GR-Mega 

Hands up who has one of these on pre-order and keeps watching this video over and over again in excitement and anticipation 🙋🏼‍♂

20 voice polyphony with multitimbral mode AND multi outs. This thing will be a powerhouse of a synth. Awesome!!!

Class compliant 8-channel audio interfaces can be hooked up to it for multi-outputs. It has a built in HDMI port plus you can connect a keyboard to it... if you feel the nedd for a bigger screen and more buttons. I find that kind of thoughtful, especially if you want to a lot of utility work on your library or samples.

I just gotta say that the customer service team at Tasty is top notch and replies very quickly and professionally

THIS, manufacturers, THIS is what we want. Not another VA, not another ridiculously crippled elektron box - REAL features, amazing interface, groundbreaking creative possibilities (I can hear ebay listings for overpriced modular crap being typed up as I post). Well done Tasty Chips.

Yes! You guys were not sleeping. This is a major release. The features kept on coming. The idea of working on this really appeals. Bravo!!

holy crap that fader for sample editing is the best thing ever. reminds me of my mpcs and octrack

Ok, I said no more synths ever. What I meant is no more after this one ;-)

I'm sad that I sold my GR1 in a moment of weakness. I miss it a lot. The sound quality was outstanding and I made some great sounds with it. So I think it's time to return to the fold and get this

Got my preorder in and looking forward to this! I’m particularly excited to have the Paulstretch mode available in hardware.

lets gooo I can hardly wait. This is the best time for boutique flagships ever

That tape scan with the fader looks fun.

It's going to be interesting to see this and the Torso S-4 duke it out for granular synth superiority in 2024. The price on the GR-MEGA definitely gives it a leg up in value for the money!

Hello from Estonia dear. Tasty Chips! I think your system will be dream synth of the all last years! Congratulations!🎉

Looks like I’m about to be single

Screw that Waldorf Iridium... Need this in my life asap 💛💛💛

This does everything I wanted my GR-1 to do

Great work!

This is very interesting ... very inviting.

looks like great fun and sounds fantastic!

GR Mega + Aodyo Omega Phi + Vector. Cant wait

Tasty af. Excellent price. Really looking forward to an in-depth video manual to this beauty.

1:40 a TS cable for a balanced connection 😂 But overall nice piece of equipment

pre-order is in... now, I have to be patient :) Looks and sounds 100% ace

I’m very excited! 😁😁😁 This will be the sampling engine to beat! Perfect for sampling and recreating sounds!! …And was that an HDMI port on the back??? I’m saving up!

Looks thrilling and out of this world 🤟😎🛸

This is a dream instrument for me. There is just no way I could afford it. One of those things which makes me wish I were a synth influencer, so you would just send me one, free. 😀There is no question tho, this thing is truly MEGA!

Yes I want this so bad, very badly

Nice synth, can't wait for them to drop it with a half-finished OS that never gets updated.

Gosh, looks great!

This looks like a hell of a lot of fun for my ears!

Preordered one, and I cannot help, it feels so complete right 😊

Great demo

Amazing video of an even more amazing machine.

Damn. Drool commenced. F""n sweet!

Looks fresh.

Oh man. This looks like it’s going to be FUUUUUNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!

Woot! This is awesome

great promo..............wishing you well with this offering................

Looks dope !

Very nice….Impressive!

Incredible work 🔥❄🔥

Very cool. When this gets some demos I might invest.

Modulation Matrix low key looks hard af

Tasty indeed!

Wonder why they didn't use that awesome title logo on the actual machine?

FINALLY!!! Mach 5 in actual Hardware!! I want this!!

damn, now that's real digital candy for the 21st century

Yeah! amazing!

Sick! Lovin it.

SICK AS !!

This looks incredible. Almost like a hadware sylenth or nexus

That’s a beauty 👌👏

Got my preorder in just now :)

this looks like it might finally be something new to fill the octatrack niche

First thought: oh! Its only 605 euro, thats nice .. reading further .. oh its one third of the price, nevermind.

I knew there was a reason I didn’t buy an Iridium.

Can the slider be used as some kind of sound morpher? Like on the Octatrack where you assign different modulation amounts on two sides of the slider.

wow! really nice!

