of buying some of this stuff to use myself. The main exceptions out of
the stuff I'm getting are I suppose Blacet and Wiard, one-man
operations, it seems, with unconventional minds designing their
products, or synth tech, who have some clever & thoughtful folks coming
up w/circuits for them. Even then, their products include a discrete
re-creation of the SSM 2040 VCF, & a forthcoming cs80 filter clone.
Again, not that I'm complaining or anything.
Personally, I would imagine any new designs bearing the Serge name would
be unusual, or would take existing design concepts to different places
(EG the compatatively recent-ish pulse divider, w/ integer divisions
instead of multiples of 2) I hope Rex can get through this undoubtedly
extremely shitty period for small businesses & produce something new
ASAP anyway
best etc
