Honestly, for the sake of £30 (or less) open yourself up to another world of music making (on Mac or PC)
im just setting mine up now as i type
Oh Zzounds and I have very intimate relationship LOL
Interesting, I just got an email from Novation announcing that the focusrite group has acquired Sequential. Wonder what neatness will come out of this.
Waiting for backlash reacts
“novation is going to ruin SCI”
well that was unexpected. Maybe Dave finally wants to retire XD
I read into it a bit more and they say he’s going to remain in charge. No timeframe on that.
But yeah, getting his name off the front door, re-issuing the Prophet-5, and selling the company all sounds an awful lot like a setup for retirement.
I mean…I think Novation have been doing pretty well. I would defo have a Peak or Summit if finances allowed. The Iridium seems like a great idea but not looked into it much. The Tracks (and the one before it) seem popular. I love my Monostation. One of the coolest little desktop monos I’ve owned.
I’d certainly rather see them team up with Novation than disappear.
I haven’t seen Novation ruining anything so far, there will be people who will complain about it, as usual, but I don’t see anything negative out of this
We could even see prices come down on things, and newer, less expensive cool synths appear.
So has anyone with a machinedrum played with the new unofficial OS update? What’s the feeling?
My homie has and he’s in love with it.
Maybe Novation revisiting the tempest would be an interesting thing, from what i gather it already has the sound and Novation could add an element of quirkiness.
I’d love to see that too, but when i was in San Fran and visited SCI it was pretty much indicated that any further development on Tempest is a pipe dream. That came from an annoyed that i brought it up firmware programmer.
The Tempest is one of the grooveboxes I always wanted but never did…
Same! Id love to see a Novation update on it or some kind of similar collab with Sequential
Ahhh, the elusive proof that not all gear should indeed be purple.
Banned.
My wife noticed when I sit there with headphones and the polyend tracker I’m forever laughing whilst rubbing my hands together, a phenomenon not witnessed when using any of my other hardware.
