Yes please release it ! I just got the plate and the chorus and I must say I'm very impressed. It is incredibly smooth...
Never heard that sound from a reverb in a computer... I'll get the A-100 next month and really look forward to the hall...

Warp, IMO, you really should not give up the development of your Scope reverbs. It might be longish to take off, but word of mouth and perseverance will pay at the end. I'd bet my money on that !
Thanks any way for those beauties...

imagine a Warp ASB, including optimized code and all the PCM91 presets at RRP $899! and with the new sharcs, this box could prolly run multiple instances! oh, and with a computer interface... it would be a classic!

Ralph, a box like this can make you... well.. i wont say rich but hey you could prolly afford a beer even with norwegian beer-prices!
best regards,

Where can I buy this Warp ASB ?!!!

That would be a very mean machine yes.... Lexicon wouldn't like that though...

THey would even hate it if instead of one set of I/0 & engine, we could run multiple instances in parallel a la 960L....

A box with 4 istances to load from all the algos (future too) from Warp, digital and analog I/Os to have them separated, BNC....I'd buy it yesterday...

well, you should know your gear better...
do you really expect firewire to have more bandwidth than a PCI connection ?

it will not work this way - and a new board design is out of sight.

aside from that people will still buy on famous names - according to your logic Warp should have sold 1k units in a couple of month...

cheers, Tom

Oops Astroman, I think you replied to the wrong thread here...

ASB isn't firewire is it ?

im talking about an ASB box, and in that case, as you are fully aware, all processing etc will be done externaly, and i think firewire and USB is fully capable of handeling the remote software

anyway it was just a dream, not a realistic one i migh add.

sorry for hijacking the thread.

no, it's USB - so probably even worse

you are right in case the onchip memory of the new Sharcs is sufficient for the reverbs algorithms.
the ADSP-21262 has 4 times as much as it's predecessor used on Scope boards, but still no more than 2 MBit, a mere quarter MByte.

cheers, Tom

I didn't mention firewire nor usb (for audio transfer, editor can be), I just thought of an hardware reverb unit, syncable by BNC connector, with analog and digital I/O's.
I'd throw inside other 100 $ (industrial price) of the new chips and sell it for 1000-1200 $.
Having 4 instances out of the computer would be a no-brainer...
As I said I'll buy it immediatly and gain the inner peace on the reverb thing.

astroman · Post by **astroman** » Fri Oct 14, 2005 1:57 am

I admit I'm speculating that the new units have NO local memory (except onchip) - I'd rather see the opposite though...

I'll better shut up until someone opens his box and posts a photo of what's inside

and YES, I'd also buy the Hall algo if Warp (re-)considers a sequel

cheers, tom

I'd happily buy from Warp again, as long as STW doesn't do sales / support. Warp's development work is great. STW's support work is... not great...

An external box would be excellent. I'd buy a pre-fab computer with 3 DSP card and 2 channel S/PDIF or AES IO and a GUI- *and* MIDI-controllable switch to choose between the verbs, all in a 19" rackmountable format. Yum.
