My first thought was that it looks like a Mood but more controllable.
Then I realized the looper doesn't seem to do anything weird and it looks like pretty straightforward reverb.
I guess the interesting thing is the 11 granular effects and I'll be curious how they sound.
Interesting. I just sold my Count to Five and was thinking about buying a Blooper. But this one looks even better. But the sound is pretty clean and neat compared to other glitch pedals. Not the lofi sound but a lot more polished. Maybe too polished?? But maybe it is just that video. I would like to see more videos

$395 street ($295 for early backers) ---It looks promising, too bad about the name.

Backed! I've been wanting to upgrade my Black and White Video Scope and I wasn't really intrigued by the ETC.

Yep, I'm in. C&G stuff is always on the pricey side, it's too bad it's so dang cool.

Yeah I don't think I would have been as interested at the full $395, but I am down with the early backer price. The price and the lack of a composite video output was what prevented me from buying the ETC.

I’ve never really got into visual stuff, but that looks cool AF.

I found the big issue with getting a video setup isn't the synth part, its what projects it. A projector that can make a big image over your band that is also portable and can be setup DIY (not permanently installed in the venue) ends up costing $1000+ real fast.

As the resident iOS musician in ILF I have to mention the rather monstrous release that was unleashed without warning yesterday. Beepstreet (who made probably the best sounding synth on iOS Zeeon) released a normalized Modular Synthesizer with a Groovebox/Sequencer that's taken straight out of the Octatrak, down to the parameter locks (ON A MODULAR) and A/B morphing scenes. I was going to post about it yesterday but lost the entire end half of my day to it. There's so much to do holy shit.

I've been wanting their L5 Preamp build for years, but it's not something a beginner like me can build so I've never jumped on it. :cry:
