Nah, I don't think he meant the instrument itself, he meant the SDK/process to build the devices, and he's probably right. I doubt anyone would argue about the Noah's quality/virtue, and it's really too bad it tanked. But the SDK itself is more than likely a modified Scope/DP with additional stuff to properly format the devices for the Noah, and might not be usable at all by 3rd party developers, like alot of internal-use software is. Development/support of the Noah probably (and sadly) stopped before they managed to wrap up it's SDK in a presentable piece of software for developers.

it really is a shame how you read others' posts. The original quote again - not because it's important, but because what you made of it is stunning :wink:
...I assume that there is no specific NOAH SDK at all - what you consider kit is most likely cludged together from it's SFP counterpart and probably one hack after the other...
and please notice that I never wrote 'THERE IS', the wrords are 'assumed', 'most likely' and 'probably'.

cheers, Tom

Astro,

it really is a shame how you read others' posts. The original quote again - not because I've any intention of continuing this any further on John's thread, but because what you made of it is typically odd :eek:
Astro, so you'd consider
... I hope there's understanding now Tom :wink:

John, we've been wondering why Creamware haven't looked at your amazing new synths such as this & Solaris 4.0 & seen them as significant enough additions to the Platform to be advertised on their website. The thinking behind this (although being mentioned a little late for this device) is that it would be beneficial to both yourself & to Creamware to be announcing & advertising such significant additions to the platform.

There needn't be any money involved as there would if Creamware's shop were involved, as it would just be good publicity for both parties. If it's something you can't discuss publically, I understand, but I just can't figure out why Creamware haven't realised that advertising & promoting the best 3rd party developements would be a great step for them & yourself, Wolf, Spacef & others.

Shroomz,

Yeah, I'm not sure why either, but they did put the Solaris in their 2004 brochure, which was nice, and very much appreciated.

cheers,
John

Hi All,

Sorry about the broken links for the Quantum Wave MP3 demos. I had moved everything to a new host, and there's quite a few links I still have to fix.

anyway - the Quantum Wave links are fixed now. Check here:

There is no Pro-One v3 Demo device at the moment, but there is an MP3 file. The MP3 is posted here:

I'll see if I can get a limited version of the device set up as a Demo device.

John I have to say I`m impressed with the Pro-One Demo.

Its awesome. Great sounds.

Exactly my type of synth, not too big, so you don`t loose overview. :lol:
very classic sound.

one question,is it posssible to sync the apreggiator to the sequencer clock?
I`ve noticed there is a clock in.
What do I have to connect? to sync the apreg to lets say cubase?


cheers

edit: sorry I have overseen the extra buttons, problem solved.
lol :)
wonderful apreg!

Some say Version 3.0 breathes new life into the Pro One. This synth has been a monster since it's birth. The update just proves that JB never forgets his followers.

In the last year I have done fewer gigs, thanks to the Hussies, and had more time for SFP. This platform could still last years w/o developers adding additional updates, I consider this extra bonus, thick simple gravy for the taters.

I am looking forward to Flexor III, Solaris hardware, and COSM. These devices and synths alone will carry me into the next year, and things just get better. I have only booked 3 gigs for the rest of the year, as my low paying jingle work keeps me happy, and very busy. With any luck some cable adds in New England will have Solaris providing the meat and potatoes.

He Who Has No Scope, Has No Hope,


BTW John, Quantum Wave Is So Deep, It has taught me how to get the most from ProWave and Solaris. Benoist's presets are downright sick.
I hope he is involved with the new hardware versions presets making.

I wake up in a cold sweat weekly with visions of Solaris dancing in my head. It has a steeper learning curve than other synths, but after 2 years of playing it, then being told it is going to hardware,....(&%)*^_. What softsynth ever created can boast that !! NONE !!
