Key words being *for me*. But fuck him for having an opinion, right? Visit gearslutz for a healthy dose of ignorance.

I agree. These things are ugly as sin and the touch pad is pretty dumb. D-beam kind of dumb.

I should note those are not my words. The text was taken from Create Digital Music.

Also, if anyone in the Midwest wants to hear these live before almost everybody else, come to Milwaukee next weekend where there will be a full AIRA debut. The show is for the third anniversary of MELT and it's free. Is there a better place to celebrate? No.

My opinion - TB-03: box of presets (so far). The whole lot for ~$1600 is absolutely not worth a Rebirth-in-a-box type line. COSM isn't dead.

Prices were announced:

"SYSTEM-1 is really a synth/keyboard, not a modular (despite the name). It’s a new synth, but it’s also a controller for computer software modeling vintage Roland synths, and you can load those models onto the keyboard. Because you can load those models from software onto hardware, Roland dubs it “Plug-Out Synthesizer.” Price: US$599 – ish.

TR-8 Rhythm Performer. “Full reproduction” of both the 808 and 909, promising not just the sounds but details in behavior (like what happens when you have multiple instruments in accented steps). Price: US$499 – ish.

TB-3 Touch Bassline. Think a component-modeled 303 with a touch pad and new step sequencer. Price: US$299 – ish.

VT-3 Voice Transformer. It’s probably gotten the least attention, but this could be a big seller at this price. Multiple effects in one box: vocoder (a la VP-330), glitch, lo-fi, robot, auto-pitch, and voice-controlled synths. Price: US$199 – ish."

Topic: Angled DMG data cables? (2 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)

This is undoubtedly a first-world problem, but the way a sync/data DMG cable sticks out of the side drives my OCD into a fit. Has anyone thought of/tried building a cable that forces the cable up the side of a DMG instead of directly to the right?

...

I can't believe I actually just posted this.

Also, you just compared gluten free breads to bioplastic ICs without a hint of irony. What is the matter with you?

Re: Bioplastic Based IC chips (27 replies, posted in General Discussion)

I'm with you on this, but I think it's probably more economical/realistic to start small.

Solar-powered DMG perhaps?
