hugopal …fair enough, you’ve played it, I haven’t. Maybe it’s because it seems to have a higher percentage of the type of sounds I’m after in its presets than some of the options, and the arps/sequencer look really versatile and fun.
303abuser …I know how there are real devotees of the Elektron gear and hear so many positive comments on here and elsewhere, but I’ll be honest, it all feels a bit like learning ANOTHER way of working, and I think a common factor in the kit that interests me is that a lot of the manipulation happens via the knobs on the front (certainly a lot of people say that about the Peak), and I don’t get that impression with the A4 etc.
Lusted after a Sub 37 for ages, but I do find some of those options a little less versatile (and yes, techno!) for my purposes. Went through a phase of wanting the Deepmind 12D, you can pick them up on eBay for crazy cheap and they seem incredible value for money, but watched loads of tutorials, and was ultimately put-off by the amount of menu deep-diving.
