patterns with p-locks. Elektron's sound engines are fantastic, but I hope someday they might consider packaging those with a different workflow.
you can't sample so how can it replace the digitakt ??? probably a good companion to the digitakt, that's how I'll use it
@@Lurkartiist Yeah, for sample-heavy styles, it wouldn't replace the Digitakt. Like sampling drum loops and using trigs to change the start point to get a chop-like effect. Ivar Tryti has made a bunch of fantastic songs that way, and the Syntakt can't do it.
TBH though, the Digitakt isn't particularly good at that sort of thing. At least, not compared to other gear in its class, like MPC. It has some other pretty big downsides too... like, I was never able to get files to/from my Digitakt because it uses a proprietary protocol. Mono samples only. Very limited effects. Not very good at chopping, especially when using just one track for chops. It also has a pretty low limit on sample memory, which makes a lot of sample-based styles totally impossible. Like, the last song I finished used 3X as much sample space as what the Digitakt allows, and it wasn't even a very complex song.
So I pretty much just used the Digitakt's built-in samples, tweaked to fit different songs. It did drums and midi sequencing. But it wasn't even great at drums. It took a while to set up each drum kit, and then it didn't even let me save the kit for reuse in other songs. And if I wanted to change the kit during the later stages of a song, like adjusting levels and timbres for a better mix after I had a few dozen patterns written, it required repeating the same edits on every single pattern individually.
The Syntakt doesn't fix all of these things, but I think it'll work better as a drum machine. It seems quite a bit better for the kit-building part of the process, which happens right at the beginning of a song and was a major source of friction on Digitakt. It also has some extra performance features to create fills and variations on the fly, which reduces the need for extra patterns and reduces the downsides of having a bunch of patterns. Extra tracks too, so less need for p-locking different instruments in a single track to fit more tones in. And synth engines, so it has less need for external gear, or libraries of single-cycle waveforms, or samples in general.
But I don't plan to get one. Instead, I got a brand new Akai Force a few months ago for $100 less than the Syntakt, and have been much, much happier with it. It's basically Ableton in a box, with a bunch of useful plugins included, and the best parts of MPC, and it's even mod-friendly thanks to running Linux. It changed the core question of my musical process from "what *can* I do, within the limitations of my gear?" to "what do I *want* to do?"
I keep reading these negative comments but then I hear a perfect sound coming off the video, like, I don't buy any gear in this price range but I really like how this sounds.
It sounds like it sounds in the video. Go check my 16 minute music demo. Its all 100% Syntakt. No post processing. I don't ever post process demo/review sounds. Trust your ears. If you like it you like it, if you don't you don't. Sound is subjective.
thanks. i ended up getting a digitakt because i wanted to continue and expand some things I've been doing with a secondhand ES-1. it is the only ”expensive” gear i own, but it seems like a classic and I got to try out the elektron workflow so why not?
it is useful to have a box that can sound good and record it directly. having onboard eq, filters, compression with good sounding reverb and delays... makes that happen. I think the syntakt goes a step further because it has the analogue insert effects.
a nice thing about having a digitakt is that watching a video about the syntakt can still teach you things since some tricks are in both. that's why i am back watching this.
Nice review.
This machine definatly has the Elektron sound and vibe. Looks like natural upgrade to the digitakt.
Bo how you always so bodacious with those beats.? Great showcase. You da man.
Great video, uploaded at exactly the same time as loopop's...maybe the Synktact synced things?!
Concerning the modifiers: indeed, it would be very useful that the buttons don't trigger the sounds, to add punctually more reverb to a sequenced hit. It would even be more awesome if for the same modifier, one could control several parameters. For example: first two buttons (out of the 4 modifier buttons) control reverb, last two control delay. That would allow to make something similar to "dub remix" (without having to switch from M3 to M4 for accessing different FX), would love that !!
Would be great to see separate video like the workflow section where you slow down and explain what you are doing at each step like a tutorial.
I have been considering making such a video
🤤this looks amazing
Well done Bo! I recently thought about getting the digitone but this box will probably also fit pretty good to my digitakt and octatrack ;)
Id love to see a digitone review and/or tutorial!!! I love the way you explain stuff
Thank you!
Wow this looks awesome but being a newbie I'd probably get lost with all the options so I'll keep looking for something simpler and keep this one in the back of my head for future. Great showcase too :)
Do you think it will be that complex, I hope to be able to create some simple tracks with this one with ease?? @bobeats Thoughts??
@@magnuseriksson8081 there's a few good tutorials on youtube. seems basic enough
I think it would be the perfect box for my taste, weren’t it for the only two boxes I own are the Machinedrum and Analog Keys. I kinda feel the Syntakt is a mix between these two devices in a smaller and more portable form factor, but less deep in synthesis capsbilities. So can’t wait for the secondhand prices for digitone’s and OT’s to go down when this becomes readily availabe!!
