Swedish reggae arranger groovebox with preset stem loops, punch-in fx, a lofi vocal mic with the appropriate fx, an onboard synth. On the one hand, if thousands of people are using the same 6 drum loops, that could get old quickly. OTOH, at a turn of the century dancehall club, that's the norm, right? You'd have 6, 8, 10 toasters take turns over the same rhythm, and each one brings their own flow on top of it.

Apparently, all the 128MB of samples can be replaced making it interesting in itself,— but man is it ugly it with that cluttered green screen showing every idle icon vs the OG with its minimalist focused UI. And unfortunately there’s still an annoyingly unnecessary 20sec cap on each sample slot.

No. It is often said limitations are inspiring, and this conveys a strong opinion on a user's attitude, at face value. That certainly send to "architect" a way of thinking and feeling when using the thing. I suppose that's what they're going for?

Teenage Engineering [@teenageengineering] formally announced the Rddim EP-40 derived from the EP-133 KO II with the sequencing, sampling and FX of the former but tuned to be more reggae, dancehall and dub when combined with the ting (the FX and mic) it focuses on sound system culture.
Whats your thoughts? Will you be buying one? Let us know in the comments.
