Syntakt : love it

I think overall this a great little machine and i've been infatuated with it since I got it. Honestly intimated by it's potential sometimes.. ill put 2 lfos on 1 random synth track and after a little tweaking its like the craziest glitched out synth mod ive ever heard. You'll go in the studio and cook up a fire drum pattern ?melody and you'll be like what ?? how did that take 3 minutes versus hours digitally.. for me this thing is a godsend overall

Sure it has some flaws and restrictions like most especially newer tech does.. but they're hard to pinpoint and certainly have room for improvement. In my opinion even more modulation capabilities could be included in the sense of, recording knob modulation in the live recording section. The live recording function could use some work too and more paramater/time options. Thing has a lot of potential but I don't see myself using it as a standalone box, even though its totally possible to do so its just not quite my style, it seems best hardwir

I have the audio outputting through volt2 & into ableton so i can pick and chose what melodies / drum patterns etc I want at certain times if need be, if song mode worked better this wouldn't be a huge issue. But again. Overall its a great piece of machinery that does what its supposed to and then.. a hellll of a lot more

it seems the goal of the syntakt wasnt to be a standalone machine at all, though of course this depends on intention. It seem best fitted pairing with other elektron products like the octatrack which personally I don't see an issue with. hope to get an octatrack one day but rn im in the process of building a eurorack :) cheers!
