Pitch tracked LFO's!!!! Thank you so much, guys!

The new p.lock note probability & LFO disconnection from Tempo are killer! Cenks a happy chap & it's infectious. Nice to see Jimmy too!

wow, some stunning features now available. Just added a OT to join my A4 so looking forward to Overbridge tweaking!

Those machines are truly incredible.

Oh man a lot more!!!! Trig condition and fill mode, on both machine, that's soooooooo cool!!!

Hard work behind that! Impressive work. This is something very special in the world of analog+daw.

This is a great update guys! Super excited! Keep it coming!! Cheers Elektron

Thanks Sonic State and Elektron! Elektron you guys are doing amazing things! Super stoked!

Yesssss. New LFO types look great!

really excited about the new OS ! keep up the good work elektron ;)

there is some revolutionary stuff going on right there :o so glad I bought the AR !

loving my analog keys, now even more i feel with the new update ....oh happy days

amazing, the way this makes it so easy to integrate other machines and eurorack is wicked!

Reminds me of a Ronnie barker professor sketch. As you can see. It's all very simple.

brilliant work guys u should be proud elektron !

In case some didn't catch it - they're demoing how you can route audio channels from your DAW, down the USB cable, THROUGH the analog circuits of the machines...analog filter, analog overdrive, envelopes, stereo analog compressor, etc.

Very, very interesting! The new OS stuff alone makes me really think of the Rytm and the integration I could get with my x0x boxes and Eurorack thru Overbridge... eeek! I know it aint gonna happen but I would KILL to have this retrofitted to my MD & MnM...

These machines keep getting more and more complicated. Having a hell of a time with my set up!

Damn. You're gonna ended up making me get a Rytm to keep my A4 company.

I am very excited about this. The new updates to rytm and the A4 look really good and are totally welcome. I was actually really interested in overbridge too. Initially I was a bit underwhelmed when i tried it out but this presentation has shown a lot of great potential for a studio work and hybrid hardware/software setup that i hadn't thought of before. Using the machines even as a processor for other inputs or jamming with others is really useful too for recording. For the people whining about not wanting to use a mouse and blah blah blah, i think you are missing the point. They are not forcing you to use a mouse. That isn't what is changing. Elektron is giving you extra tools and more options for you if so choose to use it. personally I feel like not taking advantage of all of your potential tools seems like a waste but that is just me. *shrugs* Elektron gear is not just a single job tools like a plain old kitchen knife. They are multi use tools like a swiss army knife that are capable of doing many things to many ends. The only issue i have with elektron is missing dates that they setup for releases in the past. I think (and hope) they will learn from their past mistakes though.

major update! it keeps getting better and better.

looks great, can't wait to get my hands on this update.

looking great!!

BRAVO!!!! you guys ROCK!

Wow this is awesome. Support from Stockholm !!

Would be interested in knowing if they are running in 16bit or 24 bit mode in Overbridge and how many tracks they are running total. Overbridge does have limitations as there is only so much bandwidth over USB. Also can't seem to get as much sync as shown in the video. Sync with AR and Ableton very good, passing sync from AR to Beatstep Pro sending notes to Waldorf Pulse 2 to audio channel in Ableton and there's considerable latency.

what a glorious update. cant wait to get my hands on this :) also, i need a rytm now.

The achilles heel of the Elektron AR is getting samples into the machine. Does overbridge have a USB sample import and management facility? I know it can be used to move samples from the +drive to the sound pool, but if you could transfer them over from the mac/pc and name them, truncate them, etc using overbridge that would be handy. Simply just transferring them to the AR from laptop using Overbridge would be great. (getting C6 out of the process)

Love that company!

looks cool, sounds cooler!

Pretty sure that Cenk is responsible for about 90% of Elektron's sales, everything he does with these machines is bad ass

yup, yup... YUP! yup. YUP. yea, yup.

What about the Retrig sync?? I bought the AR looking for that feature since IT IS IN THE MANUAL and not on the machine... please guys! Electribes feature that and were made in 2003!

wait to smoke out until AFTER the demo is recorded guys

3:03 that's a good sequence. Love it. Peace ✌️ out people

I love the FM stuff on the Analog 4, was just thinking that was a bit of a missed opportunity doing some sound designing recently. And new performance trig options are neat too! Although are we getting support now for other DAWs with over bridge? Wasn't mentioned here. :(

@sonicstate can you send midi via the elektron rytm sequencer into ableton?

