I'll grab one of those eventually. :D :snax:

Also, just noticed they build a ring mod:

Blokañ is built around on the classic diode ring, where the diodes are tube based. The module uses a built in carrier signal (triangle wave) VCO (V/Oct) with is own output. In use the tube ring mod acts like a real ringmod with the benefit of sounding different from others due to the tubes usage, but it can be also on the noisy side, as the diodes in the tube can’t be matched, and it can leak a little the carrier wave, "it's not a bug, it's a feature “.

Screaming deal, that.
I've got to get off my ass and bring to reality that what has been quoted through existence.

The chances exist, are in fact highly probable. I've been operating in a mental fog the past couple of years, once I dig through the backlog of unmet commitments I'll make sure more surface.

"lightly used?" m'bruh that looks like it was subject to the short-form spanish inquisition with a st chrisobal medal purchased in a Bushwick pawn :wha?:

but to your question, i do - scored a v.1 (overpaid, really, considering how close it was to v.2 release :cry: ) - but sadly, it was post-Grime daze :hug:

from comments on here, i have reason to believe lg does too (a v2) or he had access to one but really :idk: about that one....

i love mine, only having momentary sadz when i realize i could be gettin' even more outta a v2...astounding clean bellz imo with more high freq zing than the moogerfooger or RR.

:snax: :snax: :snax:

that's a v1, btw

v2 straight outta Berlin here for those who want to compare: https://reverb.com/item/29907224-xr1-e- ... oscillator

just got a good deal on a Pladask Feber. Have and love my Fairfield RR but have always loved the sounds and idea of the Feber. Was planning on comparing and selling the one i liked least.

So far I haven't had that much time with the Feber but it definitely seems to have a lot more range to the sound sit can do. I really like the band control and how it can highlight different parts of the signal.
I think I like the core sound of the RR more? But really enjoy the harmonic trem/vibey settings on the Feber and how the s/h modulation works with those settings.

Anyway....I am having fun!
