Feel like you could probably get a Rubberneck and maybe a used Microbrute for around $300.

Re: The darkest of shopping days: BF/CM 2018 edt.
I've got a Minilogue that's pretty fun, so no need for a Microbrute. Have been watching Rubbernecks for a while, but the Zoom MS70 CDR has been a good delay/reverb on the desktop for a while. But I would never use it in my bass rig. The Rubberneck, I might. But the DE7 sure does love fuzz/distortion at high volumes...not sure I want to pull it off the board yet.odontophobia wrote:

Several dealers in the US are doing a discount (10-12% off) on Elektron products through Friday. (applies to Heat MKII, Digitone, Digitakt, etc.)

https://vintageking.com/sale/monthly-sp ... on-on-sale
You can also visit Juno, which often has the best prices, even after shipping is included. Warranty/return shipping becomes a concern, though, unless you've already researched this part.

Not just the US. The Elektron deal appears to be on at MoogAudio in Canada as wellechorec wrote:Several dealers in the US are doing a discount (10-12% off) on Elektron products through Friday. (applies to Heat MKII, Digitone, Digitakt, etc.)

I know people piss on ProAudioStar, but I haven’t had any problems with them - or at least the problems I’ve had have been due to FedEx fuckups and not PAS. I got my Microbrute from them on BF 2016 for well under $200 and looks like they are doing something similar this year -

And I’d sell one of my Rubbernecks for a clue + cash

That's a bit like coming to an assault trial as a character witness for the defense.doommeow wrote:I know people piss on ProAudioStar, but I haven’t had any problems with them.
The defendant never hurt me, so he couldn't have hurt these 30 other people who documented their assaults.
---PAS is as shitty as it gets, when it comes to customer service, dishonesty, and total lack of professional integrity.

I'm not sure if T. Rex is planning to discontinue these, or if they've sold enough units to recoup their development costs, but these have been heavily discounted. If you call in, you can get an additional 17% off today. (from as high as $899 originally to $546)

You likely won't be able to get any further discounting, but Sweetwater has these on 48-month plans (including the Eurorack version).

I'd be getting a pile of the proprietary tapes if so.

Do it. I don’t think it’s possible to get another delay nearly so fun for the price.

Pulled the trigger last night even though I also got an SDD-3000 and Obscura in the last few weeks. I’ve gone nuts with delays recently. It will be my first analog delay since the Behringer VD400 I had several years ago.Gone Fission wrote:Use code 5more for $95.plaidbeer wrote:https://www.proaudiostar.com/dod-rubberneck-analog-delay-with-tap-tempo.html

I had to get one, even though I most certainly don't need it.
$94 for 1.5s of actual analog, yeah, can't exactly say no.
