Crazy new oscillator from Cyndustries...

I’ve never paid too much attention to the Cyndustries stuff, because it’s all Modcan format, and most of it is just other people’s designs, reformatted for the Modcan system. But today Cynthia announced something really crazy, the Zeroscillator. I’m not entirely sure what to make of this; as far as I can tell, it is a whole FM block, which would by necessity consist of two oscillators. The sound samples are illuminating, especially the bell one, which sounds very much like traditional DX-based FM. It looks really nice, and will be available in (get this!) MOTM, Blacet, Modcan, Euro-Rack, _and_ DotCom formats.

It is $650, which is pretty fucking hefty when you can buy two Blacet oscillators for the same price, and have enough left over for another module. But it can do some pretty strange shit, judging from the samples. Plus that big knob in the middle is pretty fly, and certainly worth a couple bucks.
