So there's this which is pretty cool.

Apparently an LFO is in the works too?
I don't have one of these but they look pretty spiffy///

Some really inventive stuff going on with those!

I like how they haven't just let it lie with the original product line.
I'd be curious to know the demographics of who's buying and using these. They seem perfect for kids to pick up synthesis and learn the building blocks but I can see adults being more the users.
If it is kids though, the addition of these new modules, particularly the USB one will work great with the possibility of tinkering with sequencers on a computer and running into the LittleBits.

I mean I'll never buy one of these myself but I'm super stoked that they exist.

I have one of these. My wife gave it to me as a Christmas gift to play with and teach my kids about both synthesis and electronics. It's a lot of fun, and I was very pleased to see the MIDI and USB modules coming out.

Its not just music... Its everything electronics can do..

Quite expensive tough if you want to expand... But looks like a lot of fun..

FANTASIC! Now I can finally really play my Korg LittleBits synth. The tiny keyboard is cute, but it's a bit of a pain to use. Now that I can synch a midi keyboard, I can really wail! Thanks Korg and Littlebits!

Extraordinary concept - well done to Korg. Boy are the trailblazing on all fronts these days!
