Looks like Nymphes format/size and apparently being revealed at Superbooth:


Announced today, Dreadbox’s Dysmetria aims to make gritty analogue grooves more accessible at a price point in reach of beginners on a budget.
Stumbled across this on Music Radar and thought some might be interested. Cheers.

Those screw locations sure look convenient. Possibly Eurorackable?

DIY Kit available now
https://www.dreadbox-fx.com/product/dysmetria-diy-kit/

Any demos out yet ?

On the subject of Dreadbox, this new pedal also looks great, and some great playing here too :



It also seems to have CV inputs, very unusually for this sort of thing, so maybe good for synths , too :

It is only Eurorackable it seems

Wrong, its in both Desktop and Eurorack formats.

"It can be used as a Desktop or a Eurorack synthesizer"

It comes as kit in the form of eurorack module that can be powered also by USB.
The enclosure in the photo is not included

If it is similar to their previous diy kits (which it likely is): the cardboard box that comes with the kit can be used as a case. So no dedicated case is needed to use it as a desktop synth, unless you want something more fancy.

That was only with the Hades and Erebus kits.
After that the boxes were normal cardboard boxes and could not be used for that, at least no more than any other cardboard box

Very hot and bubbly sound ! Sounds like something cooking in the oven.

ok, so not :(

It was a nice idea to make these boxes into ready-to-use diy cases.

According to the video they are planning a whole range of them so im sure they will offer also the metal enclosure separately.

Also, a relatively big news is that they're bringing the Erebus and Hades back!
Exactly the same as the OG versions, only in eurorack format

Nice (euro Erebus).

Dammit, guys! I've butcher more kits/repairs than I can count. I can't solder for crap, so I have to wait for another builder to make one of these so I can buy it. I had to do that with Antiphon and not only did it take forever to happen, but because it was stupid limited edition, I had to pay a premium for it.

I'm definitely interested in checking this out! It looks like it has a lot of potential for creating some really cool sounds.

Dreadbox have DIY kits for Hades and Erebus coming in July.
They're also working on kits for the Nyx and Abyss.

Yeah. I'm into the Erebus and Nyx, myself, and looking forward to these eurorackable versions.

I ordered one. A good test of my soldering skills. Should be a fun build. Will post when received.

an Abyss in kit form is the biggest news of the show for me

where did he say Abyss? I missed that part.
If true is great news but somehow i really doubt it

towards the end

It makes a lot of sense to offer the Abyss as a DIY kit if you think about. The original was mainly through the hole and took a lot of time to build, which I recall was the reason they discontinued it. The number of man hours involved in construction was also the reason for the relatively high price which hurt sales at the time. What better way to recoup the R and D costs than to sell a kit version and outsource the donkey work to the consumer? The kit would contain the firmware chip and other SMD parts on the controller board leaving the user to build the voices and effects. I think it would be a pretty fun and reasonably straightforward build, far easier than the Deckards Dream for example. The Abyss boards are nicely laid out with a low part count. I really hope this happens as the Abyss 2 when/if it happens will be a very different beast indeed.

I'm not sure how easy it would be for them to turn it into a relatively easy kit to build and fit it in a more conventional box. Maybe it would be a simplified version, who knows. The price will be also very interesting.
I had the impression that did not have any SMD. But maybe the kit has.

On my two Abyss, both are through-hole,
but the one with the factory repaired PSU (to repair pitch issues)
has a SMD daughterboard.

I want Murmux in a kit form

Time to put my soldering skills to the test. Hoping for an Olympic sized gold medal rather than a Greek tragedy



BTW, I did see that there is someone selling an already built Dysmetria on Reverb.

Dreadbox should go back to making those bigger/chunky desktop modules like the original Murmux etc, those looked great and sounded superb. These little flat boxes are so boring to me.

I'm sure right now there are just trying to get through the supply chain shortages by selling these kits.
