Make Noise XPO Stereo Prismatic Oscillator

I know it says new module, but still can’t help wishing it’s a new desktop. I love the desktop series. They’re so easy to move around and use with other gear.

insect:

as the mimeophone is not available anymore (acording to schneidersladen website)

Available in Canada at Nightlife Electronics (and they just received them a couple of weeks ago):

Nightlife Electronics

Make Noise Mimeophon

Mimeophon in stock now! The Mimeophon (from Greek mimeo (repeat/copy) and phon (sound)) is a modern take on various historical sound copying, echo and repeating devices. It allows for Stereo modulations of Time, Space and Timbre of Mono or Stereo...

Price: CAD 549.00

Edit- also, could be a mixer module of some sort

Dang it. I was about to post this conspiracy theory

hm maybe, but the x-pan is in stock again at Schneiders and its lifespan is also not that long, I guess 3 or 4 years untill now? And then you have optomix, modemix and ofcourse maths for mixing duties.

While looking on the announcement flyer I guess there are some hidden signs … maybe. To me looks like some gate streams and 2 envelops. So maaayyyybe Maths mk3 sort of thing?

There is also another speculation from reading into the graphics that I saw on lines forum. Maybe it’s a fxdf replacement? A fixed filter? That would be my dream. More small fixed filters like the Filter and Noise, and Fxdf!! Loving my Filter and noise still.

I’m a big fan of make noise and have their 0-coast/0-Ctrl, Shared System and Mimeophon. Would love to see new Eurorack modules from them.

Two days to go Here’s where the livestream will be:

Anybody got any fun speculations to throw out here before the big reveal? Maths v2 on the way?

bwo · 2022-07-13T21:32:08.559Z

from an instagram story post it seems to be a module… part of me thinks it will be a multifx module or maybe an oscillator with many different synthesis modes? I dunno this is just guessing based on the image for the youtube having symbols that don’t really corelate with each other. I mean I suppose we could try to break down what each symbol means.

g0r0s · 2022-07-13T21:47:39.250Z

I’m gonna guess based on the audio on their new insta post that’s it’s some kind of crazy phaser thing…

specific · 2022-07-13T22:08:28.262Z

Based on the audio, I am going to guess a wavetable synth - Based on the glyphs I’d guess some kind of envelope generator. Glad the wait/speculation will not be long!

your_lamp · 2022-07-13T22:13:11.249Z

Oooooh maybe a Make Noise version of the Buchla ‘barber pole’ phaser?

Looks nice. Fits well with the other recent stereo modules. I’m still learning my DPO. But, of course it’s beautiful work.

HoldMyBeer · 2022-07-16T06:05:11.097Z

Yeah, I watched the video live a couple hours ago. Seems like it adds some cool things to their stereo lineup, and also on its own as a module. It is an interesting concept for sure.

I don’t dislike it but I’ll be honest it doesn’t really appeal to me all that much, which is a shame as it would look very nice next to my QPAS and Mimeophon.

I would have liked 2 oscillators, but I’m greedy - could have even opened up interesting multi-timbral stereo capabilities. The lack of soft sync and also octave control for the sub outs is a shame too, especially when it has 5 dedicated wave outputs for it… and they’re mono - which I kind of get but also don’t.

A second, detunable oscillator would have sold it to me though - use some of that sub patch space for it.

your_lamp · 2022-07-19T13:19:46.343Z

You’re sounding like the people who lamented the lack of sampling on Syntakt. Like, sure, but also just get a DPO or something else if you want control over a second oscillator.

Get 2 of em if you want the full stereo experience

natehorn · 2022-07-19T13:33:55.127Z

Hey a girl can dream - I happen to be in the market for a new voice right now so this would be in the consideration pile, just sharing my thoughts on it - you’re sounding like one of those folks that lament anything but positivity

your_lamp · 2022-07-19T13:39:26.407Z

You know I always value your input @natehorn <3

It just seems premature to start pointing out what this is missing when we’ve spent a collective 0 hours with it yet. Tony put a ton of work and love into this module — he went into great detail in the announcement stream, explaining every single jack and every design decision — so we’d be fools to receive this and focus on what isn’t there.

That said, I do love the second oscillator on DPO and use it extensively, so I definitely hear what you’re saying.

natehorn · 2022-07-19T13:40:54.565Z

It’s too damn hot!

(This statement explains and excuses any and all of my behaviour)

your_lamp · 2022-07-19T13:49:32.121Z

I baited you with my dick-ish Syntakt/sampling comment.

It’s not as hot here so I don’t have as good of an excuse.
