  1. I absolutely love everything about this box. Easily one of the best things I’ve ever purchased. It’s an absolute steal for the price. I have a Microfreak running into it and the pair make an amazing ambient setup…I’ve barely touched my Elektron boxes since getting it!

  2. I can’t get this update to start. It requires Chrome or Edge browsers, which I had to install and really don’t want on my computer and it still didn’t work. Am annoying waste of time.
