Elektron Model Cycles - happy or sad butt wiggles?

[behndy]

anybody excited about this?

$300 for a stripped down drum oriented Digitone. i'm a bit geeked.

The demo videos all sound really, really good. Particularly enjoyed this one:

Already ordered, I can't wait to grooooove.

Looks pretty fun. Not sure I have a use for it but I'd like to give one a try (this is true for all Elektron gear I don't have )

I think it sounds great, but I also think I don't have the time to learn it well enough to do the stuff I'd want to do with it. I might pick one up used down the line though when life has settled down a fair bit.

lol. oh yeah. do i need it? NO. do i WANT it? YESSSSS.

that's actually what appeals to me? i am never going to use all the depth of even the Digi Elektron stuff, DEFINITELY not of the Big Boi Synths, so a stripped down down DOWN bugger gets me.... moist? like a crustacean?

annnnnnd because i have the self control of a horny marmoset on cocaine... preordered from DetMod.

Looks sick!
If I wasn't the proud owner of a Volca Drum and a Digitone, I would most likely split the difference and grab that cycles!

[behndy]

feeeeeeel you. i'm where all my drums come from WMD modules or Salmplehrger, waiting on a Pulsar-23, this looks like ridiculous groovebox fun.

edit - also, feel like this will prevent me from getting seduced by any more tweak butts drum modules like Akemies or SYO.5 and their ilk. they're awesome, but not for me.

[mr. sound boy king]

I would buy this excellent looking box but already own VOLCA FM and iPad with Ruismaker FM on it. I hope everyone who gets one of these makes shredding fuckin' jams with it.

After the Model:sample being a stripped down Digitakt, this Model:Cycle was almost the next logic move for Elektron.
Btw having already myself both DT and DN, I won't get one.
But as an entry model for people who doesn't own already an elektron machine, this is brilliant!

[behndy]

yesssssh. i had a Digitakt, i was pretty baller, but i didn't love using it enough to get comfortable with it's depths. turned me away from grabbing a 'Tone, as awesome as it sounds.

this looks like it sits exactly where i'd want to use a FM machine. i am EXCITE.

[coldbrightsunlight]

I am jamming with my digitakt right now and thinking this looks like a fun companion. but a midi controllable fm thing might be a better option if such a cool thing exists. Not that I'm after a new synth right now. But future...

[Psyre]

My main set up is machinedrum+digitone, so this isn't something I'll be going after, but my collaborator has eyes on it now and I'd love for him to pick one up.

Price is good.
