I’m loving this thing so far. I would love to buy this and not feel guilty. C’mon Arturia, just a quick PR statement to calm the forums and MI fans would be all it takes.
I thought this was mono? I’m seeing him play chords in demo videos now? Oh, “Paraphonic with up to 4 voices”. Does this mean you can play 4 note chords, but all run through one filter? (sorry if this has been answered up-thread.)
But even this first part seems ambiguous to me - from what has been posted by MI it would appear that MI did endorse the use or at least by being in talks with them perhaps gave that impression?
Again, not defending Arturia or their handling of it, but it looks to me more like a mistake rather than anything intentionally duplicitous.
well, this thread has been quite the rollercoaster… undoubtedly this is a really interesting synth and the MI code certainly adds to it. And then I was pleased to discover that this doesn’t make my recently invested-in Plaits redundant in any notable way. But then reading of the misrepresentation of the nature of the collab leaves an awkward taste in the mouth… not Behringer weird, but nevertheless my enthusiasm is dampened.
It’s not like there is any hurry for this, so I’ll be content to sit, wait and see how it pans out and then decide if it’s something I’m comfortable with.
Are u Sure this isnt only the license for MIs Hardware? I think she uses an MIT Open Source license for the algos.
Code (STM32F projects): MIT license.
I hear you guys, hopefully Arturia soon recognizes they did goof up. Upon reading the word colab I imagined the two parties working as a team and it boosted my interest due to both being talented and different… all that said it looks very awesome and I preordered it with great ecstasy.
Interesting from the live demo (not that promo video) it seems like the polyphonic after touch really makes up for the parphonic side of it… super lively and nice sounding the little that got played in that mode.
I wonder how the next product in the Model: series will compare to this. Think Elektron will go the route of a built in keyboard? 6 voice paraphonic (in keeping with M:S)?
Can’t help but feel like Elektron dropped the ball on not releasing a synth product along the with the M:S —considering its essentially just a simplified DT, you’d think it should take them too long to produce the next unit in that line.
TLDR, I wonder in this will serve as an impetuous for elektron to expedite their production process on the next Model box
