Context: I know and admire people doing great, comprehensive reviews and some companies' own videos (like Native Instruments themselves, Propellerhead, Ableton, and Camel Audio) are wonderfully-produced. But there's the raw, everyday, casual side to performance, what an enduser would experience. And that's what I show. I'm here to solve mysteries (not unlike Robert Stack... RIP... gosh the Unsolved Mysteries theme is awesome!) too so re: bafflement, any questions, let me know. I believe in leaving a recorder on when I don't expect a great performance to come out, because creativity bursts spontaneously that way. My webcam glitched so this video doesn't show me playing, but it was a lot of fun. Thanks Josh — if you look at Native Instruments' product line and decide you want a few more of their soft synths, I'd opt for the Komplete bundle, which Elektrik is included in. It's a solid deal, a great one if Bing (formerly Live) cashback comes back on eBay — I got a 25% savings on Kore 2 Komplete 5 via Nova Musik's eBay presence! Again (and never less appreciative than the first time), thanks for sharing the videos I make, synthhead!

Elektrik sounds pretty good, but it sure needs some tricks to complete the sound. I'll give it a try! - Josh Nice one Torley, thanks for making this.
