Did anyone else see this? It's in pretty early development, but exciting! I'd love to see the Steam Deck become a M8 competitor. Not because I think Valve needs any more money, but because a M8 is so hard to buy and this would be a decent placeholder.

Or more! It's obviously got a lot more processing power than a M8. Hopefully it gets some decent synth emulations (Mutable's open source ones?) Analog sticks open up some interesting performance options, too.

The biggest drawback would be the need for some kind of external interface if you wanted to use it as a sequencer. M8's got it beat there. Mechanical keys are also nicer than the SD's buttons.

Nice! Thanks for the sum up.
