Got an email through for this earlier and couldn’t resist…
Looks like a lot of fun on the cheap to me!
Anyway, thought I’d share - this is the sort of thing folks round here usually love to see!

Same here. I’m down for the early bird. Will decide in a couple of weeks if I’ll keep it but the drum machine and synth sound pretty good/fun for the price

That wavetable synth sounds filthy. Love it.

These little guys remind me of the old Technobox app on iOS

The 3 channel mixer records straight to micro sd!

Listening to a 16-step pattern looping endlessly through shitty speakers reminds me of the 90s. I would buy these for an eight-year-old nephew or niece, not something for the big kids though.
The mixer really is great.
If only Korg would release a Volca Mix with 2 x sync out (diff speed user config) 1 sync in and then 4 or 5 mini stereo jacks in with tiny thumb chaos pad recorded straight to micro sd multi channel!
But again these little boxes are a step in the right direction for fun times.
Can see these being a blast with a modular, OT, any TE units, Volca range etc…
Watched the tek.drum video and there is quite a range of sounds for such a little box, plocks are well implemented too.
I can see some ‘rocking the toilet’ breaks at work later this year!

Inside every big kid is a little kid wondering what happened!
I get what you’re saying but these look fun and as an adult there isn’t much fun to be had!

Without MIDI, I have no use for these. IMO a PO tonic is a better choice than the drum tech gizmo… OTOH the filter and the mixer are looking sweet. Would def go for the filter if it had a hipass in addition to lpf and bpf. Right now, only the mixer appeals to me… but it’s mono? Does it have a stereo output though (ie. dual mono)?
Yeah I’m excited about the mixer. For less then $50 a box I see it as a fun way to feed my OT. I’m a big fan of this micro synth movement. Cheap battery operated synths is perfect for a gearhead like myself. The drummachine seems pretty meat n potatoes but the synth sounds like a mean little beast!

Honestly, I would love the drum machine. It would sync right up with my Monologue, then I can slave anything midi I want to from there.

45 Pledge fella, swoop in!
After seeing the drummachine presentation I was thoroughly impressed. Seems more capable than the volca beats minus the midi of course.

Just had my confirmation email. They are looking to send out in October.
Looking forward to pairing my tek drum with the DT.

So my unit arrived today. Instead of creating another thread, that would no doubt be merged with this, I’ve opted to post a few pix here.
If there’s interest, I’ll do a video, but for now here’s some stills.
I’m hoping it’ll be a nice friend for the DT.
I’m. Already not a fan of the opaque casing and much prefer the solid blue of the prototype
I pulled out of the Kickstarter as all too soon there were questions about the final product looks/design and the ideas that were floating about were not to my taste and I knew that the boxes would probably end up a little on the ‘x-factor’ side.
Mmmmm…
That tek.drum drum machine sounds good to me!
