I just got my first hardware synth about a month ago. MicroFreak. It’s so fun. I saw this when it came out and was super tempted to get one, even though I knew getting hardware was a can of worms I probably shouldn’t open :) Then the Stellar Edition was announced and I instantly pre-ordered it. I don’t regret it one bit and it scratches the hardware itch well enough that I don’t feel tempted to go down the rabbit hole. I might want a drum machine to go with it at some point but I’ve got a BeatStep Pro controlling VSTs for now.
