Which Elektron Sampler Should You Get?

video upload by EZBOT

"What is the difference between the Digitakt II, Octatrack MK2, and the Tonverk? While all Elektron samplers offer similar workflows, they each lean into different musical concepts. We will also discuss the learning curve of each and why you might choose one over the others. There are technically four samplers available from Elektron, but for this comparison, we will omit the Analog Rytm since it functions more as a synthesizer than a sampler. If you have questions, feel free to ask them in the live chat!"

Techno Live Jam - 140 | Tonverk meets Perkons HD-01

video upload by Mark Cee

"What heck, was feeling 140 today and thought about running Perkons main out into one input on Tonverk and the main send out into the other Tonverk input. Tonverk provides the FX Chain. Now I just move the sends on each Voice on Perkons. The vast amount of routing options and FX in Tonverk make it a pedal killer as well. It does a lot. Massive utility.

Perk still my favorite off all time."

"Have you ever wondered how to perfectly move into your next song without stopping the clock or abruptly jumping into the next pattern? This video shows you exactly how to do that with the Elektron Octatrack MK2."

Elektron Machinedrum | FM Field Kit

video upload by Akihiko Matsumoto

"Machinedrum Sample Pack
https://akihikomatsumoto.sellfy.store...
The Elektron Machinedrum, first introduced in the early 2000s, was not simply a drum machine. It was a digital architecture built to generate percussion with surgical precision and metallic sharpness. Its synthesis models produced results that went beyond drum programming, moving into the territory of sound design. Even today, no software plugin has managed to fully replicate its distinctive texture.
This collection captures that uniqueness. Every sample was recorded directly from the Machinedrum itself. No external processing, no layering. What you hear is the circuitry of early Elektron design, distilled into one-shots that highlight the instrument’s raw identity."

Performance Mixer: The Melodic and Drum Bus Explained

video upload by EZBOT

"The Melodic Bus and Drum Bus Performance Mixer concepts are built to make live sets feel effortless: faster routing, tighter control, and more expressive movement with fewer steps. They’re designed around practical performance decisions, so you can shape tone, space, and energy in real time without breaking flow, while still leaving plenty of room for your own style and surprises. In today's stream I will teach how to build this out on the Elektron Octatrack MK2. This is a deep dive tutorial.

Monomachine sequence through DIY gong speaker

video upload by copenhagennoiselab

"This was an experiment I made. A few years back I made a DIY gong speaker and amp - using a cheap gong gong, a salvaged akai reel to reel case and a class D amplifier. I wanted to play around with it this week - so I brought it out of storage together with an Elektron Monomachine. I made a simple 4 bar pattern based mainly on me liking the sound produced. I shared an image of the setup on the swedish 99musik forum - and was asked for a sound sample. Here it is. The dry output can be heard at the end."

How to Start Tracks: Fourm + Microcosm into Digitakt 2

video upload by Sineway

"Fourm into Microcosm into Digitakt II – how I built a beat from nothing, faster than I expected.

In this video I build a beat from scratch using a brand-new setup: Sequential Fourm into Hologram Microcosm, captured and shaped on the Digitakt II.

Instead of treating effects as something you add at the end, I’m using the Microcosm as an idea generator - letting it transform a simple init patch into something that suggests harmony, rhythm, and direction very early on.

This is the first time I’ve made a track with this exact setup, and I was honestly surprised by how quickly it led to usable musical ideas.

The goal here isn’t to finish a track. It’s to show how I like to start - how I go from nothing to a beat that feels worth exploring further.

If you’ve ever felt stuck looping the same pattern without knowing where to take it next, this video sets up the foundation for what comes after. I’ll continue from this exact loop in the next video, where I focus on breaking out of the single-loop deadlock and opening things up into multiple patterns and directions."
