I just purchased the voice upgrade. $254 total with shipping to the US. Looking for the ribbon controller eurorack module, and of course a UDO drum machine/sampler.
Thanks! What’s not shown online is that you’ll receive a nice little metal decal for the front panel similar to the ST49 one when you get the cards. Please follow the instructions carefully
Will the sticker work on my forehead? Then I can official join the UDO cult!
As promised, instant purchase for me. Did it as soon as I read the email. Thanks for doing this @udo-audio ! The lower voice count was the only thing that gave me pause when was considering buying the 8 but the fact George said he’d most likely offer this upgrade helped overcome that. Looking forward to this.
Presumably this could also go on the rear (or not be mounted at all).
Good to hear! Yes you can do what you like with the decal
Sweet!! Will this be a thing for the 6 and/or the Gemini as well?
No, it’s for the Super 8 only. (George mentioned this explicitly in his interview with Nick Batt at Superbooth.)
I understand, I am curious if they will make similar voice expansions for the other two
I did not open my SG to check, but am pretty sure there are no more free voicecard slots.
I think the S8 upgrade was from the start envisioned because I think both synths share the same motherboard, S8 being simply sold with two empty slots
Some opened S6 pictures were posted some time ago and I’m pretty sure its motherboard did not have more voicecard slot free either.
So I wouldn’t bet on more voices for S6 and SG.
