just install the files(in the ftp menu 3rd party\dna), put the device in the routing window and then copy/paste the request string from the registration window that opens into an email to support asking for a demo key.

well done Ray!
I played with the new bundle for a few hours yesterday after receiving my keys for them and i must say 'stratospheric'. Optimus Prime is a masterpiece. Optimus Prime is the best multi-effector i've ever owned or tried bar-none!!! The variety of sounds you can get out of this plugin is eye-opening impressive. Optimus prime is instantly my favorite multi-effector and one of my top plugins now. I am thoroughly impressed. No hype here, this plugin is absolutely supernal. Both these new plugins are special, just because i don't say much about the Tape Echo does'nt mean anything bad but quite the contrary i think it sounds excellent and easy to get what you want out of it. I just am mind blown by the Optimus Prime and it fulfills a longed for desire. It is beastly/high-caliber with sound and versatility (This one plugin can allow you to get rid of many). I STRONGLY suggest trying the demo if one does not own it or just buy it cause it is a rare jewel. And i've honestly heard or seen nothing better than it on any ITB platform I've tried. Both plugins are special and really should be demo'd, it's DEFINITELY worth the time and i do believe most will love them.

Optimus Prime is not just another good plugin added to the SCOPE platform its the type of plugin that looks like one of the main attractions of the platform. It actually improves the platform and makes it more attractive in a noticeable way IMV. Another main selling point. What i'm trying to say is it would be one of the main reasons i'd buy into SCOPE if i was a new-customer and i usually don't think that highly for effects, only a VERY small handfull make me feel that way.

Congradulations Ray on the high accomplishments! I know you kept a smile on your face when developing these. I'm sure i'll keep a smile when using them. Awesome job!


EDITED

Agree on the Optimus Prime, worth the €99 alone, so with the Tape Echo as a bonus.

As to the Tape Echo, I'm a bit confused. The LED on the Filter section blinks at a constant rate. What is that indicating? Also when adjusting the Speed knob it moves the Filter knob a small amount each way. Is this correct behaviour?

Therefore I will buy mine after the sale, so Holger and Ray can get a little more for their under appreciated work.
Why wait ? Just buy each one seperately instead of in the sale bundle if u wanna pay full price.


I'm in the same boat, but it has to do more with payday rather than wealth distribution :lol: :lol:

IIRC you can enter your credit card information directly on the PayPal site in case you don't have a PayPal account.

Prime is a terrific AUX Delay..
It's really nice to slide up a fader on my BCF-2000 to get the delay then slap it back down w/o causing any degradation to the kick ass Lexicon Dub "tail" filtering itself out.
No more messing around with Modular for that effect when it is so well designed in a plug in now.
Works great as an insert too, but I like the external AUX method, then adjust the INV of the channels to get that perfect alignment.

Also sounds great to kick the Mod On during a tail just to add a Flange while listening to the tail fade out.
Great device Ray d J.
Must have took some time to make this..

Thanks for the appreciation and compliments on these new devices. Nice freaking @ the test yayajohn, always surprising to hear what other people do with it, gave me a big smile ;-)

Mr Arkadin, that led @ the filtersection just indicates the filter is enabled, forgot to mention that at the productpage on dnamusic.nl, so added that. Have fun with the plugs ;-)

Thanks fellow scopians for supporting dNa and Sonic Core with your purchase and your love for the platform.

OK. What about the interaction of the speed and filter knobs, what's that about?

Thanks for sticking with the platform, Optimus Prime is probably the most exciting device for Scope I've seen for a while.

Prime is the end to all Delays.
Now we apply BC Modular FX pre & post inside of a BC88/16 or 32.
We are beyond help at this point........

Where's the feedback knob ? Eg the number of repeats.

Optionally linked faders.... :wink:

@Dante: The feedback amount can be regulated with recirculate.

And as Dawman pointed out....it's possible to link the faders by clicking on the small Led between the knobs above the faders.

This and more is described in the manual shipped with the plug, or can be downloaded on the dNaMusic.nl website.

Also nice, is to use two different filters, one hpf, the other lpf, and enabling xfb(crossfeedback), even nicer with different delaytimes....or keep them seperated which gives a nice stereo effect....get creative ;-)

Wholelotta options ;-) And be sure to check the series/parallel functions when using both delays ;-) See manual ;-)

Cool thanks. I do admit to only one quick scan of the PDF, your honors. Looks like its called 'ReCirculate' - I initially thought that was something to do with keeping the PC cool :P

Very nice devices RA thanks lots of creamy scope character.
Q: When I press the infinite/loops button on Optimus Prime it's toggling between HPF/LPF filters and muting Input A/B. I'm not hearing anything infinite?

What values are your recirculate sliders ?
