Hi to all,

I didn't really know where to post this message, and I hope this is the right place.

For some of you, like for me, it will be sad to learn that SpaceF is over. The site will not be renewed and expires and July 7th.

It will not come back before (?) and if I ever continue making devices, it will not be spacef anymore.

Please do not think it is related in any way to anything happening here or there or whatever you may think about. It is very personal, difficult(much more for me than for you), but necessary.

For those who do not know : I have been making devices since 1998 when I got my first Pulsar card (amongst the very first to be sold in France). A few monthes later, I began designing devices, the first being released around august 1999. You probably know the rest of the story. And I've been living into DP most of my time for 5 years now, more and more every year.

But today it is time for a change. I need to concentrate on important issues, a life to live, and I will not have as much time as before, that's for sure.

A word to Echo users : thank you. you probably have no idea how you helped and how I am grateful. I will try to set up a page for echo somewhere, upload presets, and especially tips and tricks, but it will take a bit of time.
I'll do my best to be there for you.
So please do not be angry if you do not find spacef anymore.
And I'll be around anyway

uh, i read that post again, it sounds like a soap opera, what a blah blah , but, yes, it is also necessary to let you know exactly what happens, not to let you draw wrong conclusions too fast.

So I say "au revoir" and you will see me again under this ID or another.

See you

nb: i've put a few spacef devices in the device page for history.

Have fun
Be Happy !
And make good music !

Mehdi

Hi Mehdi, i'm sad to ear this, hope it's for the best for you, i wish you the best. You deserve it

See you around, and, if you don't make devices no more, well, at least continue your music! Music is for life, music is life, sort of

We'll miss you

Sad to see SpaceF disappear, good to see Mehdi still will be with us

Good luck with the future! Now go make some music!!

Well, that's a pity and a loss for us all.. Goodbye and hate to see ya go...

Thanks Spacef for all the interesting stuff you've contributed to the Pulsar/Scope community over the years...as a fellow developer, I know how much work you've put in and it's been interesting watching your developement since 98 when I also first started designing plug-ins in Australia...

All the best with your new found freedom.

yes, the mail started out as very emotional and sounded way more serious than it is
although it is real sad to kind of loose on of the coolest developers for scope

glad you're doing fine, and it must feel good somehow to put something aside to start a new chapter. all the best...

Ha! "this is the end” it's the beginning, mehdi.

Thanks for all the important work you have done for this platform, sad to hear that you will stop developing devices for us - but I wish you good luck with your decision to concentrate on different things here in life, may they be at least as rewarding to you as your past work has been to us!

Cheers!
Thomas

with Echo you've left us an outstanding tool and honestly I feel a bit ashamed to have it bought for that 'special introductory' price.

take care and drop a line from time to time...

cheers, Tom

Damn women, they always take away the joy from us...

Dear Mehdi,

You'll always have friends here! Please visit from time to time and let us know what you're up to, and how you're doing.

Good luck with your new adventures.

Sorry to see you go. I'm sure many of your devices will remain legendary. How can I buy the Echo3?

Anyway, good luck in your future endeavors!

Chris

Your note sounds a little melancholy, so I hope you new adventures are full of happiness ! Keep in touch with your Z friends yes ? And play more music

Maybe sometime in the future you start to make again devices... you never know...

But for the moment, follow your heart and enjoy life!...cause we might have only one!

Let me add my respects to the others here. Your generosity and inventive devices have greatly enriched my Pulsar/Scope experience from day one. I look forward to your new incarnation. Best of luck.

I'd also like to say - I've appreciated and enjoyed the communications I've had with you, Mehdi. I truly understand your emotions in your announcement, and hope all will be for the best!

You will always have friends here in the Pulsar and planet z community...

regards,

best wishes, Mehdi

mehdi- sorry to see you stop developing, you have been very helpful to myself and others!
will your spacef devices still be available for purchase or download?

good luck

Mehdi, thanks from me too, for your ongoing contribitions on this platform since years. I enjoyed the communication with you very much as well and hope, your future will have something to do with music.

best
Wolfgang

Really, stay in tune and find a way to continue your contributions, without changing your plans, but this community can't loose such a respected member!

Cheers man!

i think CW should license Echo3 from Mehdi and develop it for Noah, giving Mehdi some well deserved dosh.

Sad to see you stop developing, all the best for whatever you do in the future.
