O.S. update for C series???

[RASP]

So the last O.S. update Access put out was version 6.5 for the C series.

Does anyone now if they have plans to ever update it again?

I've heard nothing to this effect. It would be nice to have the hypersaw...
How long after the C series came out did Access stop updating the B series OS? Maybe the "4-pole/Moog filters" are the final gift from the manufacturer?

[RASP]

I hope not but I guess they have to stop somewhere.

The hypersaw would be cool. May'be it could be like an additional spectral wave shape or something. That would be nice.

I don´t think Access will use to much time and money on discontinued products. They proberbly hope that we will all dump our A, B and C´s and buy a Virus TI or Snow some day. Anyway i think they have used the memory of the C series to max. so they would have to delete features to throw new features in. Anyway there havn´t been a new OS for the C series for a couple of years now so i guess that OS 6.5 is the last OS for the C series. Sad but i understand that Access has to keep moving and anyway: OS 6.5 is a good OS :D

You are right Onkel, OS 6.5 is a good one, no bitching here.

It would be cool if some renegade synth programmers coded a new OS for the A/B/C series to make it do new/unusual things. For instance, the Linksys wireless routers have had renegade freeware firmware upgrades written for them that greatly enhance their functionality, why not Access synths?

They do??? Do you have a link? I have a Linksys Wireless Router and sometimes it fucks up and gives the same IP address to both me and my wifes computer and sometimes everything seems like it´s working but then i have to turn it off and on again to access the internet. Pisses me of when it does that...

Back to the topic: It would be great if someone would make an alternative OS so that you could choose an OS 6.5a with vocoder or an OS 6.5b with wavetables :D The vocoder sucks anyway...

[RASP]

That should be doable, I mean, there are programs out there that let you hack the Ensoniq ESQ-1, letting you change up the navigational features, etc. I wonder if anybody has ever tried to modify O.S. 6.5 before?

I agree with you, the vocoder sucks!
