Well, it's got a flanger lit up by default so I'm all over this for DJ'ing.

for 650$ looks like a sweet deal.. the user interface seems quite nice ... but the sound is VA which I got tons of already..
only analog instruments from now on..

Looks fun.

Suit #2: No, sir, he says he does this sort of thing for fun.

Those VA stuff is like sex with condoms. Totally boring compared to the real thing. I'm going for the new stuff by MFB of Doepfer...

even from the little it was touched in the demo video at the top of the thread the filter sounds weak. Sad that after all these years they couldn't have some up with something a little more ground breaking.

This looks like a HUGE step forward for Roland. At the very least, they've built an original looking synth that so far is the best new thing from Messe. Hat's off to the Roland designers behind this one!

NOW BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL TB-303 BEFORE I JUMP OUT THE WINDOW!!!
