Product Version 1.100.0.0

It might be a KVR bug or something, I have no idea how 1.0 turned into 1.100.0.0, but I went and changed it back to avoid confusion. I am still working on the big update. A lot of things were fixed which were hard to do, and Im adding the new features right now which need more time, but its coming, so a little more patience please :D
So glad to hear you fixed that it doesn’t work on Mac! ;)

Can you tell me when the Airwave update will be released and perhaps give us a preview of what new features it will include? Thanks.
The update is nearly ready, I am finishing the new GUI themes at the moment. Then I will take care of the new factory bank 2. Updates include New themes, new user experience updates like clicking directly on leds to make selections instead of the button, new trance gate effect, optimizations, much improved JP bank import, and many bugfixes too many to write here for now.

As another Mac user this is a particularly unhelpful post. I assumed it was now available for Mac (which would be fantastic!!) but apparently not.

Unfortunately not at the moment, because its heavily done with internal code. I would have to rewrite everything from scratch to make it easy for users, perhaps in the next update!

Hi,

I'm just discovering this Adam Sabzo Synth (Airwave).

It sounds fantastic. A wonderful emulation of the Roland JP8080, which I have heard other versions of, but didn't purchase them.

I'm very glad that I bumped into this Synth, I also love the other synths by Adam Sabzo. i.e. Viper, and JP6K.

Are there any Soundbanks for the Airwave ? if Not, will there be some soundbanks released soon ?

I also noticed that there will be some updates for Airwave, will the updates add more features, or is it just some needed fixes ?

Thanks.

Thank you, I am glad you like my work!

Yes, the update will have a new factory bank 2, but there are tons of JP8000 and JP8080 banks out there which Airwave can import, so you have many banks for it.

Yes, I wrote some new features in a few posts above.

Hi @adamsabzo ,

Thanks for the helpful, and positive feedback.

Hi @adamsabzo ,

I'm interested in purchasing both Airwave, and Viper Synths. Do you offer any discount for a bundle like this, or have a discount code at checkout that will give me a better pricing ?

Thanks,
Muziksculp

Not at the moment, but there will be a discount in August, if you want to wait until then.

Hi, No Problem. I purchased 'Airwave' Synth today. I plan to purchase Viper in the near future as well, I was hopng there was a bundle discount, i,e, buy two synths, get 15% Off kind of deal, but that's OK if it is not somethng you can easily do.

I'm sure I will be enjoying Airwave a lot.

Thanks.

Fantastic update - thx!

Magnifico-oh-oh-oh

Thank you for the great update! Is there a need to re-import the already imported JP banks? Or just installing the update will make use of the new import improvement?
Kneed je synth
