Anytime is the time.

Anyway, an official update telling how the things are going and a new timeframe estimation would be great.

We don't dare timeframe estimations anymore.

Turns out, during the past few weeks a lot of little fixes and changes have led to sound changes. Comparing the revision that was referenced to the hardware with current ones shows some sonic differences we can't explain yet. So we have to do a whole set of comparisons with the hardware again, and find all those little under-the-hood screws that need to be adjusted to sound authentic.

We're talking subtle stuff, but when a check reveals that suddenly envelope times are off, we're simply alarmed and not sure as to how long it takes. The good thing is, since this week we have the same automated tests for Repro-5 which we have for all our other plug-ins. So it won't happen again.

Thanks for your reply Urs,

I think thats more than enough for calm down things and also "include" us in the development of repro-5.
I hope you fix things soon!

Read Urs's message and didn't figure out is it good or bad or what

i, for one, i'm sensitive to the humility and sincere will of transparency you've always shown in your answers and assume that i'm certainly not the only one...

It's a bit of extra work on our side and more testing. We should've created the automated sound testing suite much earlier, but this is an extraordinary situation with a huge scope of change. Can't wait for this to conclude either

The first 90 percent of the code accounts for the first 90 percent of the development time. The remaining 10 percent of the code accounts for the other 90 percent of the development time.
