Seems that Modal have fallen on hard times.
Administrators have been called in.
Thatās a shame
I had an Argon and it was a lovely synth, but the Skulpt and Craft synths seemed to be permanently out of stock and buggy as hell.
Strange. I have a Skulpt, itās not half bad, but itās not my favorite.
The ownersāll be along soon with a kickstarter for a new synth project i bet - any takers? 
Ah. I was really considering a Cobalt 8 this weekā¦ maybe time to consider something else.
I had to search āāstruck offāā and this is what came out :
What does youāve been struck off mean?
If someone with a responsible job such as a doctor or lawyer is struck off, they are officially not allowed to continue in that work because of having done something seriously wrong:
SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG?
not the same thing. if a company is struck off it pretty much means itās no longer trading and isnāt filing its paperwork

Expected this thread to be about Modal producing a browser app powered by AI.
Canāt say Iām surprised, although I canāt say why I canāt say Iām surprised, I just canāt say Iām surprised.

Iām getting out my Skulpt and making something. I wonder if my iPad app is up to dateā¦
Do I update the app if it asks me, or donāt I? Iām scared, and confused. I feel abandoned and it feels like itās all my fault.

Yeah, unless someone steps in and bail them out, itās going to be difficult for themā¦
IMHO releasing 3 different digital synths was a mistake, hard to figure which one does what exactly. They should have done something in the line of the Hydra synth, you make one synth and put all the engines in there.

IP and assets (software, hardware, stock, production equipment, brand) usually gets auctioned off to highest bidder. Often itās a constellation of new/pre-existing investors and some of the leadership of the old company
