NAMM leaks, announcements, and rumors

The store I work at has Minilogues on the wall already. I played one while I was deciding on my MS20 Mini and it's pretty rad. The midi and no cv thing is fucking frustrating though and I didn't get a chance to run through the effects much.

There are plenty of Midi-to-CV converters.

Yeah but I was hoping for separate control per oscillator and such

Maybe I'm just not interested in gear anymore but I pretty much don't see the point in any of this new stuff. Except for the Minilogue, which is everything I like in a synth, but even then I would just get it to have a physical, hands-on experience with the features I already enjoy with software.

Stone Deaf's new shit looks amazing to me, especially the cartoony graphics that you don't really get to see done well anywhere.
Also, I can't tell if Dunlop is being dead serious or is just screwing with your TGP/Gear Talk/ P&W crowd.
In any case, I almost want to look at that Delay and Reverb.


Almost.

Seriously, kinda want that Warp Drive and the Expression pedal just cause they look so good. Also this head is sexy as fuck

Yeah all that looks amazing but I keep hearing that the PDF-1 is all kinds of secret sauce, so the PDF-2 should be solid gold awesome right?

I played a 1 at DDubz place a while back but there were just...so many pedals... I couldn't focus.

I really want to hear The kliptonite and WarpDrive, and then there's the Tremotron. But the new run of Goatkeepers has stolen me from the Tremotron.

The fact that the knobs have lights around them that light up like on a Moog synth seriously makes me want to destroy my credit rating.

I don't even understand the stuff going on in the stone deaf amps. They just look incredible. I don't know why exactly, but they look like a miyazaki designed amp. Cute and wonderful, but practical and perfect.

10th anniversary run, similar to GK3's but with smaller enclosures.

PDF-1 is all kinds of awesome, useful in so many ways. PDF-2's tweaks should make it even better - especially the stomp switch for clean/dirty. I still don't know how I did it, but I busted the lever switch on my PDF-1. Has to be harder to bust a foot switch…
Amps do look interesting. I'm not crazy about saving tone presets (I'm pretty much a set it and forget it kind of guy with all my amps) but I can see how it might be useful.

The PDF-2 is slightly smaller w/ a lower noise floor than the v.1, and has a switch for the Clean/Dirty modes, which is a pretty convenient upgrade (vs. just the flip switch). Some of the early runs of the PDF-1 didn't have an expression out, so that's also new, sort of (mine does). The Q-sweep is very nice, which is like changing the template of your core sound to stack it around whatever else you'd like (the dirty channel is great, too). I'm not sure if all the new run of pedals still work only w/ their proprietary expression pedal, but that was the case w/ the first line-up (PDF-1, Fig Fumb & Dirty Blonde).

Edit: Whoops! Me & horseyboy were posting at the same time.

Internet whispers......"Arturia has a new mono synth The MatrixBrute. it looked like it had 3, maybe 4 oscillators (3 and a sub?) I believe each osc has all 4 waveforms. the middle section is a grid of what looked like 16x16 buttons as modulation routing..."

I love the patchablilty of my Microbrute. I wish more companies would add connections. Imagine on amazing those Volcas/Minilogue could be.
