Utrecht again - not only is there the synth playground that is Kytopia and Sonar Traffic, but it seems that there is a new synthesizer project on the go. The Tasty Chips Electronics ST4 is a quad analog stereo synth, but its got a 16-bit tracker music machine. With digital oscillators, analog VCF and VCAs, it also has a sampler thrown in for good measure.
The project is on Kickstarter with just 12 days to go, they are more than half way to their goal with a variety of options, from their Sawbenth synth DIY kit (see previous Kickstarter project) to a fully constructed MT4 synth (€800)
