Arturia Origin

[krushing]

Is this just out or what? The Arturia site was down a couple of hours ago. Anyway, seems pretty neat-o.

Flash intro
Specs

Looks very promising...
Especially the compatibility with the classic synth emulation patches from Arturia (MOOG Modular, Minimoog, ARP2600, CS-80, Prophet-5).

 

[Bluedays]

looks promising!!

I wonder how much it will cost though.
cause the Arturia Minimoog / CS80 / ARP2600 / Modular are $250 each!!
add to that a 32-step analog sequencer, a large LCD, effect processor, and an extensive control surface w. analog / digital I/Os...

do you still think it would be under 2000?

Damn! That looks sweet!

While we're on Arturia, you guys see that Jupiter 8 vsti?

Just in case you hardware folks don't always visit the Software section:

yeah my balls about fell off when i saw that thing.

literally almost fell off.

It looks great. Unfortunately, I think it's going to be pretty expensive - at least as much as Nord Modular G2 keyboard costs. If the software instruments come with it, I think I'd get it over a Nord Modular G2 (I already have a Nord Modular G1), but if it doesn't, it could really expensive very quickly.

I was under the impression that the Origin doesn't exactly include the full instruments, but rather parts of them. I guess they don't want too much overlap in their product range...

This thing is an overpriced doorstop. It is Arturia's most insidious dongle to date...In the end, regardless of the shell, still a case for softsynths and "TAE" isn't all that to begin with.

I just wait for the software version of this product...and still not but it. Because this isn't a modular with componets from a minimoog, modular moog, prophet, or CS-80...it is componets from Arturia's crappy emulations...

Anyway, this is a led balloon...

wow interesting thread...

I didnt follow the NAMM news this year.

 

[Kojak]

The NAMM pictures show it with a color screen which I imagine would make it unbelievably expensive.

Being that I already purchased CS-80V, MiniMoogV and ARP 2600V ... I can't imagine spending that much for - essentially - "the same thing"
