Unfortunatly mate, it was redesigned in a way that is unusable with the original hardware.
Unless miracles happen, you got a useless piece of junk.
Furrtek never sent mine. I asked for a refund, no news.

Hi Benn,
Thanks for all your efforts. Very much appreciated.

Since waveforms have been delicately putted in different files and folders, could we imagine doing alternate versions with different synth?
I wrote a mail to furrtek to let him know about this thread.

Hi all,
Since searching for André Duracell here leads to nothing, I thought it might be good to let you know about him.
Andrew Dymond aka André Diamant later known as André Duracell is/was a english-born french amazing one-man chip-tune drum-trigger genius.
He played drum triggered to north lead synth: bass on bassdrum and lead to snare, and toms, allowing him to play with tempo and groove of the tunes he was playing.
He was mainly interested in old video games soundtracks. He was also heavily influenced by Lightning Bolt (the band) and avoided stages to play directly in front of the public like them. His shows used to be very loud.
A few years later, he lost hearing and stopped music.
He never released anything. What's left of his work are a few youtube videos.

Nope dude, I totally agree. I had long mail chat with him today. Offered him help (I know a few Napoleon dynamite dance moves that could cheer him up), said he still had supporters. Begged him to continue developpement. We all know that nobody will continue his work.

I agree.

The only thing that pissed me off was when he said he sent me the product when he didn't. I check my mailbox every morning, praising I would find it. Then I felt like a fool.
I'm still waiting a kitsch-bent order from January, I received an empty order from Thursday Customs, ordered a GB303, ordered a 200$ gameboy to 8bit aesthetic and he didn't answered to any of my mails since he got paid one month ago. I'm waiting for my 8bit fool king crown but I fear It will be lost in shipping as well.

I wish he would continue working on it. I don't care if I have to wait, even if I have to pay more since it worth more.
I firmly encourage him to let someone else take care of building, and maybe selling his products for him, so he could concentrate on the few bugs.
The final product will be amazing. But no more lies and no more silence.

"So what? Its not a customers fault, no matter how annoying he is, if he cuts the line and the seller lets him."

Dude... imagine if everyone was acting like grandmas in stores. (SBS, I took this sentence on a global level, I'm definitely not refering to you)

It's always better to start learning something with an idea of what you want to make of it.

You WERE the most impatient of us all. Otherwise you won't had received someone else's box.
No hard feeling either, I just thought that 1 month was far too quick to be mad at a young independant developer that was interested in such a niche community. And I'm still thinking it, but now is the time.
I'm already harassing people to get their job done in my work and it pisses me off. I don't want to replicate it on my free time, that's all.

GIVE ME BACK MY GB-303, SBS !!!

Seriously, I KNEW you had received yours. Fuck this.
That's some of the most stupid paradoxes in this world: the ruddest (no offense SBS) and most impatient get served first. Like, OOT, the most paid one has the best working conditions.
I'm not even sure I want it anymore. Seams really buggy, almost impossible to use if you want to make a proper song. And now there's like no chance to get an update, ever.
I asked Furrtek if he wanted to refund us, and as usual, no answer. At the same time, he keeps updating his twitter status like crazy.

In business, there's a really thin line between being a lazy ass and stealing.

Disappointing to say the least. He was very active until he sent the first 10 very buggy almost unusable surely not upgradable betas. Then he got fed up building it, stopped answering emails... It wouldn't be so frustrating if, at the same time, he was not so active on Twitter, YouTube and live streaming on Twitch.

Hi Duality,
Little advise: just update your first post by writing what's new, do bump by posting new message "new stuff".

I'm living next to Furrtek. Package should arrive 2 days after sending it. So I guess he still didn't built all the cartridges.
