Indeed. Meant to add that option, but spaced on the pic link copy/paste. :wink:

Yay! super cool :party:

My 1st 2hp (size not company) module:

Mazzatron quad gate inverter as it's surprisingly difficult to invert a gate without something like this.
Anyway $50 shipped...

*also I happened to have 2hp to fill in 1 case.

Ordered 2 laptop tabletop stands (HA! HA! I DON'T EVEN OWN A LAPTOP) to put pedalboards and stuff on, some LED dampers and (kinky red!) velcro. Nice discount, and dodged the shipping fee 8)

So if the price of $599 is true for the BARP 2600 then yeah I'm getting one even though I'd sworn off getting another hardware mono synth.
Behringer kept us waiting for major news for a full 7 months, but now the 2600 (ARP 2600 Clone) is in production, price & availability is not known

Update: Behringer just revealed that the 2600 will cost $599 USD what is near a no-brainer deal for a 2600 clone.

No doubt they will sell a ton of those Barp 2600's. Now I just have to wait and work out where
the heck I'm going to get the money from.

Wow. I’ve been looking at this to compliment the zen delay.

I bought a slew of 90's/early 2k virtual analog synths: Nord Lead 2, Novation Supernova, WaldorfQ, Roland JD990 and Roland V-Synth. I'm a 90's enthusiast and wanted to make some 1990's dance tracks very authentically. All of them have been sold to different owners by now, but my experience showed me that the JD990 was really all that I needed. That one was the best-sounding synth by far and, alongside contemporary soft-synths like Avenger and Diva, is really all you would 'need' if you wanted to make great 90's style music. Everything else honestly felt underwhelming when they were actually thrown into the mix.

Waiting for the JD990 to appear in the Roland Cloud :)

Received Monday: German Maestro GMP 8.35 D headphones. It took only a few minutes to get used to closed-back cans again after being used to the semi-open HD 668Bs -- kind of like sticking your head in a box at first. But the sound is great, I can hear a bit more detail with them, they're comfortable, and they have the isolation I was looking for :tu:

Received today: CVilization. Awesome, wrote about it in the appropriate thread. :tu:

Also today: DAFM Synth w/ YM2612 chip. Um. It powered on for a few seconds, nice crisp OLED screen... and then went dark forever. The USB power cable I was using was warm to the touch. Switching to another cable and another charger didn't help. Sigh. I wrote to ask for a refund (rather than a replacement, since I have second thoughts about adding another synth anyway).

Looks hella good! But: I'm going to wait & see if they come out with a 12-voice version.

I need to stop opening this thread, every time I take a look, I get jealous... :(
