Are you sure it wont work in win7 though? any technical reasons or just support (which i get you dont want to offer)

I guess i have to try.

The specs say Windows 10. No mention of Windows 7. My guess is that it won't work on Windows 7 or, at best, won't work well.

This could very well be the beginning of the end for Windows 7 users as far as buying new synths. I mean the day is going to come eventually. It has to once Microsoft stops supporting it. But this could very well be the start.

I suspect it is the latter.
I know I use windows 10 (and Sierra on the mac).... maybe other beta users can comment which they use.

If I can just step away from all the Windows 7 complaints for a moment, I have to say that this appears to be a great synth. I jumped on the Roli discount this morning, and I can’t wait to experience the MPE love tonight! Roli/Fxpansion are almost singlehandedly moving expressive controllers into the mainstream, providing and promoting not only the hardware but the synths, the DAW, the development framework, the protocol, and the industry partnerships to make it happen. Great work on Cypher2!

Just purchased. Did anyone else notice that tremor, etch,bloom, and maul are now legacy products and are not supported anymore ?

No I didn't.... and that will be an issue for me since Etch, Bloom and Maul have been crashing Cubase since I bought them many moons ago. Fx has reproduced the crashes and promised me fixes for years..

hmmm

Anyone know if Electric Himalaya's presets are present in the factory bank, or will be available for separate purchase?

Well, here's hoping they do a "one last sale blowout" of them before taking them off the market permanently. I've had my eye on Bloom and Tremor for quite a while.

The only one you can still purchase is tremor and it is for regular price.

I'm hoping this is a long partnership with future releases of MPE-capable versions of Geist, Tremor, BFD, etc.

Very good sounding synth, demoed it tonight.

One suggestion: A "latch" option for CC#74 (brightness, y-pos) would be very useful (i.e. to make it work similar to "velocity").

EDIT: nevermind, found it ("PISlideAbsOn+")

just beginning to explore this, it's pretty nice. like the GUI, the sound... the sounds. and seems happy here (logic x, mojave os beta). will spend more time with it, but... it may be a keeper....
