I've been waiting for this to come... not listened to the demo yet but i'm fairly sure I need it.

I don't know how I feel, I kind of liked the flute setting

GOSH! For the effects loop of a Superego, I'm thinking orchestra or strings is going to be kicking some serious hiney butt.

*sighs* I bought the C9 for the Mellotron bank to use with my synths. Then EHX unveiled a Eurorack version. Now this...what bad timing.

holy shit it's like every shitty 80s goth synth sound i could ever need in one box
WANT
trying to use most of those sounds in the intended context is hilarious but that's standard for EHX demos.

That eurorack version is like 380 euros though. I really want one but god damn.

Gosh damn! The choir settings would be pretty hot in the Superego's effects loop, too! I may have to buy this just to leave permanently in the SE's loop. I need a release date and the name of the first retailer on their shipping list!

I FUCKING LOVE IT.
I've also been predicting almost exactly this product since day one of the B9's release. Can't wait for the eventual "Mellotron-izer" pedal that applies Mellotron style tape effects to any signal.

Since you knocked it out of the park on this one, could you please predict that Earthquaker Devices will put out a deluxe Arpanoid that will allow you to select the scale/mode/key for the arpeggios? Thanks.

Glad I held off buying the C9 and B9. Doesn't quite nail that kind of "creepiness" that a real mellotron has but since I'll never own a real one I'll pick it up. The choir sounds remind me of the Popol Vuh Werner Herzog soundtracks.
