I had some ideas back when I started reading this thread, but subsequent posts made all my guesses moot. What I have heard all sounds very cool. I look forward to seeing the results rolled out on the 20th.

My bet's on a changed demo mode that randomly displays the classic ZAK, POW, etc on screen and inserts short synth brass blasts accordingly in the output. :P

I go for a Zebra "special" HZ (Hans Zimmer) version, which contains Diva LPF and HPF!???

who cares?

it's from Urs and U-he, so it will totally awesome... honestly, he could tell me it's a software emulation of poop on a stick and I'm absolutely sure it would still be really cool...

Filterscape is great. Zebra is amazing. ACE is cool. Uhbik is awesome. MFM is crazy neat. And Diva blows me away.

So honestly, who cares what it is?

IT WILL BE GREAT.

This one is a side effect.

As you know, next week premieres the final part of The Dark Knight trilogy. For the soundtrack HZ used a custom built Zebra with Diva filters and some prototype features originally planned for Zebra3. He got us to do this in return for some rights. Now the gist is, part of what we're releasing requires that pimped version of Zebra, hence it will be bundled. It isn't perfect, e.g. the "Diva" filters are mono, there's no multicore support, significant CPU drain if the extras are used. We call it ZebraHZ, and it will run nicely as a *separate* plugin!

So, hehe, I can't hold back anymore, and it has been guessed rightly a few times - all Zebra patches by HZ/HS designed for Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, accompanied by ZebraHZ. Sells for 99$, requires an existing Zebra license.

This I think is the best way to celebrate 11 (i.e. one more!) years of u-he, and a great way to bridge the gap until we release Zebra3. I'm also very happy that we can finally and officially make these sounds heard :)
