(Updated 8/11/2023)
Here is a fresh and new progress information today. We have finally finished the sample of the new product "SUSTAINOR", and we played the sound!
At the meeting, we had a discussion about the sound while actually playing the sound of the explosion.
We are planning to make a more improved board next time!We hope that everyone will be able to hear the actual sound soon.
Walking together with you all"BLUESERIES".project! Please look forward to the next information!

I want to use ROCKMAN! But the originals are expensive and I'm worried about maintenance and breakdowns. I want to use a ROCKMAN, but the original is too expensive and I am worried about maintenance and breakdowns. We have been receiving many concerns such as "I want to use ROCKMAN!
GOAT "BLUESERIES" is a project that was born to solve these problems. The "GENERATOR(DISTORTION)", "STEREO CHORUS", and "STEREO ECHO" models have been released so far.
The project members are also ROCKMAN enthusiasts, and they have been thinking about the possibility of making the ROCKMAN as easy to use as a regular pedal, and have made it possible in MADE IN JAPAN.
Compared to the original model, it is more compact and easier to use!
And now, we are challenging to reproduce "SUSTAINOR" which has been said to be impossible for a long time.
SUSTAINOR" is an all-around player that can express everything from high-gain distortion to blue sky clean sounds, and is also equipped with a noise gate.
I really want that sound! How can we make it easier to use? We are now searching for the answer!
There have been many ROCKMAN models in the past, and we believe that the GOAT "BLUESERIES" project is the only way to make this happen.

How was the last video?
Actually, Sano hadn't played the actual machine in a while, so it was quite fresh and fun.
Including the texture of distortion and the superb clean sound, I once again felt that SUSTANOR is wonderful! I was impressed once again by the quality of the distortion and the superb clean sound. Personally, I think it is a guitar sound that symbolizes the American rock of the 80s.
Now, I would like to show you the internal board of the SUSTANOR, which is currently under development!
The parts are all lined up in a narrow space! This is how the LEDs light up when the switch is turned on and off!
I hope everyone who buys this product will enjoy comparing it with the real SUSTAINOR. Or, you can enjoy playing BOSTON songs at home. I am imagining how it would be like.
BLUESERIES" project will continue to move forward together with all of you! Please look forward to the next information!

I played ROCKMAN SUSTAINOR again this time!
Unlike the DISTORTION GENERATOR, the SUSTAINOR is basically a 2-channel unit, allowing you to switch between, for example, channel 1 for distortion sounds and channel 2 for clean sounds. In addition, it is loaded with features such as a SMART GATE to suppress noise!
In particular, the clean sound provided by clean 1 (including semi-clean) and clean 2 is unique to this SUSTAINOR! We will pay special attention to this sound when developing new products!
We can't wait to see the proto!
We can't wait to see the prototype! Please look forward to our next update!

Present,SUSTAINORThe engineering team is still struggling to launch SUSTAINOR.
We have just received some very special information from the development team, and we would like to share it with you today.May 10 (GOAT day)We would like to introduce it to you today, May 10 (GOAT day)!
The other day, we told you that the circuit board was almost completed! We have already told you that the board is almost completed,
Finally! Here is a picture of the board!
What do you think? The many parts crammed into a small space can clearly show how difficult it was to develop!
We are still in the process of testing, so we can't try out the sound yet or show you everything clearly, but even just looking at these pictures, you may wonder "What kind of distortion sound does it have? What about the clean sound? But just by looking at these pictures, you can imagine the endless possibilities of what the distortion sounds like, and how it sounds clean!
The BLUESERIES project staff is very excited!
The BLUESERIES project will continue to move forward together with you! Please look forward to the next information!

(Update 5/2/2023)
We have received a report from development that the substrate for SUSTAINOR is almost ready!
In terms of normal usage, the DISTORTION GENERATOR is more of a drive, and the SUSTAINOR is positioned as a preamp.
SUSTAINOR is,compressor to adjust the input gain, and it also has a smart gate (noise gate). There are two types each of distortion and clean, and many people are soothed by the sparkling clean tone of clean 2 in particular, which has become a popular model even today.

The SUSTAINOR currently under development will be the final weapon of the "BLUESERIES" that brings together the three models released so far (GOAT GENERATOR/STEREO CHORUS/STEREO ECHO). The model will be the final weapon of the "BLUESERIES".
Moreover, since the distortion sound of the DISTORTION GENERATOR and SUSTAINOR are different from each other, it is a model that makes equipment maniacs cry because only that model can express that sound.
We are a mixture of anxiety about whether we can really achieve this and the desire to share the sound with you as soon as possible!
Please look forward to the next information!

GOAT "BLUESERIES" New Information!
Last time, we reported that we had actually disassembled the SUSTAINOR and were in the process of analyzing it..,
Now, we are struggling with pattern design!
This is not a simple task.
How can we fit so many circuits with so many functions into the size of a pedal? The fun never ends!
The project is already on its way to realization!
The "BLUESERIES" project will continue to move forward together with all of you! Please stay tuned for more information.
Please look forward to the next GOAT "BLUESERIES" information.

The next GOAT "BLUESERIES" project will be
SUSTAINOR" is coming soon!
*This is an illustration under development, specifications and design may be subject to change.
SUSTAINOR" was released in the late 1980s, and many guitarists marveled at the unique world view of its distinctive sound. The rack type is not always easy to use, and the number of existing good products is decreasing, and those who already own one say they are worried about when it will break.
So we came up with an idea.
We thought, "Everyone should be able to easily obtain the rack type. We also thought we had to make a pedal that was compact and easy for anyone to use in order to eliminate the hassle of rack equipment.
It has been more than 30 years since the release of this pedal,
Have we ever been able to reproduce the ROCKMAN SUSTAINOR in a satisfactory form?
There may have been electronic simulations in the past, but in an era when there were no circuit diagrams, it was a daunting task just to disassemble the actual product, disassemble the inside, follow the wiring from the inputs one by one to check the elements, and analyze the exact circuit.
The only person we could ask to do this was a Japanese engineer who had analyzed the GENERATOR. This time, he managed to accept our wishes and contacted us that he is currently struggling with the project.
The project is already on its way to realization!
The "BLUESERIES" project will continue to move forward together with all of you! Please keep your eyes on us.
