Critic Reviews

Arturia's take on Elka Synthex puts buttery layers, hypnotic arps in reach - CDM Create Digital Music

cdm.link

Arturia's SynthX V brings the elusive Elka Synthex to life with rich, warm tones and a user-friendly interface that makes layering and modulation a breeze. The standout feature is its multi-arpeggiator, which adds a hypnotic depth to any track. However, while the synth excels in sound quality and intuitive controls, it sometimes sacrifices complexity for simplicity, which may limit advanced users. Additionally, with competitors like Cherry Audio's Elka-X, potential buyers should weigh their options. Overall, SynthX V is a delightful homage to a classic, making it a worthy addition to any musician's toolkit.
