via this auction

"Moog sonic 6 in good condition. It works but not sure if it's 100% functional so I will sale for parts. It generates sounds regardless of playing any keys but all keys do react. I don't know if is something obvious or if it needs repair. All buttons and faders appear to be working and effect and change the sound. One knob has been replaced and all but one of the fader/ slide knobs are missing. The case is a little rough but solid."

Monome Arc4 Encoder smoothness


Published on Dec 1, 2016 Salz-Peter Zucker

"Short test of the encoder smoothness on the new Monome Arc4 - two of four are great on eis not so great. The fourth is somewhere in between - not as smooth as the nice ones but not making grinding noises either..."

No audio, just a demo of the knobs. So cool. It reminds me of the knobs on old classic stereo systems, specifically an old silver Yamaha system my older brother used to own.

Update:

Arturia Drumbrute Hardtek Style


Published on Nov 30, 2016 HardtekStudios

"I give the Arturia Drumbrute a good demo beat and play around with bringing in and out the different instruments, add sequence notes in real time and of coarse, tweaking the drum parameters. There are a few issues with the unit. The Filter will make a click type of pop when you engage it during playback. Also, if an instrument has swing, then playing the roller will mess with it's timing. Hopefully a future update might fix this. Stay tuned for lots more Drumbrute videos."
