I suppose I can say that I've got one now that it's leaked.
It's good. Really good. Much deeper than it appears, you just have to do some tricks (much like the other Elektrons). I'll save the details for the video dump tomorrow, but I'm gonna defend this to the death, because the haters are wrong.
It's actually the reason why I also bought the Model:Samples.

Ha, that elektronauts thread is ridiculous. Someone guessed it, but people have guessed every single possibility so that doesn't mean anything..

It's not 3 new things, they're just giving away 3 machines (not sure if it'll be the new one though) at the launch.

So Elektron are releasing something this week. Speculation is rife on elektronauts but conjecture is converging around it being a Models format digital drum machine.. @modey what inner circle gossip do you have?
-
It's got sequencers and an arpeggiator. Not quite a TR/Elektron style sequencer, but you can definitely make auto-playing patterns with it. That said, it's basically temporary pattern storage rather than something where you can store hundreds of patterns.

I'm starting to miss having a fkn OP-1, argh. I sold it two years ago for around half the price of what they are now
-
Yeah I need to do that as well. I've been going through old recordings and cleaning them up a bit though, which is giving me a reason to release that stuff. It's good to hear old things from a different perspective.
-
Yeah that's why I'm holding off for a while. I have a feeling that with a synth that deep, even with its extended interface compared to its predecessor, I'd probably end up relying on presets and/or my own patches wouldn't be very complex.

fucking hell
"lol it's only $3 in components anyone could make it" isn't the kind of argument I thought I'd see here

I think my modular experiments are coming to an end. I decided at some point last year that I should either keep expanding in order to be able to make full tracks in a modular environment, or downsize to maintain a concise, single voice and/or effects/filter rack. I decided on the second option. It's about half the size of what it was at its peak and now I'm considering downsizing even more, maybe even to just my Intellijel palette case. Dealing with MIDI to CV has been the bane of my existence the whole time as well, and I'm getting a bit sick of it tbh.
I think I'm just generally more inspired by the potential to exploit fixed architecture synths.
(I still want the Wavestate, but I've cooled off a little)

As ridiculous as Robin's requests were, at the end of the day it was a bit of a dick move of Behringer to just go ahead with an exact clone of the Devilfish mod.
I'm kinda done with this Behringer clone stuff now. I'm not against anyone buying them, but I personally won't be buying any, even after having my eye on the Neutron and/or Wasp for a little while.

What a surprise, now they're ripping off the Devilfish mod..

Nava circuit was a rip off too
Well, it's not an exact copy of the 909 PCB. I can't remember where I saw it, but one of the Behringer clones is a direct copy of another PCB that is still on the market.
-
I guess the main reason is that Roland didn't make an analog and/or full size reissue. Given that Behringer ripped off another circuit design for the 303 clone (I think?) I wouldn't be surprised if they ripped off the Nava circuit.

hooray?

If you guys were to take some pills for your gassyness, do you think you'd be able to make consistently good albums with just a few pieces of gear?
I've made some of my (imo) best stuff using cheap (or free) gear/software. I buy synths because they're fun to mess around with.

Does anybody else find themselves growing a bit bored with all these Behringer announcements?
Yep.

Looking at some fancier Epiphone LP's and they're about 70% of the cheaper Gibsons. Is there a big difference?
Unsolicited advice: don't buy a new one. Big brand guitars (ie. Gibson and Fender) are overpriced for what they are, and have been for decades.
For the price, you'd probably get more out of a nice condition (or even something a bit worn with character) second hand Gibson from the 90s or earlier, than whatever they're pumping out these days.
Back to your original question though: I've played a few Epiphones and they're great. I have a $150 super entry level "LP Special" that I use as my doom metal guitar, it sounds awesome and is nice to play.

Is it really that hard to design basic generic modules rather than ripping off Roland ones though?
I thought the remakes were kinda cute at first but it's starting to get ridiculous.

I agree but to me part of that sound is the aliasing and pitching samples down until they sound like Satan's trash compactor.
Very true. I have the SY22 for that though
I'm really keen on this because it sounds legitimately lush and very much in line with what I've been getting into lately. I'll give it a few months of cooling off time before I go selling something and potentially regretting it though, haha.

Yeah honestly thats a main reason why I want it. That late-80s to mid-90s rompler sound really does it for me, and it looks much easier to edit than the original synths from around that time.
Does the Argon8 contain full length samples or just single cycle waves?
-
don't care, sounds great, I love Barker's stuff
edit: I don't hear anything pre-recorded in there? He's definitely building it up on the spot, I don't think it makes sense to completely design every sound from scratch if you've only got 10 minutes

I think that what most people don't realise is that an Elektron box that could do everything would just be super menu-divey and possibly downright hard to use. People have enough trouble with the OT, let alone something that contains more than that..
