"this is the hard disk version coming ! no more stuffit !"
I believe even the Cube's hard disk will be compressed. Isn't it meant to be loaded (uncompressed) to another drive? Or so I recall the discussion a few months ago.
I'm more geeked about the possibility of a streamlined intelligent interface. When I was on the Synful demo, having one patch handle so many articulations was incomparable. Hooray for bass oboes and choirs and gazoos, but nothing would impact our day-to-day VSL work habits like an interface that interpreted MIDI live (or nearly live).
This IS the key!!!
More of the same is just more of the same. VSL is smart enough to realize that the future is a combination of their outstanding sampling and synful's interfacing.
Given that is now achieved with this forthcoming release- they will sell truckloads of this. If, however, they just add more to Pro Ed (to make SE), it will be undoubtedly excellent material, but... [:'(]
Mark my words - there are probably 5 different developers (min) working on this now. My money is still riding on VSL making the best solution.
