how many sounds you want for my firebird update?

You can start with the patchdesign right now. Use Gladiator v1.2.2. You will receive the beta as soon as i implemented all features. The patches from v1.2.2 can be imported to the new version.
Save them as gls and glb files. Do NOT use your host for saving a FXB, beacuase it does only save the current patch.

If you have questions/reports ask them in the beta 1 thread here:
http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3318 286

If you have questions about sound design ask them here:

Try to avoid email traffic, since i must concentrate on programming. You can also call me on the phone +49 8031/237643.

Cheers!






You need to do 6 outstanding sounds. Previous patch-design-orgies have shown that only 15% did it to the final product. Building 6 outstanding sound can be a challenging task! It depends on your skills.

Sorry I don't own your products. Otherwise, I could do it.

Requirements:
You must own a full version of Gladiator or be a professional sound designer.

Interested but don't own Gladiator yet.

I think you guys missed the alternative - the hobbyist sound designer, who does not have to own a full version of Gladiator, but can not be paid in cash - rather in credits toward a Tone2 product.

5 to 10 bucks

what makes you/me/them a pro?

Sorry to put a negative spin on things, but this post shows me how generous the developers i work with are, or........

Gladiator is still on my wish list! & i hope for all current users this scheme pays off

what means 'Pro': a name, you can advertise your product with, like Manuel Schleis or Richard Devine. Some people buy it, because they like the stuff from this guy e.g. . This is the extra 5$.
Cons of pros ... ah probs with Pros: they usually do their routine-stuff with every synth as far as it's possible and thus sometimes potential clients don't buy a license, because they think: 'this synth sounds like xy; so i don't need it' etc.
Gladiator is a good example for this.

Ok. I increased the payment for hobby designers to $10.

An experienced sound designer creates 4 sounds per hour. This is $40 for one hour of work. I think this is a rather fair payment.


Pros are people who regularly earn money with sound design and have references to other professional projects.

so i'll stay forever as a hobbit ... thanks a lot, Marcus ... we have to build a new room now in case, you need some sun flakes



langsame Leute brauchen Hartz 4



like i said before ... and they need Prozak

Registered companies. They pay VAT from income.

is there a questionmark? I didn't ask!!!!!!!!
