Love the size, color and features - seems great! This little guy would be great for me to bring along on my hikes and also on my commute to work. I think I'll join in on the crowdfunding on this.

SO impressive France seems to be having a Belle Époque of hardware design

[@AABattery]

Good stuff! The display is a plus and the touchstrip is a genius alternative to an encoder! Looking forward!

[@benjaminnourri]

Génial j’en veux un

[@sodiumlights]

Looks great. Circut board 💚

[@axs203]

That green is different! I quite like the design of this. Compact. It's good it has a battery and USB C!

[@synthanatomy]

and has a great feature set for its size :)

[@plasmaforce11]

Hope they can expand from this version. Nice tool

[@lummsmusik3219]

Thanks to Tom for making all these interesting videos at Synthfest. The synth nerds need GAS fodder 😉

[@bonaventura_AKA_ben]

Pleasantly surprised that 249 usd is current price on their blog. Let’s hope they can meet that price point.

This is very well conceived, within its limitations. Why it is so desirable to have it so small, I can't explain. Accepting that choice, this looks to be really good - so far, at least.

[@diederikschip6190]

Does it respond to external midi in data like cc control? Is there a midi-in cable connection or via midi-usb host?

[@synthanatomy]

it has MIDI in/out connection. Not sure about MIDI CC

[@WeeNoiseMakers]

You can control all the parameters of the internal synths engines with MIDI CC

Bei dem Display muss ne Lupe in der Packung dabei sein 😉

[@lNo0n3]

Das display ist nur für Settings, laut der Aussagen im Discord kann man es sogar Blind recht gut bedienen.

[@LimitationCreation]

Built on battery?

[@synthanatomy]

you can use the built-in battery or via USB-C to power it 😊

[@danielbluez]

Will you sell it from europe? Best,

[@synthanatomy]

You can pre-order it in the CrowdSupply campaign and it ships worldwide from France :)

A sub Roland Boutique format. No thank you.
