He was so talented and productive. And so generous for the computer music community.

Rest in peace Arguru

well actually there was an Aodix pro (appeared around early 2001) so 2004 for aodix would be kinda imprecise.
I wonder if anyone has any of his old choons, 'em that appeared in mp3.com around year 2000 and such :Q

There have been several aodixes. Modix, Aodix, then Aodix Pro, then Freebase, then Aodix 2, Aodix 3, Overdose. All these are "intermediate works" before Aodix v4. Aodix v4 (2004-2006) is the real achievement of Argu in what regards sequencers, and the ultimate tracker according to him (and to me too). BTW : Aodix v4 is a co-creation of Argu and myself. And it was agreed between us that it will be freeware one day. So it is freeware since yesterday (downloadable at www.aodix.com). I think this free release gives us something more to remember the man =)

I'm so sorry for Argu... just found out... man what a tragedy. [put some nasty swears here, can't help it - I'm like that], I still can't believe it happened.

My deepest condolences to his family. We lost a great great developer. I really loved most of his software. He was brilliant. Directwave, Deckadance, Vertigo, Aodix... oh maaaan. Don't get me wrong, I don't mourn only for software but for a young, clever, brilliant man he was and passed on so young, that's a tragedy.

Now I shall mourn in peace for a while. [put some nasty swears again here and a few tears]

How [you know what] did that happen [same here]...

no cheers today.

This is a huge loss. I'll always be grateful for his software.

This is such a bummer. Arguru was getting SO CLOSE with DirectWave!

Please, Image-Line.. we beg of you: Fulfill Argu's vision of a COMPLETE softsampler, and complete/deliver the Mac port of DirectWave.

Quite simply: It's what he would want. It's what we want.

You will be remembered, rest in peace bro.

[magmavander]

I often use his superb TB4004 in Buzz. It's tragic. A lot of thoughts for family and friend. Now Arguru is a true legend... Unfortunately.

Went to the Psycle site to check for updates and discovered this tragic news. Condolences to his family, friends and fiancée. The world has lost a talented and prolific coder.
