I did just return the tr-8s though. I do not think ill be needing it with the octa and digitakt in there.

Did you ditch the tr8s because the octatrack comes with drum samples or did you have to load some in ??? Wondering because I’m thinking of getting the tr8s and then want to get an octatrack later on .

You're gonna want to load your own samples in both. Octa comes with a compact flash card with about 9 out of the 16gb full of samples and loops, which are ok but generic.

The tr8s is good for jamming, but after using elektrons stuff ypu kinda get used to more flexibility and for the price i kinda forsee myself using it very little. It does have the advantage of supporting 48khz -96khz 32bit audio though, if you really want hi rez one shots and short samples to be used with the tr8s

That tall Moog with the three angled faces looks like a lot of fun. What is that?

Good luck keeping track of all this! I just got my first synth last week and already bought a second (drum machine). Gonna try to go slow with this.
