Hartmann Neuron, Keyboard users Options

[CatloveX]

Hi,

Please, to anyone using the keyboard version of the Neuron, could you say for how long have you had it, the use it is having in your studio and if it is worth it?

All the demos I heard on the net are ambient, also, it is always the same "metallic" sounds I hear; Is that the only use you can have from it?

Thanks in advance for eventual replies.


Is it still posible to find the MODELmaker soft somewhere on the net?

In 2002 I hadn't the possibility to touch it (I was on a booth and rather busy) but I followed the demoes where he explained the basic. Unfortunately, the Neuron was then in preview, not totally functional so variations for exemple were only in 2 axis available (nearer/further and metal). They added more since, issued the model software… So to give a definitive opinion on something I've not touched _really_ especially since it's commercially available wouldn't be fair.

This said, the sound was very peculiar. I've yet to hear the finished version though.

One point I'm not sure it was a good technological move was the surround sound. But maybe they thought of something it could achieve that weren't yet possible to hear then (spacialization in the patch itself).

On Waldorf, to sum up (like I did in the news they announced Waldorf is back on track officially, and gave the actual line up of fellows involved (including 2 ex-Waldorf). I knew it was brewing for some days, but I don't have more information. Maybe the grapevine will be more productive in the next weeks.
