I will try to post screens or videos containing the new GUI, or features as soon as possible. Maybe even in the next post
Please, do not make the same mistake as Urs heckmann of U-he, who promised the release of Zebra 3 ahead of time. And it's been more than 5 years and we have not seen a closed beta of Z3.

Beyond this, congratulations for the perseverance and goodwill that the entire Parawave team has put.

Thanks. This will not happen, it's already fully functional. At this point it's more like cleanup. Fixing a few colors here and there, adding sanity checks and a lot of testing.

And will it be a free update?

Oscillator FX, Formant Filter and all Themes are included in 1.5 for free. All Layer Effects - Glitch, Tonal Delay, Pitch Shift, MB-Saturator will follow shortly after that. They are already implemented. The thing is, we want to improve the visualization of both Glitch and MB-Saturator. Also there will be a few additional presets demonstrating the use of them. The saturator is quite a monster with ~20 parameters and can be quite complex. So it definitely needs good presets.

Now, I remember a few people requesting a balance per layer in the mixer. Here we go.

Awesome, can't wait.

Btw, that Formant Shift, I see it's placed in the same section as hardsync. Latest revisions of Virus TI also have an effect called "formant shift" applied to wavetables and the Virus manual says it's some sort of sync. I wonder if your version of Formant Shift may be somehow connected to Virus TI?

Yeah... seems like it's time to take a look at the market place

Maybe there's someone in need of some cash.

I'm glad I got it in the beginning. I always liked Rapid. It just needed a resizable GUI to make it more comfortable for me to use. I really like the different GUI flavors that will be offered with the update.

Side note: I was a stupid idiot thinking that the picture shown was an actual multi color skin. I was like, "What the hell is this guy thinking?"

I had to look at it again to realize that it was showing the different skins that will be available.

Really? Bad luck then (or good luck, depending on the perspective)...

I suppose that specific skin will be eventually requested by someone after update launch: "C'mon parawave, you tease us with a zebra skin and don't deliver?"

+1 for Zebra skin.

Thank you for making me feel a little bit better.

Had exactly the same brief WTF moment!

Me too, TBH.

That blue skin rocks, though.
