Hey just saw this over at Harmony Central.

Quote:

Analog to Digital Releases Four New Virtual Instruments. The Reincarnation series is a set of sample-based synths which allow the user to change the filter level with a keyboard mod wheel and select resonance levels. It can even recreate glitch-free analog filter sweeps. The first releases in the Reincarnation series emulate the Roland TB303, MC202 and Juno 106. Recreations of the Korg MS-10 and Music and More MB-33 are planned.

apparently these are the guys that did Supersaw. Anybody know anything about this?

Here is the link.

Tried Supersaw. Thought it was a really nice piece of work, but there are so many others that do the same thing, I passed on supporting it with a license purchase.

The other stuff is a Law suit begging to happen, so I'd grab those quick if that's your thing..

Man, I have a feeling that they are going to have to change the names and guis of their plugs pretty soon, as well as make no reference to the instruments they are emulating on their site. Both Roland and Korg have a history of suing folks who name and model their software products after their legendary line of electronic music instruments. ReFX and AudioRealism can testify to that. If the ReFX folks couldn't persuade Roland to license the name Juno, and likewise AudioRealism with the TB-303, I doubt that CD 303 can either. Matter of fact the "303" in their name might also be considered trademark infringement, but I can't say for sure. I think that it would be best to wait and see what happens after Roland finds out about the site before buying a product that might not exist in 6 months or so.

Can't for the life me figure how they came to the conclusion that wavetables of sampled waveforms from analog synths is in any way a real analog oscillator.

What a load of arse.

Cheers,

many links are down, screenshots are from the actual original synths and not the synthedit re creations.

im intrugued how they are making a 303 EMU with synthedit, mainly for the sequencer pattern changing section.

hmmm, not exactly 303, no sequencer in sight.

also, although I love Klang free skins (use them myself) maybe they should consider making some thereselves instead of all stock synthedit UI.

Isnt this the guy who got into it with dave at Muon? it became a big pissing match about who had the better 303 emu. maybe I am getting my 303 arguments confused...

In any case this sure looks a bit dodgy to me.
Like a moneytrap for newbies...
I wonder why it is featured on Harmony Central?
Having to change presets when you want to change harmony levels? Come on...

Wow, golly! Soundfonts wrapped in a synthedit skin!

Can't comment on the quality of the sampling, but if you can live with synthedits soundfont handling and only six levels of resonance control over a dozen or so presets, these are products of the highest pedigree.

dont know why people do that, it tripples the ram 3X

by having them external (like my free clav thing)
it saves on ram.
