Seems like itās the same part, mine is also plenty stiffā¦ unfortunately some people got droopy joysticks, maybe erica would replace them if asked.
I think that joy-stick discussion has been done already in the other SYNTRX thread. If you want iāll get the link.
Maybe worth it to reassure anyone who had the ādroopyā syndromešÆ
If itās like any of the joysticks Iāve worked with it will be a self contained part soldered to a circuit board - so replaceable but not something most people would be able to swap out unfortunately.
Itās probably a standard part - is it one of these by any chance? Omter Joystick Unit ā Thonk ā DIY Synthesizer Kits & Components
Edit: Iām fairly sure it is this one.
Like i said this is all a repeat, you can go back and reread the whole thing here :
Given that no one has the 2, an extra repeat on the discussion may be moot, letās not relive this problem. Unless you insist.
nice look at the sequencer there at the end
Itās such a gorgeous machine - itās like one of those VSTās you see and wish were real
Beautiful
A work of art?
Iād happily buy a bricked one and hang it one a wall!
Nice stuff, sounds like the filter is a significantly different to me, maybe not a diode filter. He talks about it here mostly like it is a direct improvement on the first model. I suppose it is tricky to ride the line of selling a new product and making old users feel good about spending a decent chunk more on the old product. Some of them very recently.
Thank you for being a guinea pig, and funding this wild amount of research, that i am now going to cash in on. /s
But i donāt think thatās what occurred. The first one is an excellent product, that everyone who owns should treasure.
yeah I mean went I bought I always assumed there would be a second versionā¦ just doesnāt make sense to put the R and D into it that they did for just a one time limited run. I do indeed treasure mine as well. It would be a nice goodwill gesture if they pushed an update to the old versions mod matrix but I suppose I donāt know if it is actually possible, they did tell me it was once but maybe they ran into complications with updating it.
Anyways I donāt really want to derail the thread off of syntrx 2 it looks really cool, I would like to hear the effects of using its delay as a mod source instead of directly listening to it. Would be cool to see some midi based patch scrolling also. Imagine catching a delay on one patch and then using it as the modulation source on the next, could be some pretty interesting stuff 
Astonishing to me really the technology that Erica is now capable of. The future products from them will also be stellar.
Drum machines too. I think if a manufacturer makes me want to make techno even though Iām not into techno is a success
YES! would love this. give us the sequencer! (though in reality, thereās probably a dedicated chip for that in the V2, I guessā¦) and I agree about always assuming thereād be more versions/investing R&D timeā¦ related: keep an eye on the Perkons platform in the future.
this is the #1 feature Iāve wanted since the second I saw the V1. itās so awesome to just leave the front panel as is, then scroll through patches and see what you get. would be even better if you could sequence that via midi. lots of happy accidents and chaos.
i played with it at Superbooth:
