Overbridge [pre-announcement and June 2015 launch]

Yes, but when they release? In a few days or months, months and months yet?

Or the job opening is a response to se of the negative feedback their Custer service department gets on these boards. Maybe there’s a backlog of customer service tickets that need to be addressed. Or it’s Overbridge. Maybe it’s all that.

I would like to make it clear that Elektron has been up to speed with customer service side of things for sometime now. Those days are long gone…

I logged in a ticket yesterday and already they are looking into it. Holding my breath here, had the machine for 3 weeks and it’s already misbehaving…
But hey, speedy response, nothing to complain about that or the general feel of quality of the instrument, dont get me wrong :slight_smile:

It’s a long thread of people, ā€œwaitingā€. Maybe an indicator for the next ā€œbigā€ release of software to announce it more on a ā€œwhen it’s doneā€ basis … :slight_smile:

Thank you all for your advice, I think I’ll wait for overbridge (I’m sure it will be awesome :smiley: )
Do you think with A4 update for overbridge will be possible to record audio from A4 to iPad using apps like garageband or cubasis via camera connection kit? (sorry if it’s a dumb question)

So guys (elektron staff), how is it ? Shall I buy a mixer or will there be anything soon ? Q2 ?

I can’t wait :thinking:

:-1:

I’m wondering about the same thing. The a4 + Cubasis would be a neat combo. I have no idea if hoping for it is realistic or not, though.

Hey guys, here we are talking about and we are doing a thousand suppositions and dreams, but no one answers.
No information on overbridge from the staff.
Maybe this competition sponsored by Science Lab has shifted the focus from this major upgrade, but not to me that every day I wake up ready to receive OB or news about his state … but nothing.
This summer watching the promo AR newly released I discovered OB and I immediately thought of the benefits that would bring to my productions, then I developed the setup of my study based on this. I bought A4 & AR, tremendously fantastic (like all machines Elektron, already owner of MD UW + and MNM) but now I want to have the ability to save all my ideas on DAW to start with my production of 2015 based solely on sound experimental analogue from these two magnificent instruments.
I hope not to wait that long again, OB where are you?

If someone from Elektron posted on this thread ā€œwe’re working on it, it’ll be out ASAPā€, would that help the wait at all?

Because I’m pretty sure that’s what they’d say…

It’ll come when it’s ready. Elektron are clearly taking it seriously but aren’t going to finish OB then sit on it for weeks until deciding the time is right! They may, perhaps, wait a week or two until Musikmesse but for a beta release? I think not. Shouldnt be long to wait now though.

It would definitely help to know whether the beta is ~1 week or ~1 month away because of scheduling time to toy around with it. I’d also have really appreciated it had they told us somewhere during February that the beta would be delayed rather than letting us discover that on our own.

Most of us understand the pesky nature of development and don’t want them to release something that isn’t ready, but it is a bit disrespectful to make promises and then keep totally silent when the date passes. Giving a brief monthly status update takes like 5 minutes so there’s really no excuse not to do that.

But Q1 doesn’t end the 31st of march?

Public beta was due in February :wink:

Dont worry guys, im sure they arent sat twiddling their thumbs or idly surfing buzzfeed.

Wow, they are just incredibly rude and disrespectful to not take every user’s personal schedules into account when they are developing this free software.

Haa Zymos bang on. Chill

Hopefully we get an Elektron newsletter this week with some good news!

these days we should get open beta
