In reply to Frank Sampedro. They've done some amazing videos previously showing how weird the C15 can get, too. Do you really think focusing on that at a trade show makes sense, though? If they did that, people would think all it can do is bloops and bleeps.

As a long time user of the C15 (same engine as C22), I often feel as though the presenters Nonlinear Labs chooses to demonstrate their instruments are almost playing a different synthesizer than the one I own. Or rather, I feel as though they’ve developed a futuristic space shuttle capable of traveling between galaxies, but spend all their time demonstrating how safely and capably it can fly from Berlin to Oslo. They’re selling an instrument any serious experimental composer would love to bloated prog and white blues-loving rich Europeans.

Now, that’s what I call demo of the instrument, truly excellent 🙂
