Listen man, some of us out there have VERY slim budgets and simply cannot 'throw down' $1,300+ at one time for anything outside of perhaps a new computer and similarly cannot/don't buy every new synth that hits the stores... Taking into account the Minibrute is in the SUB-$600 range I'm assuming such a product is primarily aimed at folks such as myself who have very little gear due to choice firstly and price/cost secondarily. We'd all love to purchase a luxury/sports car when we go car shopping but many out there have to be realistic and decide to settle on a utilitarian fuel efficient vehicle instead. And really there's nothing WRONG about that. Not every product that comes out needs to be or even should be ultra-boutique and dominant in every way possible to any conceivable competition... You know, the old 'Everything else is piss' statement/argument...
The more options out there the better in my opinion. What's right for one may not be for another. The more analog options at affordable prices seems like only a good thing to me... I don't even know if the Minibrute will be good or not yet but it does look very interesting and if it delivers like I think it will I know it could very well be MY very 1st analog synth. I'm not saying it absolutely will be that but let's not discard new & interesting options for obviously great Moog products or items from any other company that are basically more than twice the price of the Minibrute, okay? Thanks... lulz...

If everything is as tight as it would seem after these revelations then this would be a great viable alternative to having to plunk down $3k on a tight Mac system. I guess it depends on ones own needs as always but people slamming this seems pretty short sighted. I know lot's of people who would love something like this, especially for live performances since bringing ones own personal home studio on tour wouldn't be too logical just to use their favorite VSTs.
