Dang, these look sick.
For $60 too, holy shit.
I'll have to keep an eye on their website for when things aren't backordered.

Got the PO12. Excited about getting the others. Easy to pick up and the features they crammed in is impressive.

PO-16 incoming-it's what to do while waiting on Ct5 and uselessly oscillating b/w nearly buying Judder/nearly buying Microgranny.

I just might-gotta bust my demo cherry some time- would just be iphone or Flip some such jawn, or I'll never do the deed-maybe borrow my friend's Zoom Q2-HD....

I used to work for Cheap Monday. This is weird.

I usually always have my backpack with me wherever I go, so I bring my Volca Beats. I don't need this, but it is pretty fucking cool and impressive sounding.

My friend just got all three in the mail after a ton of delays. He preordered them. All the accessories he got with them are still on backorder or something. He loves them but I haven't been over there to play with them yet.

Yeah, I don't see why people kept ordering after they told everyone they were backed up....seems like the wait would be painful. I just went to my GC and they had oodles of em. The cases just came out I believe. Tell your friend to hold on. They'll be making fun songs in no time.

i got a rhythm being delivered to me today. pretty stoked about it!

the sub and factory sound really awesome, the thing that stops me from wanting them is that they are all stuck in C major, and u need to use the FX to get sharps or flats. kinda janky unless u wanna always play is C major / A minor..

I had all three to try out. Great sounds, a lot of features (the effects on the drum machine are fantastic) and nice size.
I do not like the way i have to deal with the user interface. Just not my way of thinking. So i won't get any of these for myself.
