Are you talking about the hardware Solaris keyboard or my Solaris plug-in for the Scope platform?

Actually the current plan is to release v2.0 for free. It’s only the DSP work that will follow that presents a bit of a challenge to fund.

Isn’t the CS-80 ring mod just using the straight sine waves out of the oscillator block? How do you have the settings for the AM section?

It seems I talked with the Sound Tower guy some time ago about this. I'll have to check my old emails.

Ah, I was looking for some type of Editor program! You are just saying to get them to add the Solaris to the SampleRobot Export file choices. This is the same as what the Translator programmer did back in 2015. I have now sent the Solaris documentation for the sample format to Sample Robot and asked...

Perhaps you could petition sample robot to create a Solaris edition like they did for the Prophet X? That would be easiest.

Hi David,
I cannot find any editor done by SampleRobot for the Prophet X. Could you provide a link?

Thanks,
John B.

To me - the list looks fine. I would suggest getting a price quote for individual items or groups of items so that if that the overall price is to steep - you can prioritize items or break them down into separate releases. I can give one example to get an idea of the pricing - to add 4 separate dup...

...The only thing I did not see on the list for me is a way to sync LFOs. This would be helpful to emulate mono LFOs like in the OBX, etc. Today the Solaris LFOs are all free running per voice.

John.

I'll add it to the list - thanks for the reminder.

Hi David, I know you are interested in improving the sample loading for the Solaris. One of the bigger issues before I get someone like SampleRobot involved would be to have a new Sample Player object that could handle multisamples. At the time we first designed the Solaris, I didn’t want to give it...

Please see the list at the bottom of my recent message about the Developer Fund Update.

Solaris Owners - please read my post in the User Feature Requests area: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=17054&p=23816#p23816

Greetings Solaris Owners! I am writing today to bring everyone up to date on our current development situation. As we are about to release the first version of a Multimode Operating System, called 2.0, I wanted to post a huge 'Thank You' to Jim Hewes, who has been laboring for over 3 & 1/2 years on ...

Yes, we are getting fairly close to a decision on the v2.0 OS release. I’ve been trying to find a way of presenting the User Interface's Multimode features in a way that is workable for what I’m thinking will be the most typical way things will get used. Of course, that means it’s going to be a bit ...

I've had a number of questions about the previous “strict” way of naming presets and banks. I thought I would post the changes that happened back in v1.4.2 just to make sure everybody was aware of them. Here’s Jim’s notes: Rules for preset files Preset files can now contain a middle part to provide ...
