Maybe you know the feeling of still being undecided and fully committed to buy new gear. For some time now this is me with the m8. Buying just new gear is not my thing actually. It took me 4 years to buy an op-z and I am absolutely happy with it. It took me a while though to figure out why. Because I make music mostly in reaper. But the op-z is just so beautifully transportable. But it does have some drawbacks, if one wants to make music on the way, it’s great, producing the whole song, not so much - you probably know the term dawless. Well, I was looking for “it”. Tried the polyend tracker/+ and I like the tracker mechanism, but the polyend is just not as portable as one wishes for. Now I am trying myself on a headless m8 and it’s nice. Definitely my go to, IF it would be purchasable in Thomann… I am just scared of the import taxes from USA to EU. Anyone here ordered one to the EU and can tell about any taxes?
Anyway, thanks for moderating this small community.
---------- update Well I was one of the lucky ones, who could get their hands on the preorder button fast enough. So in 2 months time I should have my m8 :D

I‘ve ordered an M8 to Germany last year, the import fees were 147.17€. The whole process was handled by DHL, so I just had to pay that fee online and got the package a day later or so.
Oh, that’s serious money on top! Thanks, that’s exactly what I needed to know. Guess this pushes me back for a while. Until I am able to buy one on eBay.
Good luck getting one! They sell out very quickly.

Hey, thanks for this much information. I need to dig through that one by one.
The m8 seems to be capable of exporting the stems directly into the SD card which would makes mastering a breeze. The process with the opz is Time consuming: recording pattern by pattern, track by track ;(
I’ll check out the liven Boxen right away, thanks for the Intel!
