On the Meeker FX web page, it indicates a bundle with all five will be available... wonder when?

Very interesting! Never heard of circuit bending before, so now I am watching youtube videos of Gyro Gearloose doing weird things to old toy keyboards.

I wonder what "sythesizers" are... ;)

Just tried a few of them briefly. Not for me it seems. Just didn't see the appeal with them. There were a few nice sounds here and there but nothing that beats the intruments I already got.
I liked the reverb though.

I still like to try out new REs and encourage new (and old) developers but with all the stuff that's out there it's getting harder and harder to impress the customer I guess.

I'd also like to encourage RE developers to put some effort into their GUIs - or have someone more capable handle that part.

It's 2018, not 2003, Mr. Meeker.

Good luck.

All 5 REs could be one RE with switchable instrument panels like the oscillator panels in Thor. And I would like to see audio inputs for the FX section like in Antidote and CV outputs for all 3 envelopes and for the LFO. It's an RE not a VST :puf_wink:

Not really interested in these, but it's worth mentioning that Deja Vu is still a very cool delay

These are IDT type of REs... I think that won't allow for either FX in routing nor a lot of CV in / outputs...

That's not very nice.

If anyone's doing the FAWM (February Album Writing Month) Challenge and wanted a set of rules to create by, here's an idea. Do a month long trial run of this Circuit Bent series on Feb 1st and restrict yourself to only these devices for sound generation. Because February is a shorter month you can even download the trials two days beforehand to get yourselves acclimated to them.
