Was a preorder, and received one from the first batch at the store I bought from, seems to have been many months now. Its such a fine instrument. Those two filters just kill it. It also has the pitch to cv which tracks very well so you can plug your guitar into it and run your signal through its oscillators etc. Really nice.

Here's a pic of the mini next to a ms10 for to show how small it is. the keys don't feel small and seem pretty responsive. the noise everyone talks about IS there, in a setting that you would never use in actual use. if anything it adds to the nasty filter's charm's.

agreed

it is a tiny bit noisy and you can hear it in context with longer sustain/ envelope settings
but who the fuck cares i use it to play music not to knit pick over silly things

nice eyes, is good.

you should check out the eowave lo-fi ribbon synth. an 8-bit digital oscillator. has usb, cv/gate, midi, and uses an online editor to set the parameters you want to use. its alot of fun and sounds, well, lo-fi in the best .

I haven't paid any attention to the success of the ms20 mini, but i think they knocked it out of the park at a very fair price. assuming it does well, to me it doesn't make any sense to make a ms10 mini, while a ms50 would be :!!!: :!!!: :!!!: :!!!: it would also be alot more expensive. seems the sq-10 is the logical choice.....and if they're both a success....the ms50 :excellent:

for me, i want a smaller sq-10 to go with my mini20 cause my vintage sq-10 and ms10 make the mini look funny...i know that's got nothing to do with anything....but still. oh, and the different patch cables sizes....

At the risk of derailing the thread :whateva: I've been thinking about getting one but then I think. Maybe i should be the 300 dollars i would spend on that in a jar and start saving for a persephone. I don't know why. I just have an overwhelming compulsion to have one. I'm for seriously Whelming over.

If it were up to me i'd have both, so I do. The eowave is very versatile, but the persephone.....you know....its pretty pretty great. That jar won't mind staying put for awhile longer. And...you know...the persephone. :love:
