>Hey guys,
>peace from Newcastle, NSW Australia.
>My good pal J. Wilson has a D1000 that he runs with his Swarmatron and Materia…damn near blows my mind, every time!
>We had a session late last year running it with an 0-Coast, Mescaline and Juno 60. The tonality of the D1000 and it’s sensibility is FUCKING incredible!!! So truly unique. Like it has it’s own stories to tell.
>I need one in my life.
No you don't.
> Any chance you will be making the D1000 again or would consider a commission?
Sorry. It had a lot of disadvantages: it was noisy, difficult to use, shipping was a nuisance thanks to the packaging (lot of wasted space in the toolbox). The cymbal circuit didn't work quite as expected. The PC board was difficult to assemble because we tried to cram too much into a given space.
Not that it matters much. We can't make it anymore because the toggle switch used in the sequencer is no longer available. And other switches are a bit too big.
> Have been keeping an eye out second hand, one briefly popped up the other day, 5K AUD. Ouch!
Have to admit, that's hilarious. For years people screamed at us about how "expensive" it was. And they didn't like the form factor or this or that. So we discontinued it and made a BETTER one. Now people are screeching for the old one---and paying too much for it.
> Let me know, totally understand and respect if you have moved on.
Please support us and buy a D-2000 instead. It's quieter and more flexible and and easier to use. You'll thank us later.
