1. dcos have the same phase on both layers

Pssst: DCOs typically have a much smaller common denominator in their phase counter than divide down oscillators found in string machines. They are not really audibly phase locked. For example the Juno 60 has beating between two voices playing octaves.

May be. But they are also divide down architecture but probably tuned to have some difference in counters to achieve more alive character but it's still there should be difference from more chaotic vco behavior.

Might I suggest that this emu of the Pro-One have a filter CV input port as the original did at the back. This is very useful for sequencing the filter separately.

You might. We've planned to make various signals (Velocity etc.) available as CV inputs.

[nativeVS]

Adding the filter CV as a sidechain signal would be amazing.

The Lokomotiv synth is also held simple, but the sound is incredible good.
Drive and filter sections are one of the best sounding imo. Lokomotiv is also a CPU-Hog!
If this will go in the same direction (soundwise), count me in!

Interesting thought... What makes a circuit simulation slow is two things: They use a big matrix to cater for arbitrary connection between the parts and they use variable characteristics for each part.

But if one models a given circuit with given parts one can strip the process down to solving a few handy equations. There is not necessarily a difference between the two. In fact, we nowadays start out with a set of equations that give identical results.

However, even if one models that circuit perfectly in Spice it won't sound like the original hardware. There is an aspect of reality that is not present in theoretical models. We use our ears and creative intervention to make it sound right.

Nevertheless, I would fancy trying this out... Can't be too difficult to compare the optimized model to the circuit simulation and plot the difference in some graphs...

Maybe a suitably discreet/teasing example would be to graph a model of the bass drum from the 808, seeing as some people have been pleading for a U-He drum machine again recently

I just can say, that I always was waiting on is a Pro One Emu.
And Urs is doing it!
I like Mono Analogue Synths and got some real Hardware Synths in my studio.

But this little baby will be great!
Please More of Analogue Stuff!

All the time I was waiting on Zebra3 but since I knew U-HE RePro One is coming I don't wait on Zebra3!
Now I'm wating on this great full Analogue Baby!
i like Mono synths!

But the next one will be a Analogue with 6 voices, please.
I need some to play Pads.
But all the time Monos are great too.

Every year a new U-HE Analogue Mono Synth would be outstanding!!!
(Is it possible to to that?

Arp Axxe and Roland SH-5 will be next.


PS: I'm really happy that Urs is brining out the Pro One Mono Synth!!!
This is so awesome!!!



Friendly greedings from germany!!!

[zerocrossing]

Arp Axxe and Roland SH-5 will be next. :tu

Axxe? Why shoot so low? I think the market is ripe for a great 2600 emulation.

[Gosh]

although it is really none of my business to tell urs what to develop next...but wouldn't a creative sampler, an u-he granular synth, u-he's take on a physical modelled synth be much more interesting than the next analog emulation (even with the fantastic quality that we have come to expect from u-he)?

Stop it! You are making me drool
But seriously, a synth inspired by ARP would be incredibly cool.

as long as this is not going the !epoch route I'm so in! been hoping for a replacement for my zarg pro one since I had to abandon my scope cards.

There are sooo many Synths/Flasgships on the market of the kind you are requesting. I lost overview. But what we definately do yot have are a lot of analog emulations. The most interesting Synths haven´t been emulated yet. Still missing (I only mention some of the best Filters):

Synton Syrinx (best mono synth ever, stunning filter): NO
PPG 100/300 (if adeveloper is able to make a 90% emulation, he will probably be millionaire): NO
ARP 2600: NO
EDP Wasp: NO
Oberheim Two/Fourvoice: NO
RSF Kobol: NO
Elka Syntex: NO
...

What we do have:

MiniMoog: YES (many developer now...why poeple do not get bored but Moog emu Nr. 100 I don´t know)
SH-101: YES (TAL is closer to my Sh101 than Roland itself)
MS 20: YES/NO... U-he get´s there
Roland System 100: YES + I must say that Roland Filters have been covered a lot e.g. in U-he

What else do we have? Not much. Many developers have good products on the market with GUIs lookalike the Original but the Filter has nothing to do with the original.

You see, there did not really happen a lot in the last 10 years and the developers who are able to create good emulations are very rare.

You are either not familiar with the Xils Lab synths (emulations of the Synthex and the Kobol) and the Timewarp or you think that these are not good sounding. Anyway I am sure that with Zebra 3 we will get a new creative Highlight from U-He, so I am fine.
