Elecktroid now discontinued

[audiospillage]

Hi all,

Possibly not the shock of the year but today we will officially discontinue Elecktroid. It's a bit of a sad day as we had high hopes for the product and some of the sequencer features we developed never made it into a commercial release.

We'll continue to support current users with anything they require.

On the up side we can focus on updates to DrumSpillage!

drumspillage getting more attention is a silver lining. RIP Elektroid.

hoping drumspillage new features are going well.

Well, I for one am gutted. Really like Electroid. Oh well.

Sorry about that perpetual3. Realistically we don't have the resources to give it the same treatment DrumSpillage is getting with M1 updates and a bigger refresh next year.

Maybe one day we can revisit the drum machine concept though.

A bit gutted myself about Elecktroid, but I'm very happy DS2 is moving forward. It's still a huge net win.

Would adding sample layering to DrumSpillage be within scope of its concept? Or is that getting away?

i'd be content with just a VST3 version

For how long

Apple Silicon version of DS2 is at release candidate now. It's AU only still.

VST3 next year.

Yeah the AU goes fine, in Ableton Live 11.
But i write in Cubase. I've had a major upset in the past with project recall using third-party AU to VST adapters in projects, so I am shy to go there again. Alas i've stopped using DrumSpillage, which is very sad because no matter how many drum synths i own i just can't get the same control and tightness.

I don't have much experience with plugin adapters/wrappers but I can imagine that being a potential source of failure. I've considered doing a custom wrapper for DrumSpillage in the past.

The next update is fully cross platform and VST3 compatible. We got quite far with it but I felt it was important to support existing V2 users with the Apple Silicon update.

[sqigls]

Beta? Alpha? Please send to me as soon as you can, if possible please, the VST3...
I don't care how raw it is!

Any upgrade path from Elecktroid to DS2?

Asking before I spend the effort finding the serial on the retired Mac Pro here.

Lol, I'm trying to be a responsible musician and actually keep my Intel machine so old songs can be worked on instead of selling it. I'll dig up that serial, thanks!
