I've only had a couple of Make Noise pieces and they've never been that appealing to me. However, the Mimeophon seems like the least esoteric module they've made to me. There's a couple of deeper functions but for the most part the controls seem straightforward.
And the idea of skewed, halo'd, filtered, warbly, ping-pong delay is pretty enticing.

Haha. I'm currently planning on getting a chronoblob but the mimeophon is in the corner of my eye going "hey look over here"

Exactly! But chrono does do everything I want it to do. And should be perfect. But... Tempting things?

Yo wtf I take a break from the forum and come back to people saying they don’t like MN? Best company in euro imo. If you wonder why I say that, spend 30 minutes browsing their YouTube channel. They’ve done more for more for euro than any other company and they must be applauded for that. If you had a Maths or DPO and didn’t like it that’s a you problem!
Or you know, maybe opinions are like assholes and everyone’s got a smelly one

sniff. my. OPINION.
oh. yeah. no. my dislike for them is no way at all rooted in the company at all. they seem nice as butts, and like you say, have done a TON for Euro Growth.
i just don't click with their loot. a smelly anus ME problem. not a Butters And Waffles Syrup Scented THEM problem.

I know I just wanted to stir the pot a bit! Also my euro setup is a (self-assembled) Shared System Plus. I got sick of researching and arranging and modular gridding, so that made the most sense to me to cut out the muss and fuss and just have a solid-assed patchable synth!

Zone - I love this feature which can get very creative very quickly with cv control. From short repeats to phrases that come back a minute later. With well thought out CV control it can be very interesting.
Skew - having the ability to offset the left and right outputs is something I don't have on my other delay modules which I like a lot.
Gate Output - having a gate output derived from the rate control is useful.
Rate - cv control over the rate combined with the zone gets into interesting territory (I dig the micro rate and Doppler effects it can do)
Halo - the smear / reverb is beautiful on this thing and again... cv controllable.
Color - this has a much greater creative affect than I thought and again.... cv controllable
Using all of these cv inputs with the Catalyst crossfader has been AMAZING...... especially on drums!
Oh man I kinda wish I hadn't asked
. Zone sounds amazing. Thanks for the writeup.

While the subject of Make Noise is up, I'm interested to hear experiences with Morphagene or any alternatives to it. I like its ability to save to a card, but I don't think that's totally necessary for me. I'm looking for a good live audio sampling/processing option.

Morphagene is fantastic but I’ve only had it for about a month. It takes whatever you feed into it and spits out magic!
