This is like an open source OP-1
- 0des 4y agoI can't tell if I'm cut off or you got downvoted for this comment that also came across my mind. Either one is bad news!
- singingfish 4y agoHave you come across this: https://www.critterandguitari.com/organelle https://www.critterandguitari.com/organelle Basically a raspberry pi optimised to run puredata with a small screen and a bunch of buttons and dials. I have one it's pretty cool. I like the look of the LMN3 too though.
- anon9001 4y agoI love TE's stuff and I've always thought it was a huge miss that they don't opensource everything. The new OP-1 looks great and so does the TX-6, but I'm not buying either knowing that I can't maintain/upgrade/contribute. Will I pay $1200 for a 6-channel mixer with dsp effects? No. Would I "sponsor" the same exact mixer if it was open hardware/software and hackable? Absolutely, because that should exist in the world. Same with the M8 (which appears inspired by TE and LSDJ): https://dirtywave.com/products/m8-tracker https://dirtywave.com/products/m8-tracker Glad to see more open source music hardware happening. Maybe we're at the beginning of a new DIY wave.
- krnlpnc 4y agoNo need for a new project. Performance mixers have been a thing for a long time and affordable models exist from roland, korg, pioneer and others. TE just shrank the thing to an unusable size and slapped on their pricetag.
- MadcapJake 4y agoName a performance mixer with effects per track and bus, at least 12 channels, all channels available through a USB interface and a backing track drum machine? Even if you consider some of the boutique DJ mixers, they are very large and extremely expensive compared to this. My two gripes with it are the minimal MIDI implementation and the tiny knobs for my thick fingers.
