From what I can gather, it seems they're likely losing money on this due to the cost and build style etc so it's clearly a vanity project for Uli
It arrived about a week and a half ago and I've spent maybe 10 hours playing with it so far:
The UI is a little clunky, but according to the bass player in the band (who's very informed on synth stuff), it's actually quite straight-forward once you get familiar with them (I am not). That being said, I am learning how to mix and match drum sounds, twist things a little to get more interesting noises out and generally make the most of it. We have a rehearsal tonight and we're doing something special that needs a drum machine funnily enough so I've dug out an old Alesis Microverb III so we can feed the snare out to a gated reverb - the unit has individual outs for each instrument which is super handy. It has about 6 drum kits on there but room for shitloads more and promises of updates for a while (plus people building sample packs). I might try and find a few snares with the gated reverb already on there so I forgo the Microverb and use it somewhere else if desired.
Anyway, here's a little something I did, along with my Jaguar and an appropriate signal chain. It's a bit ropey, but was written in about 20 minutes so take it as it is.
