"Each year, Reverb takes stock of what musicians across the globe are buying and selling as a way to keep players up to date on the latest gear trends. Today, we're sharing a big one: The best-selling electronic gear on Reverb this year.

The headline: After five years, the Teenage Engineering Op-1 has been dethroned. That's right -- the TE OP-1 is no longer the best-selling piece of electronic gear for the first time in half a decade...and oh how the mighty have fallen, with the OP-1 coming in at #5. However, it's not all bad for the Swedish synth brand.

Teenage Engineering had three pieces of gear -- the OP-1 (#5), the EP-133 K.O. II (#6), and the OP-1 Field (#11) -- in the top-10, as the brand continues to expand. Point and case: Teenage Engineering debuted the OP-XY just last month.

Both the OP-1 (#3) and the OP-1 Field (#19) finished inside of the top-20 best-selling used synths and electronic gear.

Elektron's Digitakt topped the list, largely due to the release of the Digitakt II and Digitone II models earlier this year. The brand's 2024 debuts helped propel Elektron's Digitone to #9 -- and you can get both the Digitone and Digitakt for a great price thanks to a $160+ drop in the cost of used models for both.

The Digitakt topped the list of best-selling used synths and electronic gear this year, further proving its popularity.

The Ableton Push 2 (#2) and the Korg Drumlogue (#4) both jumped into the top-five thanks to great deals from the brands' respective official Reverb shops.

Korg finished as second on the list of the best-selling electronic gear brands, while Roland took home the gold, Yamaha took home silver, and Akai and Arturia rounded out the top-five.

While Ableton's Push 2 was a best-seller, the standalone Push 3 was beat out by Native Instruments' Maschine+, which finished #11 on the list of the overall best-selling drum machines, samplers, and controllers.

Dimension 🎲 (Elektron Digitone + Particle + Deco // Korg Drumlogue // Sequential Take 5)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"This is the last video closing the trilogy featuring the Take 5 and Digitone! [previous videos below this one via this link]

The track begins with a sequence played by the Digitone (through the Particle granular delay which is being blended in from time to time on the intro + Deco tape saturation & doubletracker pedal effect).

Then the analog tracks of the Drumlogue are being unmuted, along with the BASS & LEAD which are being played live on the Take 5.

As often, I'm using only one pattern on the Digitone and one on the Drumlogue (but used a lot of automation, probability etc. to add variations)

Further on I switch to the LOOP mode on the Drumlogue in order to add some real time breaks."

Shuffle Trip 🔀 (Elektron Digitone + Particle + Deco // Korg Drumlogue // Sequential Take 5)

video upload by 2-Minute Warning

"This track starts with a PAD sound sequenced and played by the Elektron Digitone (Polyphonic Digital Synthesizer). I then enable the Doubletracker effect (on the Strymon Deco 2 tape simulation pedal) and unmute 2 other tracks on the Digitone, playing a LEAD and CHIMES sounds.

Enters the Korg Drumlogue (analog and digital drum machine) with some DRUMS (I used only one drum pattern where I made use of STEP probability to add some variations to the pattern).

And finally the BASS line played by the Sequential Take 5, sequenced by one MIDI track of the Digitone. In order to create this beefy dirty BASS sound, I use the onboard OVERDRIVE and DISTORTION effect of the synth! 😎🤘 The BASS line is also playing in triplets to add an odd groove to the track (it wasn't so easy to program on the Digitone MIDI track as I needed to shift each notes off the grid manually 😅).

Hope you'll enjoy!"

Beat Breakdown with Nate Wood on the KORG drumlogue

"Nate Wood takes us through a beat breakdown of how he composed, 'Guru Model,' & demonstrates his masterful use of the New KORG Drumlogue and the fantastic features it offers to enhance his creative process.

Nate harnessed the full potential of the Drumlogue by utilizing all 64 steps, the randomizer to introduce certain notes at specific intervals, giving the piece an ever-changing and dynamic feel, & its built-in nano synth voice adding a unique and powerful bass layer to Nate's composition that serves as the backbone of the song. Mixing standard drum machine sounds with captivating synth sounds, he effortlessly brings in and out different elements, creating a mesmerizing musical tapestry."

"Nate Wood joins us in the studio for a full performance of “Guru Model” from Nate Wood – fOUR, a project recorded entirely in one take with no overdubs! Watch as the multi-instrumentalist builds out this intricate song on the fly incorporating the use of the new KORG drumolgue, as well as the beloved minilogue xd, and monologue. After being introduced to the drumlogue, Nate was able to create “Guru Model” within just a few hours of using drumlogue, and he finds that drumlogue is super intuitive to use and is the perfect complement to the minilogue xd and monologue."

"Here is my personal comparison between the Boss CE-2w and the TC.Electronics SCF Gold+ with a little help of my Roland JX-8P and 3P, Modal Electronics Argon8X, Arturia Drumbrute Impact, and a Waldorf Zarenbourg Desktop Module.
