Just picked up one of these. So great. More than any synth I’ve ever owned, sounds the way I want it too: kind of juicy, alive, a little unstable. The built-in delay is a big plus for me too, as I try to keep my setup down to a minimum. The patchpoints make it easy to get some subtle evolving sounds going quickly.
If you like Boards of Canada-y sounds, definitely worth checking this out. Anyone here have one?
Yeah! I’ve got one. reeaaally liking it, and even though it’s not the most versatile synth in the world (the A4, for instance, has a lot more options), the immediacy is just great and it’s actually got a really wide sweet spot - and the patchbay actually gives a lot more options than I thought.
Here’s a demo I recorded for some purpose earlier. Drums OT.
I picked one up earlier this year too. Haven’t done tons of trippy delayed or eerie John Carpenter business yet.
But I did use it in this track just for the main simplistic staccato baseline.
There’s a bit of it as the drone sound in the background in the ‘remix’.
Some other fun synths in there too (A4, Streichfett & touch of SEM).
thinking of getting one of these or the newer Hades bass synth… as i find lack of patch memory to be more suited to a dedicated bass synth because its so easy to dial a new sound quickly in a live situation
might do both, who knows… i know i want to fill out the 2 CV tracks on my AK tho
Standard 19" rack format is what I want. Ideally, the form factor is such that it satisfies both desktop and 19" rack.
At the same time, maybe it would be good if some companies got together and standardized on 1/2 rack and 1/3rd rack format. The previous Erebus looked as if could have been designed to fit 1/2 rack width and say 3RU height for example.
I´d buy an Erebus v3 if the midi implementation was offering more than note triggering and pitch. Imagine how nice it would be to sequence it with the digitakt! But I guess that the concept is more “analog” with the cv patch points. Too bad I am not looking for an expansion for my modular system but a little synth to hook up with the Digitakt.
Pretty much why I sold my Manther. Lack of a decent MIDI implementation. However this thing sounds really good and that patch bay looks mighty nice as well. Kind of a decent trade off.
