NAMM 2018 : The thread

Namm 2018 : January 25/28

 

once again, it's that time of the year

 

Let's discuss

You know, I'm honestly just pretty sad I don't have likeminded friends to jam with, and no time anyhow.

Two posts? Just started today? No bickering, rumors, speculation or anything?

 

You are like little babies.

Yeah my GAS slapped the shit out of me last year and I'm kind of tuckered out from it, all I want now is new monitors and mixer.  Naturally I'm curious about Elektron, Korg, Teenage Engineering, and Bastl but I kind of hope I forget about NAMM by the time the 25th rolls around.

Same. I want to just chuck some shit in my backpack and hang out with someone making the bleeps and bloops.

 

Also I looking back on my posts in the GAS thread holds up the ugly mirror to me. I bought some huge stuff last year and now it is time to make it sing.

just hoping for op-z news honestly

I'm trying not to be interested, I have everything I could ever want, it would be terribly greedy to want more. I am a whore though, a dirty little whore...etc

I have been really good past few years, only getting things I need in order to complete a mission and not getting caught up in starry eyed love affairs or hype. Apart from Matrixbrute, that was a lapse in common sense but i'm cool with it now.

I also have more than I need or use.. keeping a low radar for stuff this year hopefully

I've absolutely no room for any hardware shenanigans so I'm relatively safe from GAS when it comes to the yearly NAMM shows .... Unless there's some wild software being announced (any rumours ?)

sorry, no hope!

Minibrute 2 looks like a pretty nice synth for the cost. For a lot of people this would be a great option, seems plenty diverse in its range of sounds and live manipulation capabilities.

 

Arturia also mentioned something more coming out tomorrow, hinting 'save the best for last' or something so...?

 

nice one !

 

edit : here's a new eurorack complex analog oscillator by hexinverter

but...analog synths are overrated, remember?

are analog synths still L-Event ?

even if it's an analog synth with dreadlocks ?

a mnm with poly for all tracks? can't call it a monomachine if it's poly. in digitakt form factor?

but it wouldnt have any knobs not keys cause their other products have those already and that'd make their other products obsolete, so we can expect a digital theremin, poly of course

Patiently waiting for Superbooth 2018... and Zebra 3! An updated Zebra 2, with the same insane audio lushness as Repro, would be my favorite synth ever. Can't wait.

Oooh is that gonna be at NAMM ?! Stretched my wallet in getting HZ Zebra back in the day so will get the wonderful thing for free when it's released ...

I 'pre-ordered' it back in Jan '15 (i.e. bought Z2 & HZ together with the promise Z3 would be free) so I can definitely wait 4 months
