Size for sure! I'm not sure how they crammed all those features in at that price point though

HEY! Better update!
Amos sent me a PM. He's working on it!
(Urgh, I also realized maybe my 10.7 operating system could be part of the problem...)

Update!
the screen hangs on for at least 3 seconds before crashing now.

Yep, I upgraded the Sub's internal firmware correctly. It's working with Reason and on it's own, so I think the problem is software related. I can live with that though, at least the synth itself isn't giving me any trouble.

Hey all.
Updated my Sub Phatty's firmware. Great Success! Even retained my hard earned presets.

However, the editor crashes as soon as I set my preferences, both in standalone and in conjunction with Ableton LIve 9.
I've restarted everything, which is usually the fix for new program problems ...

I made one. But it's kind of crappy.
I used a CD4022BE chip. it just spits out the input voltage from a different lug with each trigger from the clock source. It works, but even if you have all the dials in the same spot, you get pretty different pitches.

You can sort of see it for a second, its ...

I was considering a prodigy for a while, but for a few months of looking I couldn't find one with CV jacks, nor could I find good info online about doing that myself.

If I were in that situation again, I would go for a Sub Phatty, but Im a big fan of USB and MIDI, as well as the "knob per function ...

Well, to be fair, I haven't ever tried a moog that didn't rattle my booty through a decent set of speakers.

I'm using mine for quite a bit of bass. I got asked to start a new project in which they wanted me to play bass guitar, and I said, nah, check this out instead: "BWUUUUAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

I like it a lot better than the minitaur, partly because of the integrated keyboard, but more for the easy preset ...

Hey, um, it turns out a little fuzz pedal can really open up some hellish sonic territory. In this case, my Old School.

I could probably do this for about an hour, but alas, duty calls.

My friend Peter Diedrick came by on Friday to show off his new piece.
The basis is theremin, and a bunch of looping, and my pitchgrinder occasionally.

Sadly, it is just a one camera shoot, but a lot of it looks almost as nice as the audio sounds.

i get it... a more gradual curve in the mapping of knob position to LFO depth! I will look at this.

I've made excellent progress on all of the instability bugs (panel controls freezing, output stopping until reboot) - I think this is 100% fixed.
I'm running some tests overnight, then I should know ...

It's called Animoog, and it's awesome!

I just thought that thing was HILARIOUS. Not offensive.

You can use your Phatty's USB cable for MIDI. This means controlling software synths for most people. If you want to record the sounds your phatty makes, you have to have an audio interface.