Exactly! Also owner of the MD, AR and AK, I was really hoping for a 2022 revampled Machinedrum, and the Syntakt could have been that if it had 16 tracks, multiple outputs and uses the larger box format (much more better for livesets, in my opinion). But let's have a try and see what the Syntakt can do and how it compares to the AR mkII.
Hi Bo! I think the solution to the performance controls at min 24:10 is to just turn TRIG off ( in the setup menu to the very left, which you see here at min 23:33) So you can choose if you want it to trigger or not! In that case your wish might have come true :)
ive tried this and also discussed it with elektron and apparently it still triggers the track sound
@@BoBeats oh ok!!!! Let´s hope they fix it in a future update!!
@@BoBeats darn I was hoping this was it too
love the machine section! NICE SOUNDS!!!! Love it! This thing will be an electro power house cant wait to get my hands on it :D
Elektron timed this release well. I think we'll being seeing and hearing a lot of these on people's desks and studios.
I have a space ready for it next to my digitakt & digitone can't wait 🤓
It's weird that on paper it seems to be ticking most of the boxes yet based on what I've seen so far, I'd take an AR or a Machinedrum any day over this one.
This is the shiny new box on the block that's got everyone gassing. But if you check out the used market for Analog Rytm/Four MKIs, the pair can be had for around the new price of a Syntakt. If you can stand the crappy screens, that's a powerful one-two punch. You lose a few cool new features and the sleek compactness but gain a bunch of stuff that got left off without growing your footprint terribly.
Good advice!
Can the Syntakt send more than one note over MIDI at a time. Eg can it sequence a polyphonic external synth polyphonically. If you know what I mean?
Yeeee you’r the first one to make me want to buy it 😬 good tweaking sessions !!!
Glad u checked the vid!
Hi Bo, good review as always! My curiosity, how much time do you have available from the Company to learn and prepare a review for new products?
Regards✌🏻
The video I've been waiting for! I've noticed that there is a dearth of info on how to chain patterns, is it the same as the Digitakt? Does it have a song mode?
Could you please do a video (or link one) running pulsar through syntakt? From connections to settings for both!?!? :)
I like what you are doing in the drum machines section, that was sick.
Finally did a impromptu set at a Bar and heard the Syntakt on PA.
OMG!
I really have No Clue what I'm doing.
I brought it cus I had Gas and wanted sumthin different. (But mainly for the Chords)
But , WOW! I'm excited about WHAT I can build with it NOW that I heard it's potential.
it sure sounds bad ass!
great video. thanks bo!
Neat! My favorite Elektron unit is the Analog Heat (MKii), I hope they make something like that again! Like a sister unit to it or somethin, I really don't even know what it would be since the AH is so deep and unique but I'd love to see Elektron announce it haha
haha
After playing about with the chord machine for a few weeks I've become a little more familiar with it.
On the whole, I still think it stinks, *BUT* I've managed to wring some nice drones and pads out of the unison modes, using the LFO to control a tiny bit of detune.
Give it a go maybe.
I still really dont like it 😅🤟
After the last disappointing products, glad to see that Elektron is back! Just a question about Polyphony: On A4 and Monomachine it was possible to set some of the tract as 'poly' and use them like this. Is this possible with Syntakt too?
No. See my followup ”responding to comments” where I explain further
Jordan from simply synthesizer group here. Any chance we could get a tutorial on how to make ACID BASS? I have been trying but I'm not getting that sound. 😕
The key is using filter envelope and the 2 vco analog machine together
Those demo tracks you made are slappin!
mm...if you have no EleK machines this is a good option , not tempting me from the digitakt at the moment . I would love a 8 output option analogue for the digitakt .
You want the RYTM then.
Very interesting device. I didn't tried any electron device for any long time (only 2-3 hours just for try in some studios or stores) - but I'm ordered the Syntakt and waiting it in a 3 weeks.... I think it'll be interesting :)
nice vid Bo, as always. I am looking for a groovebox where I can program melodies (lead/bass) controlling the size of the notes (wholes,1/2 1/4 etc), and visulaize it as a kind of piano roll or some sort of it, I have in my short list the deluge and the polyend tracker. Is there any other option that is not just a sequencer?, maybe the maschine +, but the size look biger than dely and polyend tracker
Thanks for this great video, is there a song mode in the Syntakt ?
Bo, grym demo som alltid, lätt att använda för en amatör som inte kan spela ett enda ackord? Grym kombo med din andra favorit, Maschine? Elektron har ju de ljud jag gillar.
