I haven't seen it, but I honestly don't think I'd want a smaller version. It would get way too cramped at that size.

What about Plaits makes you feel meh? (Genuinely curious)
There are certain modes that I don't even touch because I don't know when I'd ever use them but I can't complain about it.

I'm honestly happy with just using the detuned VCOs and the drum modes with Plaits. I've used most of the others, but those have been my most used and they're great!

Yeah, I have one Plaits dedicated to either chords, Rings, or basic waves and the other just for drums. People don't talk enough about the drum sounds on it much but they are pretty great. Very Roland-y but can be tweaked to go far beyond it.

Have wanted a B&G since starting though and never got it

WOW. That MCO not only sounds great but it's super affordable (even if that is only the suggested price at the moment). Can't wait for them to start shipping. I'm really intrigued by the Megaslope but it doesn't seem like something I'd need considering I like Stages so much.
