Elektron guru Matthew Piecora – in his latest EZBOT video – shares an in-depth look at Elektron Syntakt OS 1.40.
Piecora covers the new Twinshot sample player, Key Tracking and more. But he’s probably most excited about Choke Groups, which he says he’d like to see brought to all the current Elektron boxes.
The video is close to an hour long, and goes deep into the new features.

Condukt is a new ‘Universal MIDI controller’ for iOS, iPadOS and macOS.
The app features a database of 200+ synths, samplers and drum machines, and turns your device into a hands-on interface for your hardware synthesizers.
It adds more knobs and faders, new options for modulations, and even several types of sequencers.
The developer has shared examples of Condukt in action, with dozens of different synths, on their Youtube channel.
Condukt is available now in the App Store for $9.99 USD.
