    Sounds like a cool gig. Too bad it's in Boston. Think they'd let me telecommute?


    All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

    Didn't someone from the forum get a job a while back. Is he still doing it?

    Yeah, it was one of the guys who was making the mods for SONAR.  He designed an extra toolbar.  The name escapes me.

    Maybe they can entice Rene Ceballos and/or Chad into coming back.

    I wish so too, Tom.  But it seems like Cake is at least still working on synths.  That is good news.

    I'd do it in a heartbeat and move to Boston, but I fall short on one of the job criteria....

    I wish they would port Dim Pro to AAX.  I'd consider buying it... again.

    What? You won't complain that it should be a free upgrade?
     
    You must be mistaking this for another forum.

    Agreed.  I'd like to see a return to innovation and creativity.  It'd be unfair to call the last few years a recycling period, but there were some squandered opportunities along the way (my opinion).
     
    I'm certainly not the most savvy businessman in this kind of economic climate.  I'd be thrilled, though, with sensing a clear direction forward.

    What disappoints me the most is that Cakewalk might have convinced Roland to let them resurrect the D50 as a virtual instrument when they had the opportunity.  That will probably never happen now.  Such a shame ... and I suspect Korg has been having a nice ROI on its M1 and Wavestation software.

    And here I thought that was an idea that *I* may like, but might not have a broad appeal among the undercurrents of me-too synths and Presets 'R' Us.  I've experimented with emulations of the SCI Six Trak, Poly 800, and Synthi Hi-Fli, for example.  And that's strictly due to their quirky natures and off-the-beaten-path sound results.
     
    I want to thank you for the hidden inspiration in that comment.  In the past, I've mapped out several ways to simulate L/A synthesis in Rapture (perhaps Dimension Pro, as well).  Not as a VST, but a great direction to pursue as an expansion pack.
     
    It would be much easier with an actual hardware D50 to A/B to, or sample outright.  But not impossible, and it certainly wouldn't have to be limited to the exact original architecture and set of "partials".

    So now that emulations of Roland products are off the table, I wonder what Gibson owns that might become a virtual instrument. A virtual Les Paul, perhaps? Nah, probably not. They've never been a synthesizer company, but they do own Wurlitzer and Baldwin.


    All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

    How about a knock your socks off, never been done this good Wurly emulation?  Sure, there's a gazillion of them out there but if Gibson owns it . . . . . .
    I have to say, I love my Wurlitzer Electronic Piano (the real one) but it is so limited. Oh, and heavy!

    How about some faithful reproductions of the classic & rare Maestro effects line?  Hire Tom Oberheim as a consultant.
     
    They've never been a synthesizer company

    I think anyone still left from the dark period of Moog's history would attest to that.
