So when are Diva 1.3 and Satin coming out ?

[Dominus]

They've re-issued our 30 day download license, so at least that part is sorted now.

Actually, they only said they did. When I sign in, I still only have the expired one. I guess remnants of the iLokalypse are still around.

Sigh. I have a really weird feeling in my guts.

Reading this I understand that I should say thanks for using non-intrusive copy protection in your products, Urs.

So, yeah... Thank you very much.

Yeah, I don't own any of your products (I don't have a need for them, but if you came out with an amp sim I'd probably be first in line ), but I did suggest to some of the "iLok'd out" companies that the only way they'd get my money is to talk to you about how to protect their software without being at some other company's mercy.

So true. I too am enormously grateful to be able to have such amazing tools as Diva and Uhbik in my studio, with rational and non-damaging copy protection. That's why I eventually intend to buy Zebra as well (although for the moment I'm endeavoring to wait for version 3 of that one, just to get the most bang for my buck).

Here's another quite unusual angle to this: Zebra3 - if ever finished - will cost 249$. Zebra2 costs 199$, the update will cost $30. Most bang for bucks with anything u-he is buying sooner rather than later

Most bang for bucks with anything u-he is buying sooner rather than later

I can attest to that...

Ah, Urs! Quit making me spend money!

Time to adjust my monthly budget ... again ...

You forgot to say that if they buy Zebra and Zebra HZ, the update will be free, right?

Yes, that too!

(but not everyone needs The Dark Zebra - $99 is a considerable investment for a soundbank)

But that soundbank also includes enhancements to the synth itself, though, doesn't it? (I have been seriously considering TDZ as well ... not so much for an extra sound bank, but for what I understood to be some additional synthesis capabilities for use in my own patch programming.)

Dark Zebra is Zebra 2.5 with DIVA's filters added it gets the DIVA 1.3 new filter too
Dark Zebra also has:-
polyphonic compressors,
2 additional modulation mappers,
and a Polymoog-like resonator effect module.

did we get a confirmed answer as to 'when'? Or is it/they loosely expected in the next few weeks?

[chokehold]

Let's agree on "loosely expected".

Good to know.
Will you announce the "end of Zebra2 date" some weeks/months before it comes?
(Don't want to miss it.)
And will Zebra3 really have all the DIVA filters (including the upcoming ones)?

[SWAN808]

Let's agree on "loosely expected".

ok a confirmed looseness

[Naiw]

I don't see the point why this question is repeated over an over again.

Urs clearly stated they're not intentionally withholding the updates to be arses against everyone who obviously can't use Diva properly without the new features.

Let them finish the software instead of repeatively asking "is it done yet?",
funny- cause on other part of this forum people bitch about being "free beta testers for unfinished software."

The I/O knobs look big enough to have the values displayed on them.
