  1. i was here first.
    Jered, man.... you will now experience the full power of the collective synth community.

    Folks, get ready for a mini monosynth revolution of the 3rd kind.

    Congrats on keeping the price where you originally estimated...that took a lot of commitment and engineering brilliance in the face of ROSI.

    Sincerely, wish your team the absolute best holiday season in monosynth history... truly a work of art, and truly the very synth that we've been waiting for... and to top it off...it's done FR-style!

  2. Wow Jered. This is truly something. .5 ms on Envelope 1. Now the percussive bass of my dreams is a reality. The synth I have been waiting for, and as Shagghie said, in FR styleeo. I am stoked as all get out.

  5. FWIW, I hear the S1 all the time, and still anticipate the XS all the more because of it. 777's are golden, and my Revolution hasn't let me down yet in terms of pure usefulness in everyday studio work. The XS will dominate, I am sure of it.

  6. ARGH! If I hadn't just scored a second EML 101 for cheap I'd be all over this pre-order. I love my 777 and the XS is going to be an amazing compliment to it. I think Jared will do very well with the XS...

  7. I just went through the demos. Those are hands down the best synth demos I have heard in a long time.

  8. That patch towards the end demo #7 (3:07 mark) - sounds spot-on like My JP-8! Now, if I could only get 8 of these chained together - all under very manageable $10K mark ;)

    Looks like a cool little gizmo, alas, not in my taste, I'm afraid. Besides, considering competition from number of choices in that price point, I'd say one would have to be reaaaaaaaaaaaaaally after that type of gizmo to justify spending this kind of cash on it.

    I'll wait till they start showing up on ebay for $600.... (ha!) that's likely to happen.
