Outbox 8 unlocks eight fully configurable, DC-coupled audio/CV outputs from your Elektron, class-compliant USB device, or DAW — creating new ways to route, process, sequence, and perform.

With compatible Elektron Overbridge-enabled instruments, send individual tracks or submixes to external mixers, effects, and hardware. Connect supported class-compliant audio gear and bring its USB audio into the analog world. Or connect Outbox 8 to your computer and turn your DAW into an eight-output audio and CV environment.

Each output can be configured for audio or CV, letting you combine multichannel audio routing with pitch, gate, trig, clock, and modulation in the same setup. Sequence modular gear from an Elektron or DAW, create hardware effect sends, build hybrid live rigs, or simply give USB instruments the physical outputs they never had.

OUTBOX 8.

Outbox 8 is a versatile eight-channel audio/CV breakout box and USB host/device designed to expand your connectivity, with creative possibilities to boot. It adds eight fully configurable physical outputs to a connected device, letting you send audio and CV in any combination its capabilities allow.

Route your audio to mixers, effects, and more - channel by channel. Or convert MIDI into CV signals to control your modular rig and other CV-controllable devices. Whatever the moment calls for.

Outbox 8 is compatible with Elektron Overbridge-enabled units, USB class-compliant MIDI devices, and many USB class-compliant audio devices. USB MIDI support is broad, while audio compatibility can vary by manufacturer and firmware; check Elektronauts for the latest confirmed devices. Outbox 8 also works as an audio interface, adding eight more outputs to your computer.

SEND AUDIO.

Outbox 8 enables you to route individual tracks or submixes from your compatible Elektron machine for external processing, mixing, or performance.

 

SEND CV.

With Outbox 8, you can assign outputs to CV duties - pitch, gate, trig, value lin, or clock - to bring modular and other CV-controllable gear into the same setup.

 

MIDI TO CV.

Use Outbox 8 as a dedicated USB MIDI-to-CV interface. Play, sequence, modulate, and synchronize modular systems and other CV-capable instruments with your Elektron box. Or connect a MIDI controller to play and control them directly.

 

EIGHT-OUTPUT COMPUTER AUDIO.

Connect Outbox 8 to your computer, tablet or phone and use it as an eight-output USB audio interface. Route channels from your DAW to mixers, effects, monitors, or other external hardware, while also converting MIDI into CV where needed.
