Electron Syntax
is a 12-track drum machine and a synthesizer – a sonic machine that fuses analog and digital synthesis into an instrument with unimaginable possibilities. All sound design, sequencing and processing needs are fulfilled in this all-round mega-box, which can also lie in your lap. Syntakt is a beat specialist, full of percussive possibilities, with the 12 tracks can be used for melody, harmonies and bass. Syntakt, like all the other Elektron products, is very intuitive and graphical – which makes it a breeze to route your tracks, run external inputs through delay, reverb, analogue distortion and filters. There are even a few LFOs to play with. There is also a world class 64 steps sequencer.
The possibilities are never-ending
