Supernova arpeggiator
Up until now, I haven't really spent that much time using the arpeggiator on the Supernova, but I started playing with it a week or so ago and it's surprisingly pretty powerful and convenient to use. I like how it provides many options and it considers how you might also use it in live performance with regards to sending and receiving MIDI. One thing I haven't figured out though is that there are 127 patterns in memory. The first few are the obvious up/down/pendelum, but it's not clear what the others are. Maybe they're blank programmable slots. It would be weird though if they mixed the standard arpeggiator patterns with custom patterns in the same bank.
Anyway, this video is just a test while I was experimenting with the "smart" quantizing feature to see how it works. I'm still a little fuzzy about how it behaves though.

Vermona Lancet
Lancet - A handsome new monosynth from Vermona. I would have actually preferred black and white, but this isn't so bad. Great knob choice. There's a review at musicradar.com.
Oviforma Sci + Korg MS-20
I wonder how many 80s videos there are where they didn't even bother plugging in the synth. On one hand, it makes no sense to play it live, but on the other hand, it's equally dumb to pretend.
