Why didn’t I buy this before. Totally changed my workflow. Quicker to get ideas down. Works like a charm with Ableton.

I own a DT & DN, and after watching approximately 10,000 hours of YouTube reviews, tutorials & jams, I had pretty good idea what to expect. The ST doesn’t disappoint! While the “machines” have only a few parameters each for sound design, the variety and generous number of tracks makes it possible to come up with very unique ideas. The Elektron workflow is is really fun and deep.

Elektron consistently knock the ball out of the park with their synths and drum machines. Sequencer is second to none when comparing like for like and their units always sound monstrous.
