The MOD Dwarf is a highly flexible audio and midi processing pedal. It is simple to use to set-up normal audio effects chains but a bit more thinking is involved adapting to the midi/cv system. I love that it is now fully open source with all system software free to view and contribute to. Mod Audio is currently working on a desktop version using the same software which will allow the best of both worlds, DAW integration and a portable live system.

I am happy with Orba 3 I will have to up grade my laptop as what I have is to old. I had a concern with the battery warnings on the outside of the box but after contacting Koala Audio I am OK and I will make sure I will dispose of Orba 3 if I finish with it and I won’t allow it to get too hot in the sun.
