Really nicely done !
You have pre programmed the lanes and playing them ?
If they release a desktop version with user samples, theyāll get my money.
This cheap plasticky 37 keys keybed is infuriatingā¦

Honestly, user samples are great. But you could still spend a decade exploring the onboard samples without getting bored.
If that still qualifies it as a āromplerā, then the stigma attached to using such a machine should change.

Iāll get a Wavestate in the new year but Iām not really bothered about user samples.

Thank you!
As I did with the original Wavestation. It was my first synth.

The stigma around romplers really should changeā¦ a lot of them are very deep. The only real issue is most old romplers had an absolutely terrible UI. Which is a pretty big advantage to the wavestate.

All Iām doing is pressing one key, or rather having the computer send it one 4 bar long note. Then muting parts, when you unmute them again they come back in on the bar!
Yes all lanes in all layers are programmed!

Thank you! Wavestate is no joke!
From Gearslutz, some important info regarding MacOS11 Big Sur.
āApple will release their next major OS version, macOS 11 āBig Sur.ā macOS 11 has some big changes under the hood, and Iāve already received mail from other audio developers cautioning me not to update yet. Similarly, Wavestate users on the Mac SHOULD NOT UPDATE to Big Sur until we release a matching update to the Wavestate software. We are currently testing that update, and hope to release it very soon.
Hereās the important part:
The fix requires an update to the Wavestate itself.
If your Mac is already running Big Sur, you wonāt be able to install that update.
So, if you donāt have another machine running Windows or an older version of MacOS, youāll be stuck - and we donāt want that to happen!
Thanks for your patience. Weāll let you know as soon as the update is availableā
Oh the headaches of using a software synth !?!? WAIT this is a hardware synth.
I understand the difficulties for companies supporting their machine, but this sort of gotcha shouldnāt happen. At least there is a work around, i guess most everybody could beg, borrow or steal another computer to do the fix.

Yeah, that makes sense. The hardware will still run fine, but if you connect it to a computer running a newer OS youāll have issuesā¦ Itās not like the hardware will suddenly stop working.
Rather have a Wavestate than the new Opsix.

Really? The menu system on the wavestate looks a little bonkers.
Opsix looks like a great FM synth, but agreed. Wavestate checks off a lot of boxes for me, even in an extremely competitive synth market.

Yeah, menu hell. I donāt really think it matters. You donāt buy something like the Wavestate to āavoid menu-divingā. You get it because you love that sound, and you are willing to dive for it.
But once youāve chosen your sounds and set your lanes, it has plenty of playable control.
