Elektron Musical Instruments

A vocoder would be nice, especially if the Vocal synth could be used 
as a modulator. Also I'd quite like to see a percussion synth, the 
Beatbox is great but it would sure be nice to be able to have a 
dedicated syndrum type synth in there along the lines of say a 
Synare, (with filter etc, not some basic offering like the ER-1) 
capable of allsorts of swooshes and percussive madness.

A filterbank would be handy too, each of the 8 knobs could be a set 
frequency and if it were integrated in the fx synth it would be nice 
to have the amp section as an envelope follower, great for funky 
autowah type stuff and general sculpting.

All in all I think the Monomachine is destined to be a great synth 
with some real power and unusal features, for me the sequencer is a 
key part in the appeal of this synth, a few more features added to 
this already cool sequencer could really set it apart from anything 
else. I have posted some of these suggestions at the Beta page. 

Well done to Daniel and the Elektron team!

...that's where the Machinedrum jumps on the scene! :)

exactly!  by the way, I really do like the beat-box on the MM. I like
being able to adjust the re-trigging parameter on a global level; it's a
very IDM type of sound to me. I wish the MD could do something like
that, so that I could adjust the re-trigging of several drum tracks with
one knob twist (in realtime).
