    Default [Future Retro Revolution] - Anyone used one of these?

    http://www.future-retro.com/

    Has anyone seen/used one of these new Future Retro synths? They're supposedly hardware and based on the original circuitry of the TB303 but with some additions.

    I'm considering getting one, the only problem I'd have is that you can't control the filter frequency via MIDI without an external MIDI to CV convertor.
    202, 606, Alpha Juno, SIDstation, Freebass hed.

    $600 though :/ you would be better getting a MAM fat bass thing
    or a synteco teebee. or make a nice loop in rebirth and put through
    a fat guitar distortion pedal

    I've heard that the sound is really good, but that the buttons are not always reliable. I've been told that some of them start to fail after only a couple months on use

    i've read a good test and i definitely looks wicked, but i'd suppose i'd go for 'dave smith's evolver' after all i've heard.

    as the virus ones would be far more pricey, but i am no harware freak, so i dunno, if i qualify to tell you what to get.
