Been a fan of all your oddity instruments for over a decade, the saga continues! Listening to you talk reminds me of what makes Sound Dust such a brilliant developer company, this device does so many things so Hobbes sounds about right LOL!

Started to laugh here and there every time you made that thing really mad. Instant purchase.

[larrychaney]

Hahaha! I laughed out loud, Thankfully there are presets.

[ABC-bmkl]

Wildly creative! Thank you for making outlandish music-making tools.

[pc]

Well damn. That ratchety cool shit capability is sweet. And you are a certifiably loony sound design genius.

[HumptyDumpty-osie]

Nutzo Professo!
What sort of childhood issues were you sorting through when putting this little virtual gadget together?

Fun stuff
Nicely done 👏🏻👏🏻

So ... itʻs a world in a plugin. Only one query -- can the Hobbes sequencers/arpeggiators be set to, say, a 31-beat loop? This, of all chaotically minded plugins available on earth, would seem to be a natural feature .... LMK

"I'm not really sure what it is".
Jesus Pendle! I just broke a rib from laughing when Woof started flailing about. What the hell is going on out there in England?
Do you realize how far over my head this thing is?
Please add a "Randomize Everything" button so I can hit that and just stare at my puter for a week.

A little constructive criticism: I’ve found with a lot of your devices, they aren’t intuitive because of the lack of labeling or descriptive iconography. Case in point: a small red dot does not scream “randomize” to me. Rather, it looks like skeuomorphic red LED status indicator for… something? A simple “dice” icon is generally accepted as the conventional language for randomization.
