Another polyphonic digital module ( to complain about ). The Neuzeit Warp.
This may be another trend at SB23.
Four voice but additive synthesis this time combined with wavetable. ( I couldn’t find a sound sample yet though. Something to look forward to for sure. )
ADDED : Additive synthesis with 512 sine waves per oscillator = 4096 sine waves in total. The specs on this thing look pretty cool. This will need a thread eventually.
While I respect your opinion, I might challenge and say maybe the American guys like Mario and Enrique maybe just don’t showcase the style/genre that you prefer like The great Cenk. I find it refreshing hearing a new take on what these machines can do in other genres/styles then the previous offerings.
In terms of marketing, I think its probably important to them to try to widen their demographics since they already have won over the cenk centric crowd. I really enjoyed the last live stream type video that Enrique and Mario put out recently on the Elektron channel. I think Mario is super talented and love hearing him make more boom bap oriented stuff on the Elektron machines, and seeing a few of his tricks on some of the perfect circle videos IE Digitakt two lfo update etc.
IMO Cenk is and was an amazing musician and eloquent product specialist, and I have learned a lot from his videos throughout my years with Elektron, so no slight against him, just feel like Mario has a tough job to try to compete with the past nostalgia while doing his thing. I think Ricky is a great addition and yin to his yang in terms of presentation style
It seems like nearly every day in r/modular or r/synthesizers someone asks about polyphonic eurorack. It seems a bit nuts to me, too, but people seem to keep asking for it.
While you are right that its just not my genre its just not that complex I think and doesn´t show the potential of the machines. I think those 4 to the floor beats are a little underwhelming for an elektron sequencer. But as you said. Might come down to taste.
I kind of agree with you, but the overall sequencing capabilities of the machines haven’t evolved that much. There’s plenty of absolutely wild using-everything-to-the-max music out there featuring Elektron gear. It’s nice to have more official demos that are restrained and show off the sequencer in a more traditional setting.
On-topic: polyphonic Eurorack is pretty widely asked-for. While it isn’t something that I personally want right now, I’m happy to see the manufacturers have responded to the desires for this.
Didn’t see mention of this in a search, Dreadbox mentions “something NEW” in an insta post for Superbooth.
What a time to be alive with all these announcements.
Superbooth should be renamed ; « bangers. All day »
I heard Rodec is presenting new gear too.
As long as it’s not as big as the original xpander.
Xpander: 33 x 12.5 x 6 inches
OB-X8 Desktop: 22 x 8.5 x 4 inches
OB-X8 seems to be pretty chonky and is several inches wider than a Peak.
Oh, right, I have no space for that either.
I assume that a big part of that size was the necessary internals - I’d hope not so much now.
My Take5 has a main board only around 9”x9”, which is probably a decent example of their modernized tech.
Chances are though it’d be at the OB-X8 Desktop price range or even more which would be too much for me.
For a Take 5 desktop? I’d imagine it would be closer to $1k.
No for an Xpander successor.
Take 5 already has a keyboard price point it’d be less than for a desktop.
There’s no Matrix 12 reissue to know the upper bound for an Xpander reissue.
not sure if this was mentioned yet but on their instagram arturia said to “get ready for a brand new product launch”
Augmented Sine Wave
Jk thanks for mentioning, interested to see what this might be…
No midi in?? 
(I actually very much like midi voice modules. I can fit a bunch of them in a 6U rack instead of having the carry around a bunch of individual synths.)
Wow, I feel like this is exactly what people have been wishing for other synth companies to put out. Looks really sweet. Wonder what reverb algorithm(s) they went with? Real spring reverb (tank mod selection)? Looks like it has a ton of LFOs too (says lfo 10 on the little screen). Cost yet?
I’m really, really hoping it’s going to be their new take on the Abyss (2.0). It’s been leaked quite some time ago, so the time seems ripe. As I stated in a previous post, that is going to be an instant buy. Holy moly. What do you think they’re bringing to the table? Other pedal? 
5k USD
Real spring, and a digital Lexicon reverb, I read.