Eftersom du inte kan spela akord på den är det inte ett krav. Men nja, de är inte jättelätta maskiner precis
@@BoBeats Grym kombo med Maschine? De flesta säger de kräver lite tid
Hi. Great channel, lots of useful info. Question. I was looking at buying myself a digitakt and digitone, however with the syntakt now available, what is the better option, could you help please
Digitone will give you the ability to play melodies and chords polyphonically. Its the better synth for making lead/pad/bass
Digitakt is sample based and works best for making drum beats but you can also load bass, lead and pad samples.
Syntakt is a bit like you took Digitakt but turned it into a drum synth + bass & lead synth. Its not great for pads tho.
Digitone + Digitakt is an amazing combo.
Syntakt + Digitone also works very well
Wouldnt get Syntakt + Digitakt combo
Owning a digitakt, is it worth getting this one or digitone? How do they all complement each other?
The Volvo of grooveboxes
Haha!
LOL
This and a 404 would really be all I need. I have a digitakt and digitone and I’ve sold my OT and A4 because they’re great but I really only ever used like 30% of what they do. This is really close to exactly what I’d ask for except maybe a second page with more parameters for the analog synth oscillators with wave morphing rather than wave select.
But that's like $1300+ of gear. You could get the Live2 along with a battery and speakers and a lot more daw features. I do love Elektron's step sequencer, but even an MPC One + beatstep pro would be a cheaper combo and imo get you a lot more creative potential.
@@sugarhigh4242 I have an MPC one and tbh I despise the MPC workflow. It’s a necessary piece for one of my projects but that’s really it. As far as DAWs and plugins go, I’m a hardware person. I don’t like using a computer to make my music, it feels like I’m still at work.
11:27 - I just destroyed my first project using this function... why doesn't it reverse to what it was before the tweaking?
everything is the greatest ever made with you
Not at all. As of recent I have reviewed:
Korg Volca Fm 2 = it sounds good but it also has some annoying things
Malevolent = had some issues
Nanobox = one of them was pretty cool, the other one not so much
NiftyKEYZ = really good
Cobalt 5S = sounds good, but isnt super exciting
So no. Everything isnt the greatest ever. But I do try and avoid spending a week or more on things I can’t see value in
Sounds great mate. I'd be super interested in a way to plug this into a mixing desk like a breakout adapter. The sound engines and controls look much more useable.
It's got a little of this and a little of that!
Would love to see some jams with it paired with the digitone. And a sampler -digitakt,MPC, maschine etc.
Very excited for this machine. Already on order!
How much did it cost sir?
Excellent video!
Question: this machine have an ARP (arpeggiator)?
No. That would also have been really good!
What DAW-less hardware device are you recommending as a main MIDI/USB controller (for complete song-creating) for Digitakt and Digitone? Is Machine+ or MPC Live 2 something you recommend or is there other "better" choice especially for Elektron gears?
just ordered one so excited!
Have fun!
I heard this device had 12 voices, and it was a groovebox with analog, digital and effects and I thought it would be something that would give Roland MC707 a good run for their money.
Sadly it is nowhere near. The "synth engines" are pretty lackluster. I mean, they sound exactly like you would expect from a Digitone or other Electron devices, so it is not necessarily a bad thing, if this is the sound you like.
I was thinking that this was the endgame in terms of having a device with a great sequencer (Electron made the best sequencer workflow I think), coupled with good engines to express different types of sounds. But sadly this box is lightyears behind any synth; except maybe the opsix. Again, great if this is the sound you like but if you already have few digital and analog synths, and were thinking to put those away and use the Syntakt... Ain't gonna happen. I would totally buy this if I had no other gear or just one single synth; but as I already own plenty of analog and digital synths; this would be just another box getting dust in my collection.
Thanks for your review; it really saved me a bunch of money!
How did you know I was having coffee 🤫🖖🏽🎼👑da KINGDaddY is awake for musica.
Ugh, I need this now too!
Great review. Thanks 👍🙏
How is the low end? Ended up selling the rytm because of the missing low end in the club.
I feel like Elektron makes the same machine again and again, just some feature lacking here and there. Isn't all the product line a succesion of drum making things? The A4 and Digitone are the only real melodic synths the offer.
Even though I feel this one is pretty cool, but it does look like reinventing a bike - this one is not original - just a mix of model:cycles, a4 and analog rytm all in one. I think they have great great stuff, but something fresh would have been nice, I really wanted to see their interpretation of granular synthesis...
Yup, you nailed Elektron product strategy.
Got to catch m all 😋
@Ternary Form Really wish so!
I wonder if they’re ever going to give us a true successor to the Octatrakt with Overbridge..
Yes please I will take two
Can we say that Syntakt can do all (and more actually) what Digitakt can, except sampling? thx
