Picked-up one of these (replacement panel), for when I eventually find an irresistible deal on a DPO.
Is that so that, whatever color your deal comes in, you can replace it with black? I mean I get it, but I've also almost completely given up.

Ordered a jroo Loop. It'll go where my 4MS Mini PEG has been. I've never been quite satisfied with live looping in the DAW, and this one operates a lot like Tyme Sefari and a little like Phonogene, without being as lo-fi as either (unless you crank the rate way down on purpose).

I like this... seemingly very simple but thoughtful cv controls in just 8hp. :help:

I still need to fire up xpo for the first time, but the wheels are turning, thinking of what fun this could be.

That was directed @WatchTheGuitar, who was notoriously r.e.s.i.s.t.a.n.t to complying with the inevitable. :wink:

Yes. A number of their older modules are only available in silver, unless you buy the whole "shared system" which comes in black&gold. The panel I showed was made by Grayscale, who ceased producing them a few years ago when he started making his own line, so they are difficult to find.

Plus, with a few exceptions, I don't care for the (to me, confusing) cryptic fonts/art work of the MN stuff. I like/need as much visual continuity as possible (being profoundly dyslexic, and then a life altering TBI) with the panel colour and/or the knob style and sizes , so I've modded my Make Noise and Mutable Instruments panels to suit that 'functional' preference. It's like tricking-out a car. Which I used to do.

Oooo, that's interesting. Particularly in just 8hp, and the length of the recordings! :tu: I've been toying with picking-up a 4MS Mini PEG (eventually), what didn't work for you with it, or are you keeping it, but just relocating?

I just turned out not to like it as much as I thought I would. I have found myself using it just as a basic syncable LFO and I have plenty of those already.

That seems right up my alley.

It's almost as if this panel was meant to be. Perfect 84hp fit!

Payday and I’ve just won one of these cheap off eBay. I didn’t realise it could actually be fed up to 4 separate v/oct values and let you build the chord that way, thought it was just set chords so immediately made it more attractive.
