Scope Software on WERSI Keyboard?
Posted: Tue Mar 10, 2009 3:35 pm
Hello friends and foreigners,
I am the owner of a WERSI Abacus keyboard. This instrument has a PC Motherboard inside, and a so-called SG-12 card, which is nothing else than a card with 6 Chips ADSP-21065L on it. To this board a cable is connected to a WERSI-board with much I/Os on it. So all in all this is a system which is much similar to a Pulsar II.
On this hardware runs a home-organ-software written by WERSI, which uses some parts of older Scope Software (hardware drivers and so on), and some other software products (VST-Plug-Ins), which WERSI buyed as OEM (Own Equipment Manufacturer), too.
So far, so good .. if you like to play home-organ, it is a solution which is not so bad ... but, anyway, I don't like the software provided by WERSI. I would like to run some other software, just as Scope 4.0 or 4.5 or 5.0 or something. I am a guy who wants to play with synthesizer programs and mixers and so on.
So I want to install this software. But WERSI isn't a company which likes his customers go their own way .. they do not support other software. They even do not like if you change the PC Mainboard to a faster one, or just install more memory .. they are a little bit solitarily. They just say, their customer buyed a WERSI keyboard, so he should use WERSI software. Dot.
I asked Sonic Core Support for help, but they told me that they can not help me. OEM contracts normally let the OEM (e.g. WERSI) be responsible for all service and support.
So I need some help from friendly people which are neither part of Sonic Core or WERSI, and that's what I am looking for now. I think there are two kinds of problem to solve - technical ones (does Scope runs on OEM board?) and commercially ones (is it allowed to register it for and run it on OEM board?). If you can give me answers to one of it, please do. If you live near munic, germany, and can help me in making test installations, please contact me. I invite you for some coffee.
I would not hesitate to buy a software update for 198,- Euro from Sonic Core, if I am sure that I can use it .. or I even would like to buy one or two other DSP cards and connect them via STDM cable with the SG-12 board, just using it as a Power-Booster, if I surely knew it runs ... but I do not want to throw away some hundred Euros for something which doesn't work.
So I hope for some responds now. Maybe someone did the same thing already? Or have some ideas how to do it?
Bye!
