New purchase, or rather an older one, sent to Canada to avoid Portuguese customs hassles, and retrieved on our latest trip.

@plragde I don't know what this does but I already know I want one

@edwinb I'm not actually totally sure what it does either.

@plragde It seems to me that that's half the fun. This is not a rabbit hole I've gone down yet but I expect it's just a matter of time...

@edwinb When I first plugged it in, it went "thump thump thump" and then I moved the joystick and it went "screeeee HONK eeeek blip BLAT". Took a while to get something I would consider melodic.

On the positive side, you probably find yourself in Glasgow from time to time, and Signal Sounds is a great resource. On the negative side, you have a UK academic salary, and this is a serious money sink.

@plragde I have noticed that it is a good way to spend money fast! Though I have been pointed at VCV rack as a way of seeing what you can do, but I haven't tried it.

@edwinb Yes, that is a good route, though you should be careful if you treat it as a pre-physical evaluation stage. I wrote something about that here:

@jmtd @edwinb Yes, what are you doing here? Get off your laptop and go play!
