I’ve sold my first one to get an analog rytm mk2. Ended up buying Syntakt again, it’s so quick to create ideas on, I never feel not inspired

So, you get all individual tracks but no FX at all? Can you not run it all back through the Syntakt ext. input to apply overdrive or whatever?

Nice video. For me a groovebox needs to be an inspiring piece of gear that allows me to create a piece of music without a pc that I enjoyed making and want to listen to (and hope others do to:). I think you showed this can be true with the syntakt. I’m still not sure if it is right for me… but maybe Santa will deliver one to me to try :)
@johnnygorillas Жыл бұрын
You can create cool stuff on the syntakt alone but I also really enjoyed connecting it to other gear. I hope Santa will do the right thing :)

Hey thanks, very helpful vid as I consider buying one. About the overbridge problem, you get all individual tracks but no FX at all? Can you not run it all back through the Syntakt ext. input to apply at least some overdrive after or something?

Depends where you're coming from. I've had a Model Samples before, so I knew a lot already. There's always a learning curve but I don't think it's too hard with the Digitakt/Syntakt.
@neonpop80 Жыл бұрын
Hey nice of wifey to bring you waffle, and excellent journaling. Do you think it’s worth getting a Syntakt when I already have a Digitakt and a JX08? I’m finding it hard to justify the big price but I kinda love the idea of Syntakt as a stand-alone techno box
@johnnygorillas Жыл бұрын
Do you sequence the JX from your Digitakt? That gives the Digitakt basically one external synth engine, doesn't it? If you want 12(!) more, the syntakt could be great ;)

To recreate the Kshmr kick on the Syntakt, try playing around with the BD Plastic analog machine. It has a lot of that higher-end punch you need.

Would you recommend this machine as a first one for a newbie?
@johnnygorillas Жыл бұрын
@@AlexanderShelestov I friend of mine actually bought one as as a total newbie and he loves it so far. If you want to have a hardware setup (and no computer) and start with one piece of gear, the Syntakt is great. If you want sampling you could go either Digitakt or something like a Maschine/Mpc. Novation Circuit can be a cheaper alternative for starting as well
@thiloeichhorn2654 Жыл бұрын
you got a really nice touch on this machine! 😊 great vid! the production workflow section reminded me why I sold my Rytm in exchange for the Tanzbär. The pure sounds were never exactly what I needed. Its all about the modulation and sequencing capabilities of the electrons. Complex percussions and baselines - this is where they shine... I'd like to see more gear porn from johnny gorillas. Someone should tell Benn Jordan he can retire 😜
@johnnygorillas Жыл бұрын
Thanks☺️ Tanzbär Sounds are awesome, no doubt! And I definitely agree on the positive aspects of the Elektrons. There’s a lot of of useful musical ideas in here, no matter if I use the BDs and Snares in my tracks 🙌

Really, no delay or verb or any fx at all via overbridge? 🤔
@johnnygorillas Жыл бұрын
you get the reverb and delay returns via overbridge. Only the "bus effects" cannot be part of the individual tracks....which actually makes sense, so I guess there's no way around it. Yes, you could later send everything back into the external ins but not sure if that is a effective workaround
