Looks really interesting but I gave up around 25 seconds in because the blurry wobbly camera effects have literally caused me to lose my dinner.  A good demonstration of how not to show off your gear :-/

If at first you don't succeed, stick it through a fuzzbox.

wobbly effects or not, that is one peach of a synth, love the boards that slot in top that he manipulates with touch at the end.

they just dont make em like that anymore................. Unfort the video was shot in an arty way, but hope peeps can look beyond that.

"A fortune".  A guy on the Synth-DIY mailing list has built a clone though.

I agree the filming is a pain in the ass but the synth is amazing, thanks for sharing.

The thing I like most about it is the variety of different ways of ways a human can interface with it...

slider pots, swivel pots, patches, body contacts, switches, buttons -  SO expressive...
