This bleeder just maxxes out my CPU!

All I get in XT on a 2.3P4 is a maxx out - at least it doesn't crash my PC.

I had the same problem in XT on a Centrino laptop. Somehow a reboot fixed it; my AMD XP never had any problems though.

HI

Once I changed my DMA buffer size I did finally get the thing going!

So it's just a bit tempremental at the moment!

The demo only works on MIDI Channel 1 in Cubase,I can't find any way of changing the MIDI channel output. Am I missing something or is there a problem?

huh... for the high cpu usage, i guess it's optimized for SEE2, AMD XP... is a no for this synth i guess

Very impressed. I've been waiting for this bad boy for a long time now, and finally it's here! Some of the presets are amazing, but some real duds too. I mean, what's up with that Ch5 Intro ST preset? WTF is that? Or maybe it does something really cool but I just didn't find the right parameter to tweak?

Overall, I think this is up there with my favorites like z3ta+, Rhino 2..etc.

I'd like to know from all you Waldorf owners who's tried this demo--Do you feel this fills the void for someone who doesn't own the Waldorf XT/Q..etc? Or is it still quite a ways from filling those shoes?

Lunatique, send your midi on Channel 5 to all the presets marked "Ch5" and you should hear a difference.

@Lunatique

i did try this demo and it seems like quite a nice synth. i own a microwave xt and tbh i find that either surge or even the old ppg vst do a better job of the things i use my microwave for (predominantly pads)

although i didn't give it that long a demo so it's probably much deeper than i had the chance to go.

never tried a q so it might be spot on as that goes.

cheers,

steve.

No CPU problems on My AMD x2 3800 here in SL 3.
But only after:
1. changing from 30-16voices (Rightclick on terratec logo)
2. Pressing on/off on the vst power icon.

I then turned on stereo voices as well and I still don't go above 20% except for the biggest patches. That's better than Z3ta+.

CPU goes up to 95% with a single voice here in FL; not so much in Energy XT.

as i said many posts ago.. my cpu usage is almost near nothing on an AMD X2 4800+

i dont own a Q/uQ so i cant speak to that, but this definitely is quite a ways from filling an XT's shoes. however, the uQ was never ment to do that either. so the komplexer is a VA with a little wavetable added in for good measure, just like the uQ.

the closest thing to an XT right now is concrete's kubik, which also isnt an XT, but its archetecture is similar.

sure, with argueably the most powerful processor available. and i, with my very outdated athlon 2000+, envy you for that cpu power.

I used to have a micro q and (imho) the filters remind me the waldorf one but the osc are different especialy pulse with modulation. I need more time to play with the demo but overall im realy impress.It does realy have the Q quality, fresh, digital with lots of definition.I am wondering if the programers are from Waldorf. Does anyone know ?

The blurb says "available now!"... question is where?
"If less is more, just think of how much more, more will be".

!!! I'm so happy that this is released, I just sold my mQ away after some long consideration. The sound was good, but I reaallly luvd that mod matrix and binary & arithmetic operations!

Post

A quick note from a many years mQ owner who spent a lot of time programming it...
I think the filter resonance is quite different than on mQ... Also the sound in general is a little bit cleaner & polished than on mQ. Also it seems that the cool aliasing artifacts (or whatever they were!) that could be produced on mQ with some extreme filter & feedback settings are different on Komplexer...

It seems very cool! I don't care about accurate timbre reproduction, I just love that mQ functionality. And, if I someday can afford this, the ability to import my mQ patches :)
