Yup. As I said in the other thread, I definitely want one. Just cant afford one.

We try to keep prices low, but there is of course substantial cost involved (component cost, and also assembly in Germany), and compared to some other offerings, I don't think Queen Elmyra is particularly expensive. Hope you'll find one in the future, but of course all synths are luxury items, and I would never want someone to spend money on a Neutral Labs device if that meant they had to forego groceries or rent.

In any case, I'm also here to answer any questions anyone might have about the Queen.

Is there a way to save patches, or is it more of a “improvise every time” beast?

Sure. Everything can be saved, patches, sequences, config, what have you.

yeah it's a big price compared to the elmyra2 but there's a lot more here too, so many more patch points

wonder if diy will be available? or too difficult, causing many support requests?

im in, but im using my "red dragon film style tattoo of cthulu" funds.
had the money for a while, just can't find a tattooist i think is good enough

Not just that, it's also a much higher quality engine, not just an Elmyra 2 with more voices. And of course even more flexibility and effects.

Right, it would be too complex, with a lot of potential for error. And there's not much demand for DIY kits in that price range either.

If you're willing to pick up your Queen Elmyra here in beautiful Leipzig, Germany, I'll personally give you that tattoo for free! (Always wanted to tattoo somebody, how hard can it be?)

Technically, this will delay the delivery though. :p

But I guess there's a balance to be found.

vurt · Post by **vurt** » Wed Jun 10, 2026 9:24 pm

oh wait you mean my parcel

neutral-labs · Post by **neutral-labs** » Wed Jun 10, 2026 9:29 pm

It will delay the delivery of the delay, is what I'm saying.
