Elektron’s Outbox 8 is an audio output expander with a few tricks beyond adding outputs to Elektron gear. In this video, I explore its profiles, audio routing and mixer, measure latency, and look at its MIDI-to-CV capabilities.
I also take a look at the web app and how Outbox 8 works with non-Elektron gear, including using it as an MPC output expander, before wrapping up with the pros and cons:
