    Too early to tell, seems promising.

    Couldn't really say till there are some out in the wild and people I trust or I myself get a chance to get their hands on one. There needs to be a lot more information about what it is inside and how it is controlled.

    i thought this is vst. the concept itself is pretty cool. But so far nobody really bought it to life in the vst world. Only attempts. (RP stuff i do not count as his approach to GUI design is for me not functional enough - it drives me crazy.)

    Inside is nothing but a computer runnig Linux. You can say its a VSTi in a separate box.

    I know that part, what I referring to is quality of the screens, plugs, switches, connectors and pots.

    Also how midi or midi2 or vst control is implemented.

    Sorry if I was ambiguous.

    Things like that matter to me personally almost as much as how good it sounds especially when it's just a vsti in a standalone box.

    in 3 days the VECTOR synth come im my studio . I have a lot of oldschool synth like NOVATION NOVA 1 Desktop. CLAVIA NORD RACKx2.
    RADIKAL Tec. SPECTRALIS 2 , E-mus QUASIMIDIS 309 . MOOG Mother 32 . DAMF. AKAI AX 73 YAMAHA cs1x ,DS MoPhO , ROLAND 606 307 ELKA SOLIST acces VIRUS A ,
    Last xear by first 2020 th synth MODAL COBALT8m . This izs very nice with MOOG MOther 32 and DAMF SemiModul.
    Vektor Synthese cames from YAMAHA and SEQUENCIAL end of th 70

    u say : Also how midi or midi2 or vst control is implemented ??
    thats a good point , I miss an AUdio input
    It is an little company in CZ and was released Oct. 2019 .
    Only order the vector direct by the company . They have no Caoacitity to produce for shops.
    I bought an QUASIMIDI 309 1997. five jaers later the Quasimidi Company (German Synth) closed the production and service parts. no support.
    And Jörg Schaaf Qusaimidi goes to RadikalTec.
    I think this Vector synth have no chance in future .
    I dont use SMART Phones . The most of Smartphone are verray powerfool CPUs inside .
    I think the vektor synth is a big FLOPP .
    thaths the reason wy i by it .
    2003 i By my AKAI AX 73 . muth more bether than JUNO . AKAI AX 73 its an undercover FM Synth analog .
    it was no hype of AKAI AX 73 . But look in EBAY. can u by .
    SOUND and RECORDING magazin 2020 06 . Present AKAI AX 73 1984 , no hype 2020 WOW waht for a synth better than JUNO .

    when I looked, the price was pretty up there. About 1000$ US.
    I could think of many other better options for the same money.

    way better.

    when its come ( in 3 days ) i will open the Vector synth an make fotos , so u can see what is inside.
    i am an oldschool elektronik engineer from the 70tys/ 80tys.

    940 Euro.

    An error occurred. :)

    But since it's a small company assembling it in Prague [and Edinburgh?], no wonder the price is on the hefty side. They're no Behringer with a huge factory in China. They could assemble it for 399 euro if not less, I guess.

    I also second that not having an audio input and proper big MIDI and CV/GATE I/O is quite a big omission. :/ As it is now, it looks like an ARM CPU computer with a fancy and nice looking case. I love its looks, but newest cheap Raspberry Pi 4 could run this, and they could release a VSTi for Raspberry Pi, I'm sure. :wink:

    However, it's nice to see a more or less innovative and nice looking "hardware", or rather "self-contained" synth. For that price, or a bit lower, with audio input, proper MIDI and CV/GATE, I'd maybe bite it.

    Cheers!

    VSTi for Raspberry Pi YEP thats my target .No aGATE I/O thats out of time .
    i by this syth too learn more about how to build an VST based Synth Engin on a AS ore RASP. platform .
    the first what i do is ti open the vector .
    my price for thise vector synth is 199 euro . incl tax.
    the oder think is . woh good can u learn to handle a synth an how good can intigrate in the setup an and you own creativity .
    I sure in the near future we can see GERMAN SYNTH COME BACK look like this VECTOR . it is an Beta product. the company will find sponsoring groups
