I listened to Hatfield and the North at Rainbow. They were very wonderful and they made my heart a prisoner.

yeah i saw that about a month ago on Matrixsynth

it's seeming to be the same as an Oberkorn3, but with only 8-steps per row, no LEDs and no MIDI

love the handle/case-factor...not so wild about the legending/graphics

the Oberkorn is a great great sequencer, though....."b0, b1, b2" = fun fun fun
and CV input per row is very very handy for transposing and applying discrete modulations per sequence row

Someone should really hold a typography workshop for boutique synth manufacturers. Really.

Helvetica Neue / Condensed or Eurostile Extended: yes.

Cooper Bold: h**l no.

Totally. That font looks like OCR which I usually like, but not on synths. On bank checks they look great haha. Simple, clean Helvetica is way better like on synthesizers.com or that gothic that Korg MS-20s have.

I don't think the font really matters, it's the use of Lower case lettering that's a problem.

It doesn't really matter of course - it's just f**k ugly.
