The small knobs are a bit difficult to reach, but you can't minimize HP and have large controls. The button / knob combos must be memorized and probably could not be used in a dark venue. Otherwise this is a very interesting module to use. I think the compromises they made were well considered. This thing would be twice the HP if was say an In5tro designed module ;-)

Thanks for the very considered assessment. Yes, the functionality-footprint tradeoff is something we thought about very carefully, and obviously every player will have their own preference on that continuum. The line we took was that, with all we wanted it to do, yes, footprint would far exceed what was reasonable or practical were it to be 1-button-1-function. We therefore designed it so that the most important musical elements (pitch, duration and octave) are directly accessible on the top layer and the more detailed ones are only ever a single button-hold away, clearly marked on the panel. Finally, it is first and foremost an instrument so a modest amount of muscle-familiarity with it to get everything out of it is, I think, a reasonable solution. There's a lot of comment on how quickly this comes in the user testimonials here...

...and also a nice demo here (fwd to 24min 45sec). Thanks for engaging :-)

Just to say I had the pleasure of using this in beta and it's superb. Beautiful construction, clean aesthetics, unique user-controllable Lin/Log taper response (while remaining an entirely passive module—very clever!). A great first module from a company you're going see a lot more from.

Oh dear - I completely agree and finalise a sale with @Jonjonjon , go to PayPal him, and literally the second before I hit Pay he messages to tell me not to bother because he's now sold it to someone else. I explain that this isn't cool, but I hear nothing back, so I perfectly reasonably down-rate him...and he then retaliatorally down-rates me in response for doing absolutely nothing except calling out his poor behaviour!! People, we act with integrity and honour here. This is not cool at all.

Moreover, I think we need a system to discourage retaliatory rating, although I recognise that that will involve more work for the site managers.
