Anyone else see this thing? Personally, I think TE is out of their mind if they think it's worth $2300. I see the sentiment being repeated a lot.

The disappointing part is, you know it'll sell like crazy, anyway. Screw them for this ridiculous price gouging. Screw people for supporting their price gouging. I'm not usually a vindictive person, but I hope sales are awful so they don't inspire anyone else to try this approach.

Seriously, anyone considering this thing, go buy a Digitakt or an Oxi One and use it with your phone and take a nice trip to Thailand or something with your leftover money.

All the synthtubers are gushing. I'd gush too if TE forwarded me one early for free.

Most TE products are definitely extremely priced. I'm not getting pissed about it though. There is obviously a market for them and there is little in direct competition when it comes to size/form factor + feature set.

That being said, not worth it for me. Would rather buy one of my big dream synths for that price.

I have the Ep133 and while it has its quirks and limits, it's a fun device at a lot more reasonable price.
