the question for me, same as for the minitaur: Will it have a VST/AAX counterpart for full recall and seamless integration. I should be able to dial in a sound and have it saved on the session. That way the synth can always remain patched in and always recall properly exactly like if it was a software instrument. Do that and I am SOLD.
Yeah, I wonder if there might be a way to connect them a la poly! Kinda like multi-slim/little-phattys, especially if they release a rack/module version of it

I doubt it because it doesn't look like it has patch memory. i.e. no digital control.
That's a good price for an analog synth with a keyboard. I have a Mopho w/out the keyboard, but the keyboard version is a lot more. Maybe it is a nicer keyboard than the one they put on this synth?
I wonder if this would be a good companion synth with the Mopho, but it would have to sound considerably different for me to get it.
That reminds me, I need to use my Mopho more often. I've been neglecting it.
USB in means vst control capabilities. This thing seems really cheaply priced. Very curious if it sounds amazing. that mixed with good vst control and I'm sold.

you should get the virus ...
btw, you can also have vst control capabilities through MIDI, but not recall (other than patch recall, that is)
If true, that's really cool. USB usually just means MIDI though. But that NAMM teaser video wasn't showing up for me before and now it is. It looks like a software GUI, so who knows. Still it would be kind of weird if this thing could load presets via USB but not have any built in preset storage.

Seeing it is Arturia and it has no display on it at all but yet does have USB, I think it would have some level of integration.
Let´s hope they are not as "cheap China built" as their Spark is ... I had to return two of them because of crappy build quality and gave it up then ...
Diode ladder like EMS I guess? But it evidently had separate inputs for hi, low and bandpass rather than outputs. Kind of different. This obviously doesn't have the separate input aspect.
