yeah. I circuitghosted my Deluge a while back, but have been rethinking that decision lately. MPE could put it over the top as a re-acquisition.

Hey peeps Iâm trying to order a deluge to the UK and Iâm trying to work out if there will be any additional Brexit charges beyond the normal duty and vat.
Man Iâm getting nowhere.
Any UK nauts bought one from NZ this month that can help me out?
I havenât bought one from NZ but there shouldnât be any change to purchases from NZ into UK. Usual VAT, customs and handling at the border itâll be!
What I canât confirm is what customs code itâll fall under. So the customs charge could be one of a number of possibilities.

Cheers dude. Googling Brexit is a pure minefield hah. Hopefully DHL donât add on some extra crap as well then.
Gonna catch this before the price hike on the 1st.

Good luck!
Handling fees are on average about ÂŁ10. I think Customs is added to the price incl vat too by the way but hopefully itâs most a couple of %.
Cool!
I calculated the normal VAT an duty an it wasnât too bad.
Cheers for the reassurance. Away to blow my paycheck

Cheers, thatâs really helpful 
What percentage was that as a matter of interest ? 20% ?
Yeah I used 20% for VAT. Itâs shipped but I havenât had a bill from DHL yet.
Edit: if youâre gonna order one there seems to be shipping delays. Should be 3-4 business days but mine is saying 09th Feb.

@circuitghost would you be so kind to expand on this? I know about probability but this sounds a bit different. Are you using the ARP to randomly pick a note?
Yeah I was curious about this too! Never knew I could do this with my deluge!

Donât worry, you can ignore that Feb 9th estimate. It always gives a 10 day or so estimate initially (their usual) before realising itâs express, after it starts its journey, it will still take around 4 business days, youâll see the estimation rapidly decrease.
Youâll be asked to pay around 100-110 GBP in total for VAT and other import costs, on very rare occasions it slips a little above or below that number, but generally its always thereabouts for GB.

That is awesome news. Thank you. Cool cool thatâs about what I had calculated.
Sweet I can up my excitement level again âŚ10 days is a slow burn hah.
First non-elektron box for about 5 years an it looks like a lot of fun!
Cheers for the info

Ok Iâve jumped on board and put my order in. The impending $100 price jump did it for me. The feature set here looks impressive. I really like the idea of working on the large grid layout.
I like the fact theyâve polished this interface over a series of years. It seems like they are dedicated to updating and improving the product.

Iâd be happy to.
So assign two notes to the same vertical. Say one C3 and one G3.
Set both to a probability of 50.
Deluge will now always play one of the two, but never both at the same time.
If you set up something as brief as a four step pattern, two notes per vertical with 50
probability on all of them, you get a complete self-playing variation where youâve set the harmonic rules but still leave room for chance.
Itâs a fantastic way to create variation and also keep your track still shift but stay within a harmony you prefer.

Youâre welcome, mate. It really is a lovely feature.
Actually, @ddiamond84 and @Affectionate-Bee-781 come to think of it, I tried the same trick just now but with four notes instead of two, with a prob of 25 per step on the vertical. It works. So thatâs like four defined steps per vertical that a trig can go per cycle. Pretty cool.

So is anyone using Downrush a lot with the deluge? I saw it at the end of the loopop video and it looks really interesting. Do you find yourself using it often or is it just more of a utility thing?
The 64GB W-04 on amazon are like $160 so itâs a bit of a leap if itâs something Iâm not going to use very much and a regular sdcard would do fine. I really like the idea of not having to take the card out and being able to edit on the fly but perhaps it isnât so smooth in reality.
Thanks
