Payday Treat help me decide! Decided = NanoKontrol 2
It's payday and I want to treat myself to something fun after a tough month. Will spend up to £100.
On the one hand a launchcontrol would nicely complement my launchpad mini. On the other hand it would be nice to get something which would take me out of the ipad / ableton environment that makes noise and has a sequencer.
What should I get?

Volca Sample?
Good call! I had a play with one on Saturday. It seemed like fun but the build quality seemed really poor - I got the feeling that it might not make it to the next pay day! The sample transfer via IOS seemed a bit of a faff but please tell me otherwise!
Axoloti Core, but to get it up and running you'll need a computer.
Too techie for me but thanks!
Try and track down a used korg Monotribe (they don’t make them anymore.) they are awesome and have endless possibilities and also have a basic drum sequencer as well. I have one and a volca sample and it wipes the floor with the volca
Thanks - I'll keep an eye out / look that one up!
Work eleven hours, buy the girl some flowers...
Teenage Engineering's Pocket Operators?
How about a pedal instead?
This,
Multiplied by this, equals Smooth Operator?
Should it be hardware? You need a thing with a good sequencer and great noises. This directly translates into "Caustic", maybe combined with:
Reason? I know, it's more than 100 quid. But I just got myself a license for Reason 4 which I'm planning to upgrade to 10 in 9 days. It seems to have matured quite a bit since I last used it around 12 years ago or so.
Reason mobile is on its way- so maybe better waiting for that than buying the full version if you are on a budget. It will be a while though- looking forward to it.
I'm especially looking forward to teaming it up with the - Jim Audio- groovebox app when it arrives- which is to be around Christmas according to the indications.

I’ve decided it’s an op-1. All I have to do now is find one for 100 smakeroonies
In all honesty I should be saving for a new laptop but post MacBook the idea doesn’t excite
Ah- an excellent choice- if you are looking to pick one up sold for spares or repairs- you will probably be just within budget

Or troll craigslist for a bit. You'll find something interesting in that price range if you live anywhere near a city.
Sp404 secondhand
Boutique Roland if you can find one cheap
Novation circuit
Pocket operator (the drum one that can download new sounds from microtonic)
I want one of these so bad :,(
I bought a meeblip Synth. It was either that or the Volca FM.
I did look at the Teenage engineering po32 microtonic, the software is £100 though and I don't need another drum synth. If there has been some sort of bundle deal I think it would be a no brainer.
If you can solder, this might be an item:

Indeed, that's a bit like suggesting a Moog Voyager if you can find one cheap
Probably relatively boring but I've ended up with a Korg NanoKontrol 2. Looks like it might be fun. Anyone else experienced with this?
Well played! This will give you tactile control of your apps—something that not even a Moog Voyager could give you (not on the go anyway). Hey, spend the change on something like MidiDesigner Pro to pair it with, and then YOU CONTROL THE UNIVERSE!
I haven't used the NanoKontrol 2. But I own a Nanokey Studio and my brother owns the original NanoKontrol. They're all great to use with the iPad. Korg Gadget recently added Native Mode for the Nanokontrol 2. So that's a plus if you're a Gadget user like myself. I'm actually thinking about picking up a NanoKontrol 2 at some point.
I am not familiar with Midi Designer Pro (WHASSAT GOOD FOR?), but I do have a bit of spare time for CONTROLLING THE UNIVERSE.
It only cost me £40, so the rest can go towards the Macbook Pro and OP-1 ;-)
And yes I am a Gadget (and IMS20 etc etc user, so BONUS)
