a new u-he website is on the way!

[Urs]

Hey Urs,

By any chance is one of those site updates going to be that Zebra set Nick Moritz and I did for you a while back?

Absolutely! Once the user area works fluid, we'll pop out a bunch of overdue releases...

Liking the site, Urs. But that photo gallery...The 800DV... it's too new, can't be. Did you use some Voodoo to obtain it?

The Voodoo was to just wait until it came up. It's in near mint condition. The wood has some tear and wear, some green caps are missing on 3 knobs... and the price was hilarious ( beyond Andro, JP-6...)

The Mini isn't mine actually. It was sent over by a customer who wants to ensure that future algorithms are tested against the best sounding Mini in his collection.

Regarding IE6, I believe it is only responsible for about 2-4% of internet traffic atm. As a web developer myself, I know certain hacks have to be made to ensure cross-browser compatibility, but it can be such a pain!

Hehehe, we have a lot of IE6 on the server. They try to set up accounts on an old phpBB...

Regarding the green stars... I simply like them. I'm happy to try something new though.

About the yellow stars in the image maps - we tried a lot (target rings, circles, everything). I truely believe that the yellow stars offer the best visual hint, both on Zebra's shades of grey and Mfm/Filterscape's blue/green schemes.

We'll see... the pics are easily exchanged if someone comes up with a great idea...

Looks absolutly great! Specially the gearporn photo show

So spell it it gearp0rn and be done with it...

Or more subtle: gearotics

[Urs]

hehe... yeah...

So, guys at MailChimp woke up and processed my request for a plan. So we sent the missing few thousand mails... All customers who had ever subscribed to product news should now have the newsletter. This new batch is without typo in the link

Cheers,

Urs

Lovely new website. Well done Urs and comrades. Can I have a u-he T-shirt? I've just rebuilt my recording studio, actually, and seem to have vaporized Birmingham, England. Oh well, that's SPL...

Chimpmonkey email arrived here too.

Liking the new site btw, the splashes of color are nice but the stars are a bit much!

New site is great.

I'd like to request (although too late for me) that after registering/activation the password isn't sent back in the email. Plaintext passwords should never exist anywhere, and certainly not in emails - I'll assume that they're not stored on the server in this way, but the email was slightly disconcerting.

I'm looking forward to see what's new

Quick fix: Password should be *** now in activation mail...

Also, removed green stars from lists on right hand side (but kept them for feature lists)

Will be there new soundsets in the near future? (you know what I mean )
Because I've decided to delete "it" from my website. Am I right?

Thanks,
Your Nicky

Yep, there' going to be a new soundset soon! It took us a very long time to set up the newsletter and everything in an integrated system. Once this is done we'll release updates and soundbanks!
