Hey, I've got the mad inside hookups

naw, dancetech.com's admin started a thread that said so and this novation tech support guy who posts on dancetech posted that exact message that I posted here...just copied and pasted it

"Novation has been aquired by Focusrite Audio Engineering Ltd. A new company, Novation DMS Ltd has been set up."

My freind said the same thing as well, but this information is not sure yet.
If that's true, I think it's a great tragedy, because the Supernova II was a amazing synth. Waldorf, Novation... What's the next?

The huge improvements of cpu power and the warez industry will take all these companies down (who wants to pay for synths if you can dl them for free? with these hilarious questions as result ) . Access and clavia survived because of their software/hardware combi products I guess? Anyway this is very sad news, (super)nova, drumstation and bassstation were classics.

dunno i guess access and clavia will rest for a while.. the result will be that we'll all be using the same material tho.. especially the waldorf's had a unique sound.

EDM synths are kinda a niche market anyway, Honestly I think they die because not many people can afford the expensive hardware and they lose to their cheaper competition.


One doesnt even need warez to take away from their business, theres so much free stuff out there.

Its sad to see companies go away, but new ones will come, its just one of the ways we all have to move forward, and yet another thing that old skool ppl will talk about to make themselves feel cool, heh.

Its not like nobody will ever try to get sounds out of a circuit again, theres gonna be others to replace the ones that go away.

"The huge improvements of cpu power and the warez industry will take all these companies down"

Sadly I agree with you.
Supernova II had already been discontinued and Novation didn't release nothing in its place. Still, I think the KS4/KS5 synths weren't selling as well as Novation expected and there are a lot of V-Station pirated version on the Net.
Nowadays, I think the Supernova II it's a very underrated synth. But I love my Supernova II ;-D

wait .. Waldorf is dead also ? Are you friggin kidding me ? I want a Q so bad it almost hurts, but I won't get the money till next year I think .. will they still be sold new ? Or will I have to go buy them second hand ?

Aaaaaaah sad news ! This means less competition and higher prices for us to pay for new synth ... I don't understand, they were owning hard with the v-station no ? I sure as hell love it ! Maybe it made the k-station obsolete and they lost too much money on that synth then ? Oh sec I just read sonic's post, didn't know that. Well the poco should solve that nasty little piracy I think no ?

Yep, Waldorf is dead. Incredible and unique sounds can be found on the Q/Q+/Microwave XT synths. I have the Waldorf XT and it's very nice to make a lot of sounds: bass, drum kits, evolving pads and digital low-fi effects. Kicks and bass are superb!
BelgianGuru, if you like the Q, the Micro-Q provides almost all the features found on the Q (except morphing filters, sequencer and some effects) and it's cheap. I agree with you, the Waldorf synths like Q/Q+ or even XTk are so expensive... The Waldorf Wave has a HUGE price!
