Interesting concept but not sure if I want to bend over every time I want to patch and twist. Expensive too.
Might work for live shows though.

I like the dwarf thingy the most, the cables are a real challenge to access those knobs :o
on stage you can't really use it - and most venues don't give analogue sounds justice anyway
in the studio you have Scope, or even VSTHost for a weird routing

but for 1200 bucks I'd buy 2 iPads and 2 Docks ...
and then would show them more than a couple of limits of their limitless 'possibilities'
imo it's as smart as selling a fridge to an eskimo :D

cheers, Tom

It was bound to happen sooner or later, since the growing eurorack community was bound to hit the massive guitar market!

It is damn pricey, even for eurorack!

I think that's just silly! The price is stiff.

I sold this, the ASM-1 modular DIY synth for $500 almost completely built...

I think the only thing the modular community will get out of it is modules of a 1,000 variations on the tube screamer and some very authentic copies of the russian muff pi. The original Sovtek one, dammit! And maybe also a couple V2 Ram's head ones.
