SOLID SAMPLES

Elektron Model:Samples is packed with over 300 high-quality digital samples curated by professional beat-makers at Splice.com. Build custom kits with up to six samples. Select from classic kicks, snares and hi-hats or load non-conventional sounds to help your beats stand out from the crowd. Tweak samples to suit your taste with the twist of a knob. Expand your sound with sound packs from your favorite producers, or load your own samples to create totally original beats.

HANDS-ON CONTROLS

Making beats with Model:Samples is quick, easy and fun. Designed to be as easy to use as possible, Model:Samples features an intuitive interface with one function per knob—a first for Elektron. Quickly lay down beats with six velocity-sensitive pads. Record raw performances without quantization, or build your beat block-by-block with a dedicated 64-step sequencer for each channel. Transform sounds with controls for pitch, frequency cutoff and resonance. Modulate signals using the built-in LFO. You can even add effects to each channel using built-in reverb and delay sends.

DON’T CALL IT A DRUM MACHINE

Model:Samples is so much more than a simple step sequencer. Switch to Chromatic Mode to craft bouncing baselines, flowing arpeggios and ear-catching melodies. Automate any parameter with the Parameter Locks feature to add new depth to rhythms. Add new life to sequences with the Chance parameter. Or sync it with the Controls All function for instant inspiration.
