Will Satin be useful for people that only use VSTi, is it more for people that do recordings?

Code: Select all

I hope your new arrived Dolby A unit is in a good condition.

As you want it.
[Haha, what an answer... we should do politics

It's a virtual tape device, so one use case is perhaps adding subtlety and 'glue' (for want of a better word). Of course, tape machines were designed to be discreet and transparent, nobody was keen on distortion and colour back in the days. But tapes still 'sounded', if ever so subtle. That's exactly what Satin does, and it does that regardless of musical style or instrumentation.
But in the modes other than 'Studio', it's also an effect box that you can twist to your heart's content.

^ Ok, thanks Sascha! I'm not sure I really need it (but the GUI look so nice!), I'll try the demo when it's ready.

Yes, wait for the demo. It might be like every time when you're sure you don't reallly need it (girls, ice cream, coffee...) but fail to live without.

If ths audio engine is finalized, why don't you get some sound demos up already?

That would be a distrction. If we want to make it till September 2nd, we'll have to fully concentrate on essential things.

For instance, I just rolled support for Truetype fonts into our framework, and Sascha has to rework all text labels on the gui. The result will be a much better look and ergonomics. We probably have a list of two dozen things to do even if the actual tape code isn't touched

Let the values be displayed on the In and Out Knobs.

Perhaps U-He could amend this concept: Without Satin, there is not enough darkness or chaos.

All values are shown in the upper display panel. BTW, this is common for many u-he plugins, so quite a few people should already be familiar with that workflow.

I thought with the size of the I/O knobs it would be a good idea to have those two values on permanent display while the upper display panel could be used to show values for everything else.
