http://www.korg.com/monotron . There is also a monotron duo now.

i got thee ol monotron myself =D, basic but fun for simple synth action!!

I reserved a delay at guitar center two weeks ago. I'm about to possible myself if it does not come out soon. It looks to be very similar to the old electroharmonix super space drum buy a fraction of the price.

..no vcf peak (resonance) on the monotron delay ( why such stupid decisions?

That's a lot of delay for the money. I'd like to hear how it sounds on other sources. Might be worth picking one up

My hope is that korg will sell enough stand-alone units to finally bite the bullet, and release a complete midi-equipped analog mono synth with a real keyboard and analog FXs.

Of course: you can hack monotrons/monotribes at will, and greatly expand their initial capabilities... but it's not like everybody dreams of soldering/drilling/hammering hardware stuff.

I hope everone buys this stuff so that they make some real products...
