The Gater effect may be worth it alone for me. I’m quite excited for this thing!
This one is rather intriguing to me :
I am still in honey moon phase with my recently acquired Mood mkII and it kinda feels like it would have some overlap, but yet, I am very intrigued…

On the ‘ordering hype’ side of things, I’ve just ordered a Great Conjunction (after seeing the one a friend has bought), so I’m feeling kinda hyped about my order. Now the hard bit, being patient…

As my er301 has died and the rrp is very nice I’m all over this…
So I should be able to run RNBO

Ah, I didn’t know you were here! The Great Conjunction certainly seems like a fantastic little device and I’m looking forward to getting it.

It’s a great little instrument. 
Got mine a while ago and I’m really enjoying it.

It seems to be a bit in the spirit of Rene mk1 or 0-CTRL, designed to interact and jam with.
[LATER EDIT: most of the following speculation turned out to be wrong]
The design slightly deemphasizes the CV values by stacking them on the analog-ish knobs and making room for a bit more x0x. Glide seems to be an important feature, as there are two buttons labeled GLIDE (maybe invoked while holding the ALT button) plus two CV inputs labeled PREGLIDE. The sequencer appears to focus on short 4 and 5 step sequences and their phasing for creating complex patterns. Other shift functions seem to enable other polymetric relationships. The four CV channels are labeled M, N, P, and Q, and there seems to be some switched transposition (or analog logic?) for mixing some of the channels. Dedicated range and polarity switches are provided for each CV channel—a strong statement. Gate outputs seem to be on an expander and the DYNACTRL labeling is intriguing.
Looks fresh. Of course, it’s Rabid Elephant, so it won’t be available for two more years, it’ll cost $2,000, and they’ll only build five at a time.

Another perk of preordering the sparks is first access to a new ribbons drop! I emailed after preordering asking if they were done making ribbons. That’s when he told me they are doing a small update on it and that anyone who preordered gets first right!

I love the other Doboz modules. XIIO is probably the most important module in one of my cases (and I use two of them). I did modify the firmware to allow sequences to be recorded (yay open source), but as a “push buttons no screens” module, it’s great. Similar feelings for TSNM gen 1. Don’t discount the simplicity of the older modules. Though, T12 seems cool for a studio case.

I’m not going to reproduce it all here, but if anyone is particularly interested in the Rabid Elephant Nexus Seq, they’ve posted info and demo videos here on that other place, and here on their web site (including a PDF manual). It’s only about $700 (with expander—not sure why it’s an expander) but the lead time for orders is typical Rabid Elephant.

I did laugh at the, “preorders will be delivered either 50 years from now or after your second child graduates from high school, whichever comes first” disclaimer. (KIDDING, by the way. RE is great but yeah their lead times are legendary.)

looks cool, but really makes me appreciate the folks who announce a module and it’s ready to ship that day

RE is very close to the Kickstarter model. Which I mostly avoid - except I trust RE to come thru on their commitments.
