I believe this is just a CV mixer. Saw this at the NAMM show. Looked like a
nice way to integrate the Moogerfooger pedals, and certainly would work with
other items, but not sure how much utility it really adds to an MOTM system
as compared to spending the money on another module.
The new Moog synth was interesting too, although the only MIDI implementation
was keyboard control. I thought it would have been cute for a
live-performance synth if they ditched the keyboard and made it a
mini-modular system with patch points on the modules. But it is still a
normalized Minimoog-type signal flow layout. Personally I would have hoped
for something a little more exciting after over 30 years of experience!
Don't get me wrong, I think the Big Briar stuff is decent gear. But it just
doesn't hold up to MOTM product. And what's with those retro-rocker switches?
Ok, mini-flame off....
