My nominee for deepest gear nerd reference of the month. Noice. Primetimes are totally badass.

I was looking into purchasing one a few weeks ago, but ultimately opted against it. I've already started to venture into vintage gear and idk how much is too much.
Funnily enough, I contacted
these guys to see if they had any Primetimes a few months ago (while they were preparing my Mono/Poly). They didn't at the time, but then a few weeks later messaged me saying they had TWO in stock that were being serviced, but I couldn't swing it at the time.

I've seen some on eBay in the $1200-1500 range (storage locker / estate sale finds). I was a bit tempted to make an offer for one, but I feared if they had issues, it'd be really pricey to get them serviced.
SoundToys had their plugin deeply discounted recently, so I downloaded it, but I haven't had a chance to use it yet.

Austin, the founder of Lightfoot Labs, started doing design work for Malekko a while ago (2012...2014?), and it looks like together they'll be launching a V4 of the Goatkeeper.

Wish there was a non modular demo but it does sound rad and it’s way smaller! I dig it!

It's been like 3 years since he said he was doing this, I thought it would never happen.

I miss my Goatkeeper.

Is this for real? Finally I can get a Goatkeeper without sacrificing half of the space on my board? I don't want to believe it until I see it on sale (and until I see a guitar or bass demo)

Absolutely horrible demo, but this is just the best news.

Looks like it doesn't have the the user definable waveforms which was 90% of the appeal for me. If you're excited for a sequenced tremolo, the Alexander Colour Theory does a fine job.
Still, cool to see them bring back the concept.

Yeah, I wonder what the main differences are or how you even set the tempo. It has the random mode, which is pretty much all I care about, though (that and the repeater style waveform). Malekko pedals seem to all be under 200, so hopefully this follows suit.

The Attack Decay had the Lil Buddy Expander. For those without an external clock device already, I would imagine that will be in play again.

Oh yeah, thanks. External tap it is, by the looks of it! That's a shame.

It will still be like 1/3rd the size of the original one.
Would be neat if they did the 'hold switch to enter TT mode' thing though.

Yeah, I was thinking they could have thrown in a second switch for TT, but actually I'm not a fan of small enclosures with more than one switch, so the hold to TT would have been the perfect solution.

I was thinking second switch too, I don't mind cramped switches. I am good on my toes, dammit
