What no MIDI :,-). This actually looks interesting, wonder how they were going to condense all the knobs down. Also outputs from the joystick!
I wondered about MIDI too. Thereâs an empty space where the USB connector is on Brains. Perhaps theyâll do that. USB is pretty much standard now for firmware upgrades, isnât it. Otherwise the USB is around the back.
Yeah good on Joystick outs ( and ins).
I think I said something similar upthread but I think B would get a lot less grief if they did more things like this Victor module. Not necessarily doing more eurorack - but creating something that is a little bit different from things that already exist rather just slavishly mining the nostalgia. Theyâve still got a way to go with regards to graphic design (still has a bit of a vibe of what teenage boys from 1997 think looks futuristic) but itâs definitely at the top end of their spectrum.

the graphic design on this one, the neutron/proton, and the brains are all an abomination. Definitely looks like the worst late 90s sports gear, and garish boys t shirts of the time. I think that exact kind of font is just marketing shorthand for âyou are a man, and you are extreme and intense.â It basically looks like the young blonde demoer guy with the spiky hair designed it all

Moot. It doesnât look like that anymore. Itâs black with simple blue trim.
All these designs are strawmen to draw comment in design. ( Excuse me for repeating this point. )

But perhaps it wasnât moot at the time of posting. And if designs are posted here in a thread to discuss their potential releases then itâs only sensible that people comment on whatâs posted here⌠I wouldnât expect people to have to go searching other parts of the internet on the off chance a further iteration has been published which may make a passing comment out of date.

Agreed. I didnât comment on delikinesis postâs content, only that the current design has changed.

I commented on their design saying all the same things i said here, and then they changed it back to the pro vs blue when someone sent in that mock-up. Much nicer, Iâd grab one

Highly subjective. I like this design. Whats important is it comes to fruition.

The new design is really nice. Certain looks have their associations and I really prefer simple ones that donât recall extreme sportswear

i prefer the elegant simplicity of borats unitard to the aforementioned designs 
MmmâŚMatching drum UW?! huh? huh? Oh yeah!
I think as many who are mocking them, they are giving people, jobs/careers engineering these, making them, though I donât know how well those people are paid and that counts, and giving so many an affordable dream. Not just some professional.
Say what people will, I think in the end more people enjoying and accessing making music, and instruments people are asking for is a win.

the geforce Oberheim OB-E sounds incredible. iâm in love with that sem/svf sound. I really hope that behringer nail that with the 2-xm, but I think i will ultimately want some sort of poly. i guess if the ub-xa comes out within the next 2 years, it should be comparable enough to the ob6?
Better. The OB6 was a sort of compromise.

There are differences. Some prefer the OBxa some dont.
I think thatâs a bit unfair. It wasnât ever meant to be a reproduction of the XA at all was it?
The only things (I believe) the OB6 lacks compared to the XA are 2 voices, layering and an LFO? Whereas you gain loads of things like variable oscillators, filter types, sub osc, aftertouchâŚ
