On the beatppl interview:
43:45
Glen says … that they are busy working on the next few things planned for ASM over the next four years.
So that’s good they’re doing some long term planning, and perhaps some blue skying too, while still doing development too. Nothing specific is mentioned of course, although elsewhere in the interview Glen does issue a “not confirm nor deny” on something Cory asked in specific.
24:35
They go over the new firmware.
1:07:00
Glen was liking the Osmose, and had an opportunity to play it and experience it.
10:00
Glen talks about the small loop quick turn around development cycle and how Chen helped make that work.
17:40
Flux asked about current delivery, and apparently there is a shipment to the US just about to be taken off a ship.
They also talk about the Classic patch bank from Push-Pull.
As far as loading the new firmware, unless it’s a one way deal, that you can’t return from, my basic philosophy is just do it. (Are your sources fattyparts, saying they bricked the HS?)
I loaded it.
ADDED: Note – There is a new version of the Updater 1.8.1 that you need to put on your computer to do the update. And as always read the notes and instructions!
The phazdiff is really great, i’m liking it especially running a slow morphing wave table into it and then using slow out-of-sync modulations on the phazdiff parameters. “No One Steps Into The Same River Twice.”
Next planned experiment is to apply poly-aftertouch to phazdiff.
I am using the Violet noise, at the moment but i think my color will change with my mood. (The suggestion in the interview for HS merch with T-Shirts in the seven noise colors is a good one.) There are distinct differences to the separate noises.
