At Superbooth 2026 we met with Joel from Elektron who revealed the company's latest innovation Outbox 8 This device is designed to add eight additional outputs to compatible Elektron instruments, elevating your setup's capabilities. Unlike typical expanding modules, the Outbox 8 focuses on pure functionality, offering balanced mono outputs that are DC-coupled, useful for audio and control voltage applications.
A standout feature of the Outbox 8 is its ability to be configured through a USB-C connection, making it versatile for various setups. Whether you're connecting it to a Digitone or another compatible model like the Digitakt, Analog 4, or Rytm Mark 2, you can tailor the outputs between audio and CV as needed. It functions as a class-compliant audio interface with additional benefits when using the Overbridge protocol.
Priced between 250-300 euros, the Outbox 8 was projected to be available by summer 2026. It focuses on output expansion, not input, which aligns with its single-minded purpose of enhancing existing gear.
