So—got an email saying my Lyra will be ready in 2 weeks.
I planned to cancel since I went ahead and started Eurorack.
Does anyone here want my spot before I cancel??

Also I've been having heaps of fun with the banana gears lately, since the JAMS thread has kinda died off after comesect quit youtube and Nora went on an unplanned hiatus I'll chuck these links here - lots of tetrax, double knot, bugbrand, mengqi, you know the drill.

No problemo, I shouldn't buy one anyway and definitely can't afford an 8.

It was neither elaborate nor a joke. I just wanted you to talk about weird shit.

Just managed to snag a lower backing tier for the Quadrantid Swarm. Looks like I'll be passing on my Lyra-8 pre-order as well

Wow, so my Lyra-8 pre-order came up way sooner than expected! I definitely cannot afford it given my recent acquisitions and the whole holiday season.
Anyone want to take my place? PM me

Yet to hear any Lyra 8 that's blown my socks off but not actively looking. Although there was one clip of someone playing one with their easel and the pair seemed to go together quite nicely.

I'm weird with that one...I appreciate it's something different. I'd be a hypocrite to say, "I feel like you can get those sounds from other things" because that same sentiment applies to A LOT of my other gear

. I don't know what it is? The end result (the sounds) are cool. I'm just not sure about the application.
Sort of reminds me of this Coffee and Riffs (probably my favorite one). Processing saxophone through pedals.

Just want to say the dudes at SOMA are good people. Nothing but a pleasure to communicate with. I remember getting my LYRA and one of dudes may or may not have asked if I was interested in the pipe. I politely declined.
It reminds me of the outdated microscopes we used in middle school so it could be triggering bad memories of when it finally dawned on me science was not my strong suite
