Theres the kicker.

They CAN and it isn't that expensive for a run of 500 or more chips. (Compared to the cost of not being able to get them at all.) The more you order, the cheaper it is as the setup is what costs. I'm not a small MFG at all and it looks feasable at this point to try and run some CEM's for sale as the availability of certain ones is down to nothing and they are what are needed to bring some old machines to life. That would also open up the possibilty of NEW synths using these chips. (Analog-poly machines. Hint, nudge)Amos wrote:Panjit literally, currently manufactures high-voltage BBD chips that are sonically equivalent to Panasonic MN series?Just Me wrote:And there are companies that can manufacture the chips they need so they are not in such short supply.

Or they *could* if someone was to pay for a full-scale production run?
These are two very, very different things, if you're a small manufacturer...
I agree, Limited Edition = $$$$$, if they offered this in MU I'd really consider buying it for sure, but as nice as it may sound, i can't justify paying almost $600 for a fooger pedal again.Just Me wrote:Probably won't get one of these. It does nothing I can't do already with the gear I already have. (And it isn't the only chorus/flanger that has S/H. Just the only stand alone unit to have it.) And all the hype about limited just means too expensive to me. Now, if it came out in MU Format, that would be a different story.
