Wack and over-priced, like most of the electronic music gear HN fawns over. You're absolutely kidding yourself if you think this is somehow more capable than a computer and a controller. Elektron loves "prosumers" tho so keep shoveling money at them
- capableweb 4y ago> electronic music gear HN fawns over As someone who hangs around the scene a bit, HN is in no way special in fawning over Elektron gear, most people I know who professionally make electronic music adores most of the stuff Elektron puts out. > more capable than a computer and a controller No one has said this, and that's also not why anyone starts using gear like this. If you're just looking for "what's more capable" then yeah, you end up with a computer. But if you're looking for something where you can jam out songs without pausing or fiddling, then gear like this is optimal. For me, one of the main selling points of Elektron gear is that I don't have to use my computer, which I use enough for programming and other "business" things.
- jakearmitage 4y agoShow me a single controller that provides the cool UI that Syntakt has.
- enduser384729 4y agoUh anything that Native Instruments makes, for starters.
- capableweb 4y agoAre you talking about devices like the Maschine+ for example? Those are just DAWs in a more portable format. Works just like their Maschine software, but on a smaller screen and more hardware controls. Elektron makes hardware that is very different than a DAW-but-portable.
- enduser384729 4y agoI know what Elektron makes
- capableweb 4y agoOk, good for you? You're not really making a good effort in making your views understood here, so lets just leave it at that.
