Subdecay Prometheus IS OUT!!
- Thread starter Chronicle
- Start date
Holy crap! I just dropped too much money to get a Robotalk b/c I heard that the upcoming rerelease wouldn't have sample-and-hold. I had heard about the Prometheus but hadn't realized that it would do arpeggiation!
*shakes fists at sky*

Cool. I botherd Brian in July and he told be 6 weeks or so. That would put it out in September sometime.
Cause you don't know what it does
Well, well, well, Jovi! That sounds like a challenge... Pistols at dawn!
Actually, I do know what it does and it makes me want it even less. Maybe because I've got an analog synth on the way with an LFO.
Ordered. Luckily one of my guitarists expressed interest in the robotalk, so maybe this will work out after all!
now I just need my polish love and pickle pie b's to come in and I'm ready to participate in the Pedalboard XI thread.

You've got a Chunk systems OS coming?
This isn't a synth with just an LFO. It's a Low/hi/band pass filter. It has sample and hold. What doesn't attract you to that?

Ya-di-ya - I don't need a low-, high- or a band-pass filter. Neither a sample/hold.
I've got a sample and hold on the DD-6 anyhow... Not that I just it very much though. Only for my noise-core compositions.
And no, it's not a Chunk, it's a custom analog synth. This is what he writes -
"i can make something just as you describe!...its basically a square wave oscillator, with audio input to frequency modulate it. it also has a low pass filter, and a modulation depth control. the input has a huge amount of gain on it (almost 100x) so whatever you put in turns into big chunks of synth fuzz...so yeah, to answer your question, i can make you a synthesizer, like the one on ebay, with an audio input...and it will make some crazy electro sounds.
an LFO could also be added to modulate the oscillator, it could be made to be switchable between audio in, LFO, or no modulation.
do you want a stomp switch or would a true bypass toggle be ok? if you'd like a stomp, i'll have to use a metal case, which is fine, but will cost about 10 dollars more. so the pricing would be:
...
$** for a single oscillator with low pass filter and audio input, in a metal case w/ stomp true bypass switch.
$** for the same w/LFO"
I'm getting it with the LFO. So much cooler than the Prometheus.
You're right! Mine hasn't even been built yet.
Jovi - I'll make sure to do some sound clips of it when I get it. It's going to be crazy. I'll give you more details as the plan progresses... I can't wait for it myself. It's going to be sick.
I might get a theremin to run through it too.
