I would personally go with this case instead, 1u row on the top is actually super useful and handy. Plus you wouldn’t have any HP taken up by the powersupply. Doesn’t seem much more expensive than the arturia racks
digitone is cool but could easily be $500, it’s a fucking digital box with a couple of ins and outs. price point must’ve worked for the digitakt
Roland did really well with the se-02 at 500 for a 3 osc analog. the knobs felt cheap as hell tho (banged up in store model?), so I suspect they cut some corners on the hardware (whereas the sh and d-05 digitals at 350 feel really solid)
Elektron gear always looks a little strange WRT price/features ratio. The thing with their stuff is that it’s the “whole is greater than the sum of its parts” thing. Everything is just really well thought out and integrated. Premium stuff for sure, but I don’t think its outlandish like most Moog or Buchla. They are well built machines and stand the test of time for touring/gigging. Very solid metal cases and nice feeling encoders and buttons. Screens on the new ones readable from any angle, and the new backlit buttons are ace when performing in the dark.
