Four voice polyphonic analog tabletop synthesizer
The sound of worlds colliding — Inimitable analog sound combined with razor-sharp digital accuracy. The Analog Four MKII fuses together the best of both worlds.
Analog bliss
Organic, steely, warm, cold, chaotic, exact, and all the shades in between. Mold your own unique analog basses, leads, drums, and whatever other abnormal noises can be dreamt up. Program them with precision, or feel free to design as you go. With sounds as vast as the most infinite of palettes, entire tracks can be created from scratch.
From sounds to songs
Four synth tracks and an intuitive step sequencer enable you to easily create and layer melodies. Then play back your composition and immediately reshape it. Change notes, alter sounds, add effects. Make it as glistening and airy or dark and dense as you desire. Something beautifully unique will emerge every single time.
Modular control
Not only a splendid synthesizer, the Analog Four MKII can also make other gear sing. Thanks to the CV/Gate sequencing and DIN sync outputs, external analog gear can be controlled in great detail. Make any modular or vintage synthesizer rig come truly alive.
Class Compliant USB Audio gives you the freedom to connect to a compatible phone, tablet, or computer, and record or process your audio easier than ever before. Or software add app superpowers to give you untold parameter possibilities: more modulation, more LFOs, more magic.
Playability focused features
Spontaneous performance or meticulous composition: it’s up to you. Whatever your approach, you’ll be able to pull on a variety of unique playability features to uncover the next happy accident. Add some controlled randomness with Trig probability. Or use Step Recording to carve your patterns out step by step.
Inspiration dynamite
The Analog Four MKII comes chock-full of exceptional factory content to get you started. The likes of Eraldo Bernocchi, Spit Mask, as well as the dedicated Elektron team from across the globe, have collected a fresh bank of patterns and kits to tap into – giving you access to a variety of awesome audio slices straight out of the box.
