Not yet. Not until the basic synth engine is set in stone. Might be able to start very soon, though :-)

Here's a question:

When you switch to different filter or oscillator models, or envelopes or whatever, or the equivalent controls seen as the same parameters by the host?

For example I could see having a certain sound with filter automation or something, or a certain envelope, and wanting to try a different filter while keeping the automation or the same envelope etc. They aren't entirely different parameters between models are they?

I like it a Lot. I think the logos and the wood needs to be 'distressed' a little though. Less gloss and more worn there, or at least just more matte. But the inner area looks great to me.

I hope you can pump out a boat load of them.

+1....I actually don't like the Diva logo as to me it doesn't fit with the overall graphic scheme, but I understand why you did it like that. And I know it won't interfere with its sound of ease of use :-)

It might suit the overall vibe better if the Diva logo color was silver? (platinum might be more fitting? :) )

I think the knobs would benifit from some contrast around their edges, seperating them from the surface more. They would look more 'grab-able' that way, I think.

Yes, corresponding parameters across module borders are the same for host automation.

Note that we didn't actually scale the parameters so that they match any hardware synth. In Diva, same cutoff frequency is same cutoff frequency at the same knob position in every filter module. Which also means that we won't support synth programs stored on data cassettes.

However, the vibe doesn't get lost. To the contrary, some of our hardware synth suddenly sound dull to my ears... (we're contemplating to add "muffle" parameters though to constrain cutoff frequencies where they don't go to 20+ kHz)

Re the new skin variation - a lot better! However the logos should REALLY not look like they're just tacked on, but rather embedded into the surface.

I also agree with silver or platinum lettering for Diva logo.

No - I like the gold - leave Diva alone !wah!

That's far from gold, dude.
