Is not yet widely available, but I am hoping for the Supreme court to strike down the tariffs so it will be an easier buy.

I had sorta sworn off hardware effects, but this sounds amazing and I love the workflow. Not cheap at 560 Euros, but that's probably less than I would have guessed after watching the videos. Definitely on my watch list for early 2026.

I'm really looking forward to trying Warp out. A friend of mine is SOMA's US distributor and he says he's going to bring one to the next LA Synth Club meetup. Reminds me of the DSI Evolver of the old Adrenalinn but with CV inputs!

The cv inputs are key. LFOs from Euro rack or Live can make is unique.

Looks like it’s available now: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/soma-warp.html

Plenty on YouTube. I feel like if I wait for this I could get a mint green one like my Cosmos, then all my SOMA stuff would be green.

Recorded a little video last night. Hard to tell what Warp is doing here, as the drums are being further processed by the modular.



Here I was using Warp with the Pump algo, which sounds like a hifi version of an Alesis 3630.
I’ll do something with the more creative algos tonight. The reverbs algos love modulation!

Two minor annoyances.
It doesn’t remember which algo was last active after power cycle.
There is a delay when changing algos. So you press a button, wait maybe 500ms, then the sound changes.
It’s also a little annoying that you can’t just directly select an algo, you have to increment through them.

comparison shot- really debated if it was worth it to upgrade, but I can use the LFOs on my Spectravox and really who doesn't love more LFOs :tu:
