Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

I could write a looong replay to that but then this discussion will go on for ever. So, I thank you all for your attention. I'll check in after some weeks to see if there is any interesting replays or new developments :)

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

It’s going to be interesting to see how many plugins are developed for the DinoPark. It can store 32 plugins on the on-board memory and probably be used for effects as well since the EX model offer audio in. I wonder if some soft-synth developers like u-He will start developing for this. Not very li...

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

When I think about it, I do believe that the space-saving and portability factor is Xite-1s biggest strength and selling point. You don’t need a room full of crap in order produce at a very high standard. All you need is any laptop with express-card slot and the unit itself. It’s almost as portable ...

I’ll should probably stop posting in this thread soon, but here we go :) all of these ideas are nice in theory, but not how things actually are. i would say much more, having some actual behind the scenes knowledge, but i do not want to be negative or insult anyone. I’ll admit that I don’t know much...

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

Ok I will try to see it from a different perspective. Let’s imagine the worst-case scenario: A company copies a technology and lower the price so much that it is impossible for the original company to compete. This new company might not have any real passion or vision except monetary, and might ther...

Also, there is the mantra: “It’s all software in a box anyway, if it’s not analog you can just as well run it on a computer.“ I have my doubts about the truthfulness of that statement but it is none the less what anyone developing DSP solution has to deal with. there is no truthfullness to that, bu...

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

As mentioned I lack to see any (solid) direction in the MPA system, but a lot of empty space 'left to user ideas'. I'm also in an IOS forum and know how 'smart' the majority of such users is... most cannot even read anymore but need a video instruction, while waiting on the next 'sales' :D I think ...

I’m mostly taking on the role of the optimist to balance out the pessimists and keep the discussion more interesting. I didn’t say that what I wrote earlier was a likely scenario or that it would happen soon. The most likely scenario would probably be a very slow growth if the company survive, the m...

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

I don't see what the drama is about. Frank wrote what he was planning to do with his own company and he clearly pointed out that he hadn't talket to Holger yet, probably because they weren't the best of friends. He has abandoned some projects he didn't longer believe in, that seems like a helathy ap...

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

For the sake of the argument, imagine that the MPA takes off and becomes really popular. With time hundreds of plugins might be developed for it. Some of the customers that have bought MPA products might be in need of a soundcard that can work as a hub, or some might want something powerful yet comp...

Sounds really cool and "revolutionary". After you purchase this, please let us all know what you end up developing and how much it will cost for us to purchase your new hardware device. I don't know if this is sarcasm, I'm not planning on selling devices but if I were, I would at least no...

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

I think this could be as revolutionary for the audio gear market as iPhone was for the telephone market. Here are some examples of why I think it has great potential: - Anyone could make their own custom hardware standalone synth or effect box, just connect some potentiometers and switches to an ard...

Then you can use this for 69 eur which is 8 knobs with switch function that slides directly into the top of the housing.

Re: MPA: A whole new Chapter for SCOPE and you are invited

I hope 3rd party developers will port over their scope devices to this thing. It could really expand the scope market for a wider audience since the price is only 299 eur and is less complicated and works standalone.

I didn't even saw the plugins page ! I didn't read all but how will those Creamware instruments be launched ? In a Scope environment or directly vst's ?

Some design nitpicking :) : The width of the avatar area seems a bit unnecessarily wide. It could be cut down by 50 pixels I think to make it a bit more tidy looking. I would prefer a darker color outside the posting area rather then a brighter. Maybe something like #061820 could work nicely which i...

Re: Forum Update

I think it would be slightly better to have the avatar icons on the left side of the page like before. Since you start reading from the left it's nice to immediately recognize the poster without having to move the eyes.

Re: Is it worth to use scope boards with 96khz and kill 50%

Some more conclusions regarding minimax: Flanger/chorus does affect the sound on 96 kHz minimax but not nearly as much as when it's set on 44 kHz. It's like it doesn't work properly even though it does something. 96vs44 (minimax with flanger chorus).mp3 The sound with chorus/flanger turned of can st...
