Elektron Musical Instruments

This is exciting. I hope that there are some analog components in
there with the DSP engines, hidden under the "multiple synthesis"
title. I could see them relying on their great interface/controller
aspect to make DSP reliance acceptable, as they did very successfully
in the MD, but I've been waiting for them to make a unique version of
an analog synth or an analog/digital hybrid (SID not included). It
looks sort of like an old Akai keyboard (AX-73, VX-600) take on an
analog keyboard controller, like the Analogue Systems French
Connection. Even without VCOs I'll probably buy one on preorder
because they'll have done a good job with the interface/controller
aspect, it's just that DSP is so replaceable whereas the Synthi A I've
been saving up for is something unique as a sound source, not
replaceable by any algorithm set because it relies on physical design
and imperfections. Since Elektron warned about cost in the release -
which is going out to most of the people who've ponied up for an MD -
and it's from Elektron I think this will have features like nothing
else. I'm glad and hope its features will be impressive enough to put
its price up to the level of the Minimoog Voyager. Is anyone going to
be at Musikmesse to take pics and make a review? One month, one month,
one more month...
