PULL THE OTHER ONE GUV'NAH.

Well I definitely wouldn't want a whole synth built of the things, but a couple here or there to add to an existing system seems a little more plausible to me. For instance, I could see myself using the looping ADSR (which has CV over every stage and only costs $150), the attenuverters and the 4 channel mixer (which are both pretty simple but are only $75).

A buck-fifty for that keyboard is intriguing...

jia. not saying they don't look neat, i just. man. i mean. i do kinda want to play out more, and my last band showed me that less. stuff. to carry. is GOOD.
a synth rack, mixer, mebbe a pedal or two. PLENTY.
..... but i HATE the aesthetics of the Hungry Hobo Bots.

Yo having that keyboard unit elevated on a stand live to CV control a pedal or few on your board would be sick. I mean just a small and affordable quantized keyboard to control anything is very welcome.

holy butts i'm excited about the Hemmie Suite uo_Cs.
want to spend a few days with the interface, make sure i get stuck in deliciously, but i can totes see replacing my Branches with a second uo_C. keeping one side dedicated to that and have the other side open for THINGS.
it really looks like a bigger, easier to use Disting.
EXCITEMENT PANTS. I HAVE.

Am I the only one that thinks this looks terrible? Who is this for? People that don't actually have eurorack, but have a messy table of standalone synths and pedals maybe?
For pedalboards, this is obviously useless, and if you already have a modular system, why take all the great things about modular (standard case mounting, power, etc) and replace them with all the worst things about pedals?
Hard nope from me.

I disagree about them being useless on pedalboards. I can definitely see a few of them making their way onto boards with pedals that accept CV, like the sequencer, the keyboard, the ADSR, and the LFO. Other than the sequencer, I don't think there's anything similar that is available on the market and if you have a pedal that accepts CV, wouldn't you want an LFO or ADSR to go with it?
Also, their main target as per their website is people looking to get into modular, but don't have the upfront cash to drop on a case and power supply.
And again, as someone with modular, I can see some of these being useful to fill some gaps in my system for a low price. Especially since my case is currently full and I have no real interest in buying another one. Although, I guess my setup at this point is mostly semi-modular synths and a lot less straight modular so I guess I fit in better with the messy desk crowd

I an entire mk1 Z8000 Tiptop sequencer. V. fun and nice to send multiple clocks to multiple interconnecting sequencers. Have rec'd mega-results for my cartoon dance party style beats as well as results for more noisome bangarang patches.

bobs AND vagine!
i've always wanted one of those bad boys. just afraid that what makes Trigger Riot awesomeness no good for me (no screen, no current stste indications) would kill the Zeek Seque for my love times.
WHERE ARE THE DANCE PARTIES.
oooo! also, hitting today is the rest of the 2hp drums (the Kick is FUN, hope the other's are as awesome) and another Mix, should be Saturday that my uo_Cs hit, and Erukus thinks my TSNM, Burst, Sampling Modulator with blue LEDs that i'll swap him my current one for, 2hp version of the Quadra Expander and Muxslicer will ship out early next week, Cursus should hit Monday.
REBUILD.

I have been good. I've avoided buying modular shit I don't need for a few months now. Feels good. Actually became productive in music making after a while and am finishing this album up.
But it calls me.
