When will it be available?
Even though the first prototype (photo on the right) is already quite impressive and usable, there is still alot of work to do until it is releasable as a product. In the mainline there has to be a case design, the internal electronics, the individual Cartridges, component research…. Also a lot of software need to be written to get everything working together and make it a powerfull tracker. Below you can see main tasks (selected by importance) and their progress.
The Nerdsynth will be released once the ‘Make a Product’ progressbar is at 100% which is hopefully somwhere in 2017/2018. First there will be the launch of the Nerdseq and after that full power goes into Nerdsynth finishing!
