Picked up this little guy last week and have already cleared the presets and started making my own. Any tips or fun stories about Microfreaks?

Ooh nice. I really shouldn’t I already have to many “toys” but im gonna :)

I know that feeling. I was debating before I bought one but I loved the portability and size. Perfect for camping. I do find in high humidity keeping the keyboard clean improves response. I was getting random key triggers and this fixed it.

Good to know. Oh btw its out of stock on there site. But is the stellar version just a limited look? Or also different sounds and such from the “normal” mikrofreak? If its just the look that is different i dont know if i can wait till its in stock again :)

It is just a limited edition style. I do not believe anything is different for functionality.

Ah ok. But i found one in a store so im going with the stellar edition. Looks better then the standard version. I shouldnt, but i will anyway, yes.

I agree the aesthetics are better! My favorite part is the radio telescopes above the paraphonic button followed by the tiny rover above the rate/swing knob.