Does it finally feature quasmatic interlopers and double freonic kinky pinky pinkos? ?? 🤔

BASED

Yes! I want this!

Looks good

we all need a big groovebox :)

ayy a stereo in, finally.

I struggle to figure out the relevance of “5000 grains per voice”. Maybe someone can clear this up for me because I’ve seen grain count advertised for a handful of granular hardware synths lately. If i understand correctly, granular synthesis utilizes a sample essentially held under a microscope (grains) and scrubbed through etc. I assume more is good and morer is gooder, but how does grain count relate to variable sizes of sample files? So what my brain tells me is this, granular synth voice = sample = 5000 grains? Does this just mean no matter how large my file size is I get 5000 grains of density?

Question about tape scrubbing: are we seeing slew or latency when scrubbing tape?

Tasty!

Nice !!!

I have been saying this for years. Nexus needs to listen to me. They need to make a hardware version of thier Nexus vst asap.

mmmn tasty!

Jemig de pemig hee 😮

Nice. But I'll wait for the keyboard version.

My GAS will destroy me (edit: i forgot to also mention this thing is amazing)

wow, looking forward to see the 4 track timb. mode in action. hope that there won't be too much menu diving and that the gr-mega is suitable for live and improvisations. anyway, can it resampling entire audio in realtime without stopping the playheads?

Can it control tape head position per voice with poly AT / MIDI expression?

It’s going to be a long wait till June… 😅

Can’t wait!

Looks like the OG Ohm 64.

niiiice!!!

Does this have real-time processing of external audio? As in feed audio to an input, through granular fx, and output it back into your daw. Or do you have to record the audio to the machine first, and only then apply granular processing? I'm just wondering whether it has any uses as an FX unit, or if it's strictly a synthesizer. Looks amazing either way!

I see it's gone from 11 to 20 voices. What other substantial improvements over GR-1 ? I'm not intimately familiar with the original but have always been moderately interested in getting one. Probably a good time to buy a used GR-1 when this thing is available, unless it's a night and day difference, worth the extra buckaroos.

Oh yessssss.

Many strong features, however, the most important, it's sound, is still something I haven't heard -in conjunction with how features are utilized to make music/sound. Is there a video i'm missing which shows it doing its thing?

drool

Silver or black, silver or black? hmm...

Will it be controllable via MPE? Like with an Expressive-E Osmose?

I want it

If this had more IO it would be totally killer. The 1010music BlackBox is the better option in that regard.

Hi , could you give me information , if i order and pay GR-Mega from your website shop tommorow , how long i will have to wait to receive it in Sweden or Finland ? and does GR MEGA have real time stretch smooth uninterrupted quality performance like SERATO Sampler for example , and then something like in Multiposition mode could i apply and lock memorize each different desired grain position and parameters to each different key across midi keyboard so each key on keyboard would represent different desired grain or sample position and different parameters lock instead of having it playing in only Random positioning mode with only one same parameters like in GR=1 ? plus i would also need to when in that potential should i call it my imaginary Multiposition keyboard mode to select desired key or position on midi keyboard and then switch to Singleposition mode and have that certain key grain sample position with own parameters across all midi keyboard , and have posibility to switch or select that certain sample grain to be realtime stretched or not . and then again go back to Multiposition keyboard mode and select another key with different grain position on keyboard and go again to Singleposition keyboard mode ? I do have first version GR-1 and i like it but i noticed that its kind of limited and half way so i would need those parameters or algorithms mentioned above to be available into this new MEGA model. If you can help me with further information

Damn. Used to never want a hardware synth again

This was mean, man! My poor Paypal account 😢 done and dusted 👍😁

yeeee !

mmm...tasty.

Hi there, is there a way of loading in different tuning systems / microtonal tuning files?

Why do this to me?????

I need this with my asm

Very interesting. Do you have a retailer in Canada?

This one is look awesome.. and this one could make me go "Offgrid". or as it seem "Hybrid" how much does it cost ??

Does the GR1 just have one of the megas 5 engines? It's a shame you can only have 4 layers out it could be an amazing sampler - would be good if you could split the voices how you like and have more layers. Could be like an akai but granular!
