It began in 1998. In Gothenburg, the Swedish west coast city, characterized by its shipyards, docks and rusty harbor cranes, came to be the home of Elektron. And just like Elektron is a part of the city, the city is a part of Elektron. For us, the rugged industrial surroundings, the hint of stubborn outsiderness sometimes experienced while riding the tram resonate in our instruments.

And it’s not just the hardware. Outside of the machines, the award-winning Overbridge software suite fully integrates compatible Elektron instruments with computers – efficiently and intuitively.

Working at Elektron is all about the people. We value the creativity that comes from individuals working together as a team. And we like to think that this spirit is reflected in our instruments as well.
