This is terrible news ...
One of the few remaining inventors/developers/manufacturers of truly innovative products - read "instruments with character and soul" - has gone bust. Let's hope the community keeps our Wave's, XT's and Q's alive and kicking !!! |

You said it, terrible.
But soft synths and marketing errors are not forgivers. It's a very hard time for companies right now

Sad news, indeed. But I'll take issue with the "few remaining true innovators." I think there are a number of developers out there with some soul, not to mention Don Buchla and Bob Moog still going strong, all these years later. How many industries can say that?
That said, I think the whole industry will mourn this loss. A reminder that this is a tough, tough business. |

As I found out that in fact I have connections with the crew of addicts running the unofficial mailing list, i've been able to post a second news
Rejoice rejoice users, there is some hope…

Someone please clarify:
Hey, I'm sorry that Waldorf has shut down, I liked their soundbanks. On another note, does this mean that their soundbanks will be open to he public for free (since Waldorf can't sell them anyway? I'll be the first to get their sounds if this is true! Raghav Korektphool |

korektphool, no, it means that users of the synths and software will have the soundbanks, updates, OS available like they were on the Waldorf site. It'll be minimal support by fellow users : no sale, no commercial activities, no free stuff.
Now it's not even sure they will be able to put it online. -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
