Remember FLAME, the talking synth? Check out their MIDI controller. Title link takes you to the product page which also has a psychoFLAME sequencer listed but no pic, though I'm wondering if that's it in the site's header below.
FLAME looks and sounds cool, but $550? Pretty steep. The name escapes me at the moment, but within the last year or so, somebody was selling a modular format unit based on the speakjet and it was WAY cheaper. Ask on the AH list and I'm sure someone will remember. There's also the MIDI option for Speak & Spell from Highly Liquid, fifty bucks if you build it yourself, $80 they build it, $100 they build it and install it

ReplyDeleteThe psychoFLAME picture looks like it is still in the prototype stage. The pic in the header is the wildFLAME:

No one will buy these.
ReplyDeleteTheir friends will call them flamers.
That module would be the PSIM. But I hear he screwed a bunch of people by taking money and never shipping.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if he ever did escape that reputation, or if the reputation was universally deserved.
