Yes this has already been asked when RNBO was officially announced a few months ago, @Ess confirmed its not possible, or at least not feasible, for various technical reasons but also including i think something to do with having to pay license for commercial use of RNBO
Its a fantastic self contained piece of software, why the need to port it to a hardware environment?
I’m basically allergic to computers (having to deal with them the whole day for work) but Opal is a piece of software that really makes me want to overcome this aversion… I couldn’t so far, though
If there was a kick starter to make Opal a hardware thing, I’d instantly sign! And it seems I wouldn’t be the only one.
(I know, there’s DN, but I don’t find it as interesting as Opal)

I love everything Fors make, so I hope its related to updates on previous devices.
Would be great to see EDO and Hz tuning added to Glanta and Superberry since the other synths have it…
Also Opals pattern automation could be smoother (I always experience a bit of flam between patterns regardless of automation positioning) and would love to see swing per track and pan plocking
Also a midi gate/hold env for slate
I will tune in anyway, Ess makes great instructional videos for the devices!
I’m predicting a demo/release of Opal v1.2 (plus sale ) and possibly a sneak peek of something completely new.
Surprise me = (just dreaming) Dot’s Euclidean sequencing added to Opal’s sequencer. Two dinky sliders/knobs: one for the percentage of steps filled in, the second for the rotation/position. Plus a toggle to choose whether or not rotation shifts automation on steps or keeps it where it is.