Keep in mind when they say "Very close" it is not the normal definition of very close. they were saying very close months ago.

so let me get this straight, i can have like 2 - 3 elektron instruments all plugged into the overhub and then that plugged into my computer via USB and Im ready to record sequnces and samples straight into my DAW (Cubase in my case). Please tell me this is correct if it is I will go our right now and buy them.

When is the OS update meant to come out?

So when do you think the next sampler with overbridge functionality will come out?

Two of my friends got a Rytm and I get to jam with either, everyweek. It sounds great for my tastes...but, I got that Overhub and Overbridge and I've been running into some problems that someone might know how to get round (I am posting here as registering in the Eketron forum is not possible today). I need to select the Rytm as an input in my audio preferences in Ableton Live in order to get the individual tracks to pop up...meaning I cannot use my soundcard to monitor and record anything else, besides the individual Rytm tracks in Overbridge. Also, when doing this, I get latency, as opposed to when I monitor all of the Rytm voices from the Rytm plug in that is loaded into a MIDI track in Ableton. I wish the Rytm plug in was a multiout plug in (unless I am missing something, it is not) so I could route voices to different tracks without the latency I get when using Overbridge channels, as inputs. Also, even when just monitoring the Ableton MIDI track where the Rytm plug in is loaded in, I get some slight drift every now and then...its only for a few seconds, but yeah, its noticeable. And one last question, is there an Octatrack plug in, in the works? I am thinking about getting an Octatrack and this is important to me.

Those guys make it look far too easy but it just makes me lust after the two machines...

will the OT get p. lock probability?

elektron send back my fucking rytm

Yeah, a BASTL Instruments Rumburak! You don't see these too often.

hooolly shit this is amazing

If all USB, no audio interface how do you drive studio monitors ??

"Overhub" which looks identical to the $16 MTT USB 3 hub I got off Amazon. Probably *is* the same hub.

I downloaded Overbridge and I can't get it to work with my Analog 4

ROCKSTARS

Trig condition! Wow!!!

can we get a sine wave please

I must be getting old because what they're doing makes my head explode. I bought the A4 thinking that with Overbridge, I could also use the A4 as a Midi to CV converter between my Prophet 5 and my DAW. I tried it once and couldn't figure it out. Does this new OS make that possible? Without the A4 being the Master clock? Looks like it...... if I can figure it out.....

Is Cenk and Jenk the same person? I'm a bit confused :P

LFO keytrack.....now Analog Four can do both AM and FM... im too happy now!!!!!

Cenk just wants to make beats!

Coming 2018!!!

sometimes a simple acoustic guitar .... Cool updates tho.

I own three Elektron machines, and don't give a damn about Overbridge. The best part of their hardware has always been NOT needing a computer or mouse. Their new focus on DAW software is a bummer.

Thing is the more money that is thrown at the programming the more money you make. Majority of people do not want to have all these cables. Native instruments have done well so far, but a niche market is opening up.

When will they confess that Overbridge only works reliable with Ableton? What about Logic, Bitwig, Sonar, Cubase etc.? I love my Elektron stuff and surely don't depend on using a standalone-machine with a mouse, but I want total recall and automation. So... Ableton only, right..?

elektronnnnnnnnnnnn

Release 2017 😄

Elektron is failing so hard with Overbridge. Instead focus on what they were good, they are trying to go in the VST/AU marketplace, where there is beatiful synths/effects plugins already and no need for their machines. While these two machines are good standalone, I don't find any reason to buy them to work with a mouse.

YiEPYiEPYiEPYiEPYiEP YiEP .......... YiEPYiEPYiEPYiEPYiEP

Not the best sonic state with elektron vid. Thought this was very badly presented by elektron, the guys were all over the place and both explaining things at the same time. I think for those who do not own any elektrons would be very confused by all this, just very poor messy vid.

10:07 Obligatory PWM joke.

Meh, I will continue not using any computer, just my hardware.

This is literally the most confusing thing I have ever seen. (And I own two Elektron boxes).
