Fairlight CMI Clone - Qasar Beach

„Besser“ dachte ich auch gerade, ist aber noch Luft nach oben.

Für authentischen early 80ies New Wave sollte das Timing aber so passen ?
 
Ja klar, aus Interesse und Nostalgie wird man Spaß dran haben. Will man zu Potte kommen, wird man sicher an sowas keine Freude haben, da sich die Welt ja weiter gedreht hat.
 
Was ist denn "zu Potte kommen"?
Ich habe eine DAW mit der ich produziere. Ich habe genug Hardware mit der ich DAWless produzieren kann und ich habe einfach Sachen die mich inspirieren um neue Sachen zu erschaffen. Dieses Stückchen Software will keine moderne Technik ersetzen, kann es auch gar nicht, aber es kann dir Kreativität erschaffen die du so vielleicht noch nicht entdeckt hast
 
Daran kann man sehen wie der Entwickler auf Anwender reagiert ?
Ich hatte ein animiertes Logo angeregt und.... da ist es ?
 
Dass das Programm selber nicht aufnehmen kann empfinde ich jetzt nicht ganz so schlimm. Dafür benutze ich gerne ein externes Programm und passen mir die Daten schon an. Die momentane Liste sieht so aus:

Wishlist and bug report:

01)
save system 1234.sy not possible

02)
Midi configuration page
If are two or more devices in the list (USB audio/midi interface and USB midi keyboard) only the configuration of the first device will be loaded and remembered. Second device configuration lost after restarting

03)
Integration of a chromatic tuner / test tone generator with different frequencies (A-440 kHz) and volumes on Page 7 for easier setting root key and tuning.

04)
Kurzweil sounds does not load correctly

05)
The developer did not spell Kurweil correct on the page.

06)

07)
Wishlist:
animated logo "QasarBeach"

08)
Wishlist:
MIDI sync Page R as master and slave

09)
Wishlist:
ASIO support with multiple outputs routings

• The ability to assign the individual voices to a desired output, when you use a sound card with example 8 outputs.

• The ability to assign the individual tracks from Page R to a desired out, when you use a sound card with example 8 outputs.

10)
Wishlist:
MIDI matrix - the ability to route different MIDI channels to different voices
Example:
MIDI channel 1 - voices 1-4,
MIDI channel 2 - voice 5,
MIDI channel 5 - voice 6...

Suggestion: wishes 07 and 08 combined in one page like the original Page 3 - Register Control and Keyboard Control?

11)
No metronome.

12)
No audible or visual indication that a LOAD command has succeeded. Peter Vogel's clunking floppy drive sound may be corny but they do tell you that this has worked.

13)
No way to DELETE files in Page 2

14)
Undo for some Pages

Die 30 abgearbeiteten Punkte erwähne ich jetzt mal nicht. Es hat sich unheimlich viel getan seit den letzten 3 Updates. Ich erlebe die Entwicklung hautnah da ich Beta Tester bin
Zum Vergrößern anklicken....
Cool! Und Danke an der Stelle auch für die flotten Antworten und Tutorials.
Kann man sich hier irgendwo auch engagieren? Bin zwar eingebunden durch systemrelevante Arbeit und viel Familie, aber ich finde dieses Projekt mega!

Wartet auf die neue Version 1.25
Es gibt eine Menge Features und das Timing hat sich auch etwas verbessert. Die Jitter sind von 12ms auf 6ms herunter. Das ist noch nicht gut aber besser. Page A - Sound sampling bereitet noch Probleme. Wir hatten mit Abstürzen und kratzigem Audio zu tun. Ich bin aber optimistisch dass er das hingebogen bekommt.
 
Das Timing scheint sich sehr verbessert zu haben. Leider war die letzte Beta sehr buggy. Die Implementierung der veränderbaren Ansicht in Page D finde ich cool. Das ist ein wenig die Antwort auf das Video von Aly James und Samplight

Wo findet man eigentlich die System Voraussetzung hierfür ?
Würde das Teil gerne auf einer alten Intel CPU laufen @ 2GB RAM lassen.
 
Ich werd mal versuchen mir das am Wochenende auf meinem intel atom j1800 mit 19" touchscreen anzusehen.

Windows ist wohl die wahl .. oder so hab ich das in erinnerung
