Waldorf MicroWave as a plugin?

Waldorf just released this.

Is a plugin version of the Microwave incoming?

[egbert101]

Worst intro music ever, and no information on whether it's hardware or software. Brilliantly useless ad.

And there is Vavra

If Waldorf do bring this out as a plugin I guess they may not turn a blind eye to Vavra in future

I suspect it's a plug-in, but that "reveal" was (ummm) considerably beyond 'meh'. I'd love for them to do a MicroWave-Xt plug-in, personally.

You mean as a skin? If my memory serves me right the XT was a bigger version of the MW (rev 2?) with more knobs.

The motorolla emulator is perfectly legal , as longs as it's not supplied with the microwave dsp found in the rom file
Which is currently still available on waldorf's site

I know but other companies have pursued developers of plugin emulations before on less grounds eg Roland used to do it all the time

I’m not sure what the differences are, but I believe the XT is quite a bit more complex than the Microwave r2.

You mean microwave 2 ?
Microwave 2 and the xt are the same minus the knobs/delay effect and the dac's

Nintendo did this recently as well. Even if the process itself seems legal, very few people are able to shoulder the legal fees that can quickly pile up and, while they may not be able to remove all traces of the code on the internet, they can make it exceedingly difficult to organize any kind of project around the code.

And there is Vavra

Vavra = micro Q

The sun is messing with my brain. Microwave II = XT. Microwave 1 rev 2 is my holy grail in terms of sound.

It's not an ad, it's a teaser - the sole point of which is to let people know something is coming, so they'll create discussion threads like this one and speculate. So in that regard, it's been quite effective!

Let's see what it is, when they actually release something...
