What's up at Plogue?

the monster that is MD

I just can't wait to hear more about the monster part, is it going to be a 6 layer FM monster? I saw a very interesting hint on David's tweet:
- User preset folder are now per product and not engine global

Will it be able to deliver the deep, dark, mysterious basses of the FB-01? Especially since there is a teaser of several alternative filters and DAC/Mix.

It's a re-creation of megarive/genesis thus the Yamaha YM2612 chip which has 4 operators

At its core yes, but you can stack a lot of stuff per voice and modulate pretty much everything.
Can't wait to show you more.

I've been harshly critical of the bloaty installers and frameworks that come with Plogue plugins, but ChipSynths (and ChipCrusher, my personal favorite) are simply products that no-one else is even close to making, so these are likely all going to be instant buys for me. Especially the C64. People who cry that $49 is too much for something as complex and unique as this, you probably don't want as customers anyway.

Thanks! All our products install our common framework yes. So each VST/AU/AAX plugin file very small, and both the UI data and DSP code is shared. So in all it actually means less space wasted, the install process does appear bloatery though I guess?

Can’t wait to get it. Made a dub techno track a few days ago inspired by the discussion in this thread using PortaFM. PortaFM has that hardware presence that few softsynths have. Hopefully MD has the same.

David,
That's awesome news. I am really hot hot hot. This boy is on fire and all that. I can imagine Coockoos enthusiasm to make a new video with that new beast of yours.

As a FM fanatic and a fan of all your plugins this sounds like Christmas, Easter and birthday party at once to me. Did I mention that I'm burning for the release... haha. But please do take your time. It should be done when it's done

Have joy and be sound.

Which probably means during plogue's Canadian time zone September 3rd. Possibly the fourth for some areas of the world?

[nichttuntun]

Oh. Thank you. I missed on that. How cool. Party!!!

[davidv@plogue]

Ahhh Sorry guys that will be tomorrow the 4th AM (New York time)
Just a little glitch in the release matrix for all the pieces to be ready ...
(in fact I just forgot Yesterday was a Canadian Holiday so its all my fault

[nichttuntun]

No problem take your time. I am the it's done when it's done type of guy.

Give us a tease, man!
