Some people don't have the imagination to understand the other types of musicians that are looking for a live performance sample player. Not everybody is striving to be a bedroom Four Tet, using the Sample as their main workstation or wanting a device to directly sample while they're on the subway. There are countless drummers and keyboard players out there that want to trigger samples live with their group while playing their main instrument. 6 pads is more than enough, probably overkill in most scenarios. The Sample is almost exactly what they're looking for - something to trigger with a brief finger hit, something your attention doesn't get lost in fiddling around with submenus and an overly complex interface.

Even Cenk is annoyed by the lack of scale per track in their products. COME ON ELEKTRON

I'm still hopeful it will come in a firmware update, but I think Elektron is much more likely to please us.

Cenk is a true master he can even make a mediocre product sound great..

not bad at all... I think that if I have a problem with getting more money , then I would probably buy this unit as it is fast to make live music and does a lot of glitch sound I love. Unless I buy the other stereo Elektron hardware this year, I have to stay happy with Digitakt - which is to me - super-small-portable -working on powerbank ,drum/synth-sampler composer on every journey always with me. I love it. Its worth lil bit extra... the con is its mono. ps. I see a lot of bad opinions about "Model"... I hope it's not gonna be the same like with Novation Mono Station - I don't see many users on KZread pushing a thumb up button after watching their videos, nor ma y views... ,tho not like me as I have 2 units and want to buy a third one. Great video as always!

I wonder if using as a sequencer, all the encoders that would be used for sample manipulation could be used to send cc to mod the externally sequenced gear?

Nice

my dsi tempest is an 8 bars loops , and most of time the “ chance “ fonction is used to reach this 8 bar feel . combining 8 bars loop on 8 patterns , with 8 variations patterns ( 1 with 9 / 2 with 10 and so on ... ) and with the swap function you can use on the fly between bank A and B , I think you don’t need a “ chance “ tool to approach this . Just think DEEPLY about what the tempest can do without , like the exemple I am talking about . stay creative . news features on electronic devices will always happen , we just need to think what we can do with our machines instead of thinking about what we cannot do . at the end of that way of thinking , your wallet will be healthy and you will start to play like this great Cenk :)

Concerning your solution, I use the Tempest for live shows, so I need to have all the tracks in one project to avoid loading time (and loss of clock synchronization). But thanks for the tip.

Good point. I’m guessing it’s very capable, as it is the case with other Elektron boxes. To me, the biggest problem is that, as I understand, the midi tracks are not additional but replace the audio ones, so you cannot have more than six (compare that to a Volca Sample 8 voice polyphony!). With other Elektron sequencers the midi tracks are additional. I hope I’m wrong and that is the case here too because six tracks are very limiting. You could have bass, lead, chords and only three parts of percussion... on top, it also seems you cannot change programs to use several samples in the same track & pattern to create the effect of having greater polyphony. In sum, you’d need an additional sequencer for at least one of the parts (if you want a standard four parts percussion set).

@valdiskrebs566

Linas Mak good call, that seems possible here and might work in many cases. The minus with it is that it’d detract from the “immediacy” of the workflow advertised for this machine. In any case, the 6 tracks problem is not that terrible considering many synths today come with their own sequencer.

The problem is MIDI has been a lackluster standard since its introduction with very little effort to remedy its flaws up until recently with the announcement of 2.0. Doing simple note on/off commands and such is fine but any demanding high resolution CC modulations and it will start to choke and cause too much latency to be of much use where timing matters, Elektron knows this and therefore sticks with internal sound generation first and foremost.
