Developer James Grahame let us know that Meeblip has just released a 100 piece limited run of their geode monosynth, which has been out of production for over 2 years.
The geode is a hybrid synth design that features digital oscillators and an analog filter.
The geode nightshade edition features a monochrome color scheme with aluminum knobs, aluminum switches and a matte black front panel.
Features:
- Limited edition of only 100 units, signed and numbered.
- Shape your sound with envelope (attack, decay, sustain) and glide
- Choose from a range of independent, digitally generated waveforms on two oscillators: PWM, pulse, sawtooth, and triangle (osc A) or noise (osc B).
- Mix A + B oscillators, or choose one or the other (so you can focus on noise for percussion or single-oscillator acid)
- Sub octave and detune
- The unique analog MeeBlip filter, based on a 70s guitar distortion circuit
- Modulation routable to filter and pitch for subtle effects or cranked for chaotic warbles and FM-style sounds
- Complete MIDI implementation: use with USB, with iOS (via Apple adapter, not included), or standard MIDI / standalone
- Dual mono mini-jack output for easy monitoring with headphones or connection to other gear
- MIDI DIN input for connecting MIDI hardware
- USB for MIDI input, connecting to a computer
- Driver-free operation on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS* and Android
- USB powered – by a computer/mobile device or USB phone adapter (not included) for computerless operation
- 30cm USB cable included

really?
I want the Meeblip SE to come back.
Man, this thing was ahead of its time when it first came out.
Nice little box, but I really miss the grungy wavetables featured in the Triode.
Somehow first impression is that this is mighty expensive for what it offers
