mine will be posted out in the next couple of business days
if the customs is around what i expect it to be, it was actually cheaper going this route, than if id got it from one of the uk stockists.

Today, I was holding back asking them if there was date on Bruxa dispatches. I have my rack mapped out for it but I’m making hard choices on module selection, while trying not to buy a 3rd rack (though it would be the most fun option).vurt wrote: Wed Sep 18, 2024 7:53 pmeven if it goes to the maximum, its not too much over what i would have paid either tbh. which given the prices they are going for on ebay, im more than happy with.elxsound wrote: Wed Sep 18, 2024 7:50 pmCongrats!

Nice one! I had an x-touch but ended up selling it off to regain space, but it was easy to work with.gaf_thit wrote: Wed Sep 18, 2024 7:37 pm Planning to buy a Behringer X-Touch and an Akai MPD226 in an attempt to make a more hands-on feeling for playing ITB

Direct from Make Noise. It seems they didn't sell out of their in-person event stock.Shabdahbriah wrote: Thu Sep 19, 2024 1:48 amGlad that worked out for you two... but how?

The first response took a while, but they had some available. Vurt ordered one from them too.
*today I read the MW thread and that's a nightmare. I really feel bad for those that got refunded so late.

Ah... yes. The "in-person" event, stock. Cool for you.

They might have more in case anyone is interested.
I was seeing that people were comparing SNs on MW to get an idea of how many they made.
Mine is 667.

The TEO-5 arrived yesterday. First, playing the presets is glorious, they mostly sound great/classic/timeless. Needed to calibrate the wheels because the pitch bend went up suddenly. Also calibrated the oscellators, all good, works as it should. Then I decided to make a patch and that's were things took a turn. The pedal input has a constant add up. From the factory it is set to LP full and I couldn't understand why the filter cutoff was not cutting- it seemed to not work on the presets. After I switched the pedal to CC11 the filter knob worked fine but I found adding expression to any mod matrix was uncontrollable.
So I made a support ticket with Oberheim and will wait to see what they say.

i was kinda surprised they did tbh, as people were ringing round all kinds of places in the usa, getting nowhere. i didnt even think about trying any usa vendors, as id expected them all to be gone! especially as they were hitting over 2k (asking price) on ebay
id given up, until elxsound told me hed been lucky with make noise direct

Apparently some users who orders from animato audio were refunded.
I’m always hesitant to post there, but will mention it.
Might ruin that new Reverb posting for QMMG at $9,999
