The whole thing is right up my street.
I like the sound.
I like the interface.
I like the sequencer.
I like the I/O.
I fucking like it.
Might actually save up and buy this one without selling all my other gear (which will be interesting given my income is £0).

Really, I mean are you serious? Why, the sequencer? Honestly looking for feedback because Pulsar is still nr 1 on my list atm.

I thought you were out of beat driven music for now? Back in?

I can immagine the complexity of the soma pulsar doesn’t help to create music. 90% of ytvideos suck, like farting machines

It’s ok, it’s gonna take me a year to afford it.

Totally, I don’t focus on real music atm.
I do live soundwashes, minimalistic or overwhelming walls of sound… to accompany experimental theatre/dance improvisations/pieces.
For me a Pulsar makes sense. I prefer to not know completely what’s coming next.
And if I need a steady beat I can take a DFAM/Tanzbar/OT with me & still drone and stutter the Pulsar.

I want to sell everything for some drum computer nect to my moog matriarch. No menu’s, no storage , Amazing sounds even without patching. My elektron boxers look shy and pale now (love my dt &ah)
I am afraid the pulsar 23 is too complex, this one might be nice

I imagine the Perkons would be a great addition to an Octatrack and Rytm setup.
Hope I can test this thing somewhere soon.
The hands on factor is strong in the Perkons!

I’d love to hear Kodek twist & shape whilst a good drummer played into the triggers.

I’m not sure how much Erica is handling the firmware given that Sonic Potions developed the mk-1 which is very similar to the mk-2 from what I can tell. If they are, Erica was/is responsive with updates to the Sample Drum and their Sequencers to fix bugs and add functionality.
They have proven to be able to update their devices while putting out a lot new products so I don’t see why they can’t show the Perkons, given that they undoubtedly having been working on it for awhile.
It might be more on Sonic than Erica anyway…

Also … and off topic …
When are expensive drum machines going to allow polymeters? Is eurorack or a Pyramid the only option still?
