Blackbox II Revival (soon)
Posted: Tue Sep 17, 2019 7:00 am
Hi everyone,
This thread is about BB2 "revival".
The Blackbox II Revival contains all BB2 devices that I still have, with an upgrade to new standards:
- Filters output on 2 channels (L/R) instead of one only
- Oscillators output on two channels too.
- Soniccore key: this replaces the spacef-homemade-protection, and indirectly could give value to your card.
Please note that: I found a lot of my old sources, but some devices can't be remade nowadays. This seems to concern devices that were really old and not part of BB2 anyways (my first synths etc).
How to get it ?
- At the time of writing this, it is not yet done, but planned for october.
- Small packs will be released whenever ready, at a quite low price
A key will have to be purchased separately --> once you have the key, you can activate any existing or future BB2 Revival module
Once the release is complete (mid/end of october), all sale will be managed by SonicCore.
- This system allows several things
--> get stuff as they are ready
--> don't get what you don't want
--->Get it cheaper than the final product that will be more expensive
--> Get me motivated: yes, that's what it takes to motivate me. I am feeling motivated actually
UNKNOWN ASPECTS
==================
I do not know if it is better to replace the old modules or create a new folder
-- replacing the old modules allows to take advantage of existing presets immediately: they will load faster.
-- not replacing the old modules has the advantage of... I am not sure what advantages but some user do not mind the present system because it may lead to new sounds (by not loading modules)
That's all for now.
Let me know if you have any question
I will post when stuff are ready to be purchased/downloaded
