Tone2 Warlock (synthesizer) - available now!

[Markus Krause]

Update: I sent out an update by email to all Warlock customers.

What's new (Warlock 1.0 rc3):
- Changed location for the user patches (check out the manual for details)
- doubleclick resets a knob
- ability to copy & paste patches
- 70 additonal sounds and reworked my existing ones
- Mac version did not output sound when volume envelope decay/release was set to 0
- Many small fixes

I tried making a jingle and realize I don't have a clue how this synth works, lol. I might have to just use presets. When is the manual gonna be ready?

Awesome, thank you so much!

Does creating a manual for a synth sound really fun to anyone else or is it just me?

Any plans to add an optional keyboard along the bottom and/or a way to trigger notes from a PC/Mac keyboard?

[Markus Krause]

So far not many users did request a keyboard for our synths in the past.
But I agree that it would look nice.

I am thankful for every VSTi that does NOT have such a keyboard or at least let me hide it.

Warlock natively supports ARM. I am using such a machine for development.

A demo for mac might be available next week.

And big thanks for supporting our small company!

Hi Markus, the AU version isn't installed on my Mac, I've tried re-installing but no love?

there is no AU, so... nothing for logic. disappointing.

Balls.

Not yet. Markus noted he was going to look into AU v3 to see if that helped solve his debugging issues with the AU.

I so hope so. I want this synth, but I'm mostly using Logic these days.

Hi Markus, I updated today (Mac).

The audio cuts off regularly and the only way to get it back its to change preset.

Also, I was playing and got a glassy tone randomly, no idea why, like a distortion/glassy digital sound.

Edit: Also, the presets I made and saved in Warlock do not appear since restart.

I want to buy it but I use Logic and I see this is only vst3. When will the au version be available?

If it could be hidden (for those who don't ever use it) that would good.
I think all of the other Tone2 synths have a keyboard except Gladiator, and now Warlock. It's not a big deal, as I can of course get along without it.

Where can i download the mac demo?

@Marcus
You ignored me.
You didn't answer my question.
I am taking about the time limit of the demo. Is it days ? Because i used it for couple of hours and no limitations except for save/load.
If warlock demo was like PolyM Demo from Xilslab i could live with that.(no limitations except saving and loading).

Where can i download the mac demo?

Click on the big 'DOWNLOAD' button on our website. Then click on 'download' below the Mac demo. After the download has finished double-click on the .pkg installer to install the software.

When will the AU version be available?

I did react to the request in this thread to change the location. It has changed.
You can automatically load your own sound-bank to Warlock on startup. Place UserA.t2b to "Documents\Tone2\Warlock\" (on PC) or "/Library/Application Support/Tone2/Warlock/" (on Mac) . When you select UserA as a sound-bank in Warlock your own one will be loaded.

To read the manual click on the big 'HELP' button in Warlock.

Intresting

FR:
- Copy/Paste of one Ocilator, also between Instances
- Drag and Drop of presets from browser, because it's much faster than loading presets via menu.

Copy & paste has also been requested by another user. I also would appreciate it for myself.
Not sure where to place it in the interface. Maybe rename the 'init patch' button to edit and then add a submenu there
