Elektron Analog Four Tabletop Analog Synthesizer
Key Features
  • Analog Synth with Digital Control
  • 4 Voices
  • Step Sequencer
  • Analog Oscillators and Filters
The Analog Four from Elektron is a four-voice, true analog synthesizer with digital control and effects. Other major features include full MIDI capability, an on-board step sequencer, six arpeggiators, and a performance mode that gives direct access to user-defined parameters. The Analog Four features four separate synth tracks with two analog oscillators and two analog filters each. The filters include a 4-pole low-pass ladder filter and a 2-pole multi-mode filter that are designed for intuitively shaping sounds. To add more sonic crunch, the filter section also contains an analog overdrive circuit. The saturation can range from gentle warming to total destruction.

Elektron Analog Four Overview

The Analog Four from Elektron is a four-voice, true analog synthesizer with digital control and effects. Other major features include full MIDI capability, an on-board step sequencer, six arpeggiators, and a performance mode that gives direct access to user-defined parameters. The Analog Four features four separate synth tracks with two analog oscillators and two analog filters each. The filters include a 4-pole low-pass ladder filter and a 2-pole multi-mode filter that are designed for intuitively shaping sounds. To add more sonic crunch, the filter section also contains an analog overdrive circuit. The saturation can range from gentle warming to total destruction.

The built-in step sequencer includes four dedicated synth tracks, one FX track, and one CV/Gate track with up to 64 steps per pattern, as well as 6 arpeggiators. Other step-sequencer features include track transpose, swing, slide and accent functions. Overbridge is a software extension that allows for the use of Elektron's analog hardware as a plug-in within a DAW. Design sounds on-screen using an intuitive and dedicated plug-in, or use the knobs and keys on the Analog instrument, or do both at the same time. Enjoy precise synchronization and automation. Use the strengths of the Elektron sequencer and the software sequencer to get the best of both worlds.

Analog Synth, Digital Control
Analog synth and filters with full MIDI and digital control
Four Voices
Four synth tracks that each features two analog oscillators, as well as one 4-pole low-pass ladder filter and one 2-pole multi-mode filter for sound shaping
CV/Gate and DIN Sync
CV/Gate and DIN sync outputs allow legacy analog gear to be controlled. Sequencer features like arpeggiators and parameter locks can be used in conjunction with older equipment
Step Sequencer
Four synth tracks, one FX track,and one CV/Gate track with up to 64 steps per pattern and 6 arpeggiators. Other features include track transpose, swing, slide and accent functions
On Board Effects
Digital effects processing which includes chorus, saturator delay and reverb
Overbridge
Integration software that bridges the gap between the Elektron analog hardware and music-studio software through a single USB connection. Available now for Ableton Live, but future updates will include other platforms. Firmware update 1.23 makes the instruments fully compatible with Overbridge 1.10
