Any chance for a Solaris ASB

Request a new device/modular module, and hope that some enterprising developer grants your wish!

Would a ASB version be at all possible ?
As the scope technology is involved, it should be possible. The only question is wether a ASB SDK exist ? This would be great...

FRA59,

No news yet....the real problem as I see it is that the current ASB hardware would require significant changes to the Solaris (even Solaris CORE) structure. Also, there's more issues to be decided, such as market-worthiness of my Solaris design. What the Solaris does best may not be really what would sell a lot in its current configuration, so....either I design something really completely new, or wait for future hardware, but I'm still looking into it.

cheers,
john b.

John,

What type of hardware change:
- need for displaying things (waveform for the osc, filtertype)?
- way of managing page change (OSC, Filter, EG & LFO)
- other issues

If you are thinking about building up something new to fit the ASB hardware features, discussing the type of design on this forum could perhaps help you ...
Behing professionnaly involved in electronic design on an other market, maybe I could help...

Keep us informed.
