Hi Mark,

yeh I heard about this on the Muff Wiggler's forum and ordered one
straight away from Analog Haven and by some quirk of fate I found it had
arrived at my office last night.

First impressions are very good. It comes in it's own little branded
cardboard box, the controls are very clean and feel good, the legending
is very pro and it comes mounting screws and a Doepfer cable. No manual
though, not that one is needed but .....

can't wait to power it up and test it ;O)

David

This is a pretty cool little module. At first glance it appears to be an

"oh, reverb and delay in eurorack". But it's much more...

The Z5000 is best thought of as Another Module to provide sound shaping
in
your system, but not in the scope of being a filter. Think down the
lines
of splitting a signal _within_ your modular, adding delay or reverb to a

piece of it, then mixing things back together and on out to the mains.

Or... throw a VCA and an EG in front of it and create synch'd gated
reverb
effects on demand.

Or... Overload the analog front end, get the delay into "crunch mode"
and
just go nuts with it as an edgy bit slicer. :)

The "worst" thing you can do with this module is to think of it as an
end-loop effects device. It's a lot more than that. :)

See the sound samples up on TipTop's forum:
