Elektron syntactic

Product information "Elektron syntactic"

Elektron SYNTAKT is a 12‑track drum computer and synthesizer in one device.

Much more than that!
The SYNTAKT is a sound metropolis that fuses analogue and digital synthesis into an instrument with enormous possibilities.
All your needs for sound processing, sequencing or performance are fulfilled by the Elektron SYNTAKT. And the compact device even fits comfortably on your lap.

The SYNTAKT is not just a drum specialist with many percussive options — thanks to its 12 tracks it can also be used for melody, harmony and bass sounds. Experience sounds from the past and create new sounds for the future. The SYNTAKT contains over 35 analogue and digital machines.
(Machines = in the electronic world also called sound generators. Essentially the synthesizers inside the synthesizer.)

Each machine's sound can of course be influenced intuitively and playfully.
Choose and route your own tracks and external input via the FX track. Delay, reverb, analogue distortion and a few LFOs are available for experimentation. With SYNTAKT's four expressive modifiers you can unleash your sound with different speeds, retrigs and various settings of other parameters.
Via the keyboard mode you can also access a large variety of familiar and less familiar scales, which according to Elektron "...help you discover new places and take things to another level".

With the excellent 64‑step Elektron sequencer you can bring dynamic soundscapes to life:
The possibilities of the SYNTAKT are endless, the neon lights never go out, the underworld is unfathomable. Discover the worlds within worlds!
