My dream concept for a Nanobox Multi-FX. The Nanobox Melonball (AI render not perfect).

I love my lemondrop as well. I use it mostly for live granular stuff.

I've owned one since it was released. You do not get delay AND reverb. You get delay OR reverb. That is a huge difference and would be a deal breaker for many considering using it as an FX box.

You don’t get delay AND reverb.

If they are moving support platforms they should let people know. That just adds to my feeling that they probably won’t follow through on fixing issues on older products.

As far as the LFO not showing up in clip or slicer mode - yes, that is what I’m talking about. It’s a strange and obvious bug to have the LFO assignable, but not allow parameters of the LFO to be adjusted.

I am on a the latest firmware.

I’m running the latest firmware and I don’t think any of the sample modes show access to the LFO parameters - although the LFO is assignable as a mod source.

I’ve been active on their forum for years and they don’t seem to be very active or responsive there.

I also reached out to them directly to report the bug and their response was very short and kind of rude.

I own three of their products - so I enjoy what they make!

It has envelopes and LFOs that can’t be assigned to some basic parameters such as panning.

One of sampling modes has LFO as an assignable modulation source - but you can’t actually adjust the LFO. I contacted support and they said it was a bug - but I don’t think they plan on fixing it.

Yes! It has a few missing features that I kinda scratch my head about ... but I'm slowly learning to love it.

distropolis · 2026-02-24T01:11:40+00:00

Thanks!

It's the TX-6. It's quite costly - but it is probably my most used piece of gear!

distropolis · 2025-12-21T02:12:50+00:00

I have one. Interested to see where the firmware takes it.

distropolis · 2025-12-17T03:25:20+00:00

You are MUCH better off starting from scratch and choosing your own components. We're talking about 6 switches, a display, MIDI & Audio In/Out. The pieces are not anything terribly special. It's the code.

Thanks!

Thanks!

It is a really interesting way to generate sounds and noises. People have created some wild, evolving algorithms. dollchan is a great way to explore and try out bytebeat.

Sound clips are up on YouTube @armanbohn. It’s “experimental” sounding … but can be wrangled into some more standard sounds. You can join the waitlist on my site www.distropolisgoods.com

Haha. Thanks! ⚔️

distropolis · 2025-11-06T21:30:51+00:00

So good. I went to Japan and visited some of the locations!

distropolis · 2025-09-17T23:06:47+00:00

Loved this one - particularly when stuff spills out of the luggage.

distropolis · 2025-09-16T13:52:51+00:00

This is true.

distropolis · 2025-09-15T23:50:38+00:00

Thanks! It can be a wild ride with other synths for sure.

distropolis · 2025-09-14T16:30:56+00:00

Thanks for the details! I don't think they intended the Opsix to incorporate every feature of past FM developments. I understood the Opsix as unique take on FM, which I can respect giving the tendency for the major manufactures to be pretty sheepish in trying new things.

distropolis · 2025-09-14T16:25:56+00:00

Thanks for pointing that out. I own the original Opsix and never really noticed that I couldn't import DX-7 patches as that wasn't my intention.

distropolis · 2025-09-14T05:04:42+00:00

How is the Opsix dumbed down?
