Grain Bastard Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 crosses fingers for the long rumored op1 update Yes an OP-1 update would be cool. I take heart by the fact that their site for the OP-1 lists all the existing synths, envelopes and fx but states that 'future editions of these will be made available via software updates' meaning that they are still planning to release at least one more update. OP-1 updates are cool. Sketch, Dbox & Dsynth are possibly my most used modules at present and they weren't present when i got my OP. NAMM is a good place to release an update as it should generate some interest in their booth, should they have no new products to announce.

juiceciuj Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 they also did a tie in with operator-1.com (op1 user forum) last summer asking for preset submissions that would be implemented over the stock presets in a future update. never heard anything after that. i think submissions ended in august? last year? maybe the submissions were all awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't find the post i saw it on (probably matrix synth) - I'll try and find the link Edit - got it http://www.matrixsynth.com/2016/01/namm-rumor-new-yamaha-montage-awm2-fm-x.html Might be a hoax though as it says rumour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAAAh Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 on the lookout for standalone groovebox/sequencer type stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chim Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 first leak : new analog poly synth from korg Fuck me, that looks like a purchase. edit: More info and pics. It's a 4-voice poly. Some effects included. Gearslutz boutique snobs are still debating this but it looks like we're getting actual analog VCO's, though they'll be stabilized by some voodoo magic. Estimated price tag? $500!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 it's good to see that it has an oscilloscope screen! everyone should have an analog oscilloscope actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QQQ Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I knew of mellotrons but I'd never read up on them. I did not know they worked on tape loops. interesting. would like to see what Waldorf do with theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modey Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 in the mellotron they're not actually loops; they're 8-second linear lengths of tape that rewind when the key is released.. super mechanical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bitroast Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 looking forward to more demo videos like this one. the enthusiasm is palpable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 in the mellotron they're not actually loops; they're 8-second linear lengths of tape that rewind when the key is released.. super mechanicalReally ?! I'd always assumed they *were* looped bits of tapes and it had various circular loops for each of the instruments. Every day is a school day here !

modey Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 yeah it's a pretty bizarre concept, prone to failure. It does mean though that the sounds can have a proper attack phase, which is obviously essential for some of the sounds present on a mellotron. I'm guessing though that the new waldorf box won't be limited to the 8-second sounds used in the mellotron. I'm pretty keen to hear it actually, but having said that, my recently purchased JV1010 came with a "Keyboards of the 60s & 70s" expansion, which contains accurate-enough mellotron choir and strings reproductions (the only mellotron sounds I care about).. so I doubt I'd buy one.
