There was a reason I asked if your DATA folder was on an external drive - but, you let that go...

Switching between presets whenever there is sound still playing is just a bad idea, and something I have incorporated into my workflow from the very early times... Again, it is just impatience...

Wusikstation is still a decent instrument, not a dead one as you so frequently say. And it shares the same soundsets with Wusik 4000/8000 - which I am still waiting to see what it turns into.

Consider it "dead, but dreaming", and the Old Ones shall annihilate us all... :D
Sorry, I wasn't ignoring it, I never saw it. No, the DATA was not on an external drive. It's moments of dementia had no rhyme, reason or even consistency to it. It did happen much less once I stripped many of the sound banks from it that I wasn't using anyway. And the program change 'popping' would happen after I stopped playing the last note. Like I said I just found I had to wait longer (a couple of seconds at most) before changing the program. It wasn't a deal breaker for me. I considered that annoying only. (BTW, the sets I used most were yours, Vera's and HG Fortune's.)
Thing is, I didn't click with 4000 character EXCEPT that the program changes did change smooth. Just wish he went back and did the same thing to the Station.
There are people here that have had much worse problems than I did.
My standpoint here is one of deductive logic. EVE is dated and 32 bit.
As William pointed out 8000 is meant to replace 4000 and WusikStation.
8000 is beta. And I remember a promise for the HQ Piano that without notice suddenly became an option to pay for. This type of practices, tell me to wait until he has it all together before even considering a purchase.

If you already have them and they're working for you, great.
My biggest disappointment came from watching William devalue them and making them worthless.
And then pushing the price up and down like an unstable stock market.
For a someone just thinking about buying a Wusik Product the first time, they're better off waiting until he has his projected synth in full release. I would even venture to say it's unwise to be an 'early adopter' on that.

Pardon; If I hadn't seen someone addressing me, It's because KVR can take too much of my playing/recording time if I let it. And some companies (or non-companies) can have that effect too. Even a good synth becomes worthless if we start spending more time getting it to work than working with it.

I'm going to keep repeating this though:
There's an auction you can bid on the full bundle of past and future Wusik products.
And all of your purchase price goes to help a Children's Fund.
If you really want it, that is the best deal you're going to get on it right now.

EVE was created 50% by me, and 50% by Luigi, when we had a company together called DashSignature, which was the result of a company I created alone, called DashSynthesis. We teamed together late with DashSynthesis and created DashSignature. Later I closed DashSynthesis and sold DashSignature to him, and he created LiqihSynth in between. After some time he sold back EVE to me. The name EVE was created by Klaus's wife from Back In Time Records (BITR), a sampling company. They also supplied almost all sounds to EVE. After I sold the company, DashSignature, I created some bank of sounds for EVE called Famous Keys. After some time I talked with Luigi if I could create a new company called Wusik and he was Ok with it. We even talked about using a similar format for samples, and he was also Ok with it. We were friends for a long time, and we are still friends, but we don't talk so often now. I visited him at one time, in Italy, when I sold the company to him.

Now, as for Wusik 8000, it IS released, but I named it Beta, but it is an official release, I just didn't make a big fuss about it. Is like the Fritzing PCB program, which has been Beta for YEARS. :hihi: Wusik 4000 is also been updated, so we never did a bait-and-switch scheme, shame on people who said we did, and I won't battle any remarks on that subject, you will discuss this alone if you wish to (I have better things to do with my life than feed trolls here)...

Wusik Station is a legacy product, but it works, so it haven't "disappeared". Is just that the idea for Wusik 4000 & 8000 is to slowly replace it. But this could change without further notice.

Again, I have said this for years and years, Wusik is NOT A COMPANY. Is just me, sitting in front of a computer, at home, trying to make a living out of it, and trying to support my wife and kid. And as someone said, I do have a Ferrari to support. :lol: ...... that was a joke, and we know it, good one btw. People think that devs are full with money, and that's just not true. The only reason I could keep developing for 15 years is that I live in Brazil, and have a simple life. Otherwise, I would be doing something else. :dog:

Anyway, as people said, try the demonstration version of Wusik Station and Wusik 4000, and see what we have done. Some love, some hate, but that's the way things are...

Best Regards, WilliamK

Weird....

Like I said, V7 uses an .xml file to store the location of your DATA folder. So there is no way that should be forgotten unless you had an external drive and it somehow got powered down and then when it powered back up the drive letter assignments changed.

Or, the .xml file somehow got deleted...

Personally, I have 4 different installs of Wusikstation - Prometheus from dBu, Anomaly, Wusik V6 and Wusik V7 - they all run fine and the only time they stepped over each other was after the initial install of all of them and I had to sort out the default DATA folders for the Wusik Engine instruments (Prometheus and Anomaly) via the registry.

I have had this, or something like it, over Windows XP, Vista and now Windows 8.

And I use the Anomaly DATA folder to share sound sources between Anomaly, Dimension Pro, Rapture, Kontakt V2 and Absynth V3 and V4.

All without any problems....

It was acknowledged as a known problem by the developer that sometimes happened, like to me and others. Like as been pointed out, some people had more problems than that which I never encountered. At least it was acknowledged before being discarded as is. It was around that time that many of the threads and comments on that forum were suddenly removed by the developer/subforum mod/admin.
WStation is something, that if you have and it works, you should keep it. Especially since you would be lucky to get $10-$15.00 selling it secondhand. It's just no longer worth the asking price it's being put up for now. A direct cause and effect by the developers changing the prices on it constantly and claiming every price change is a sale. (Of course it is, it's not being given away).

We know that Wusik 4000/8000 is the same product. And that it is projected to replace the Wusik Station which is no longer supported. That makes it pretty simple and clear. Wait for Wusik 8000 to be officially released and start checking it out then after those bugs get worked out and all components are included.

Again, if you really want the whole enchilada bundle, make a bid in the charity auction.
Of course, only the kids get the money then. But is that really a problem?

Same thing happened here a few times. Not sure why.

Also, does anyone get any kind of CPU spiking with 4000? DP8 seems to do funny things with it here... :?

A couple of days later I revisit this thread, and you are still at it with the same points?

I cringe when I see the charity backing. Bad mouthing Wusik for all it is worth, trying to hurt their business, the Wusik devs of course don't have any family or children to take care of most problaby not huh?

You are not helping the situation any.

You don't need to make people choose between one or the other... :?

The choice I offered is one for considering the pocketbook first.
The second choice is merely an assuaging of the first.

I guess I would have missed the thread if you hadn't bumped it back up to the top.

Are you helping the situtation?

:lol: Is there really a situation to be helped?

You crabbed at me about supposedly bumping this thread. And now you do it.

You believe I'm bad-mouthing the company when in fact, I'm only stating the facts experienced by a number of us.

I liked the instruments mostly. Experience has taught me to be cautious in purchasing is all.
And I'm not saying I wouldn't purchase its one product in the future,
I'm just saying I'll wait for its projections of it to manifest first before deciding to or not.

And buying it in the charity, is about the charity, not the products or the business.
In that regard, it comes down to helping one kid or many.
