very nice ^ original project!

im sure this will have demend if it releases out as a commericla product,what exacly is its corrent price? how much did it cost to build
(+countless hours of programing) ?

Wow! a DIY kit for under 500 euro will be amazing.

The price right now is ?350. It will be lower if there is more people buying it - It took him and and some other fellas almost 3 years of programming and building it.

Sounds really good :D Very much my taste. I would seriously consider building one myself if only i wasn?t saving up for a Fantom X7 :roll:

Edit: Some more specs would be nice though. They don?t really tell much about it. Does it have memory; is it monophonic/polyphonic, multitimbral; is all parameters MIDI-controlable; etc.

More and more info is coming online all the time.

Fantom X7? Why not a X6? I'd love to have a Fantom aswell

Looks pretty cool.....

Ahhh.....too much stuff I wanna buy, not enough cash!

:(

this is perfect for nasty sounds tweaking live.
maybe with an external controler aswell,4 knobs seems not enough.

I really love it when people create stuff like this! Definitely different to the average home built job too. I'm DLing the sound demos, which should be done when I wake tomorrow - changing my conection finally next month!

Ahhh.....too much stuff I wanna buy, not enough cash!

I'll say!!! I know where there's a DBX 160s for just over $1000aus and considering I'm currently looking for a new compressor this is so tempting. Not to mention the Mackie SR24-4vlc that I saw selling for $600aus!!! I can't even afford the bargins!

That's enough whinging. :cry:

Because the X6 only has 5 octaves. I?m going to use it as a piano (as well as synth of course) because i made a deal with my wife that if my "real" piano could be stored away (to give more space in the livingroom) i could have a Fantom X and 61 keys can be a bit to short sometimes when playing piano. I have considered the X8 but i?m not sure that the hammer-action keys will be good for general synth purpose (an it?s fucking expensive) and the keys on the X6 and X7 fells pretty good.

Oh i see. Bl?rfgh. Lucky you mate!

[Tomer=Trance]

can you store your piano at my place? :D

[Onkel Dunkel]

I think it would be cheaper to buy one yourself when you think about the the shipping cost from Denmark to Israel. The thing weighs about 250kg :?

[Tomer=Trance]

forget about shiping,
I'l carry it on my back across the ocean :D
