I might be more inclined to save some money and program similar sounds with the gear I have, to be honest. That is $1,320.00 in Canada, for a two octave synth and that is before any import duties or HST. I think this will be a challenge though I always am glad to see new ideas come out.

Some of his play demo sound like Boards of Canada!

Is this a newfangled ROMpler or … ?
