That is awsome news.
Flexor is for sure already the most amazing tool available for everything from superior sounding envelopes, oscillators and filters to providing advanced modules not available on any other platform.
Can't wait to see what will be included in v2.

spindrift... v2 is going to include double the amount of modles as v1.
red_muze (assaf dar, flexor developer) posted a list of filters teaser. check out this list:
Quote:
|
1) AP2 Resonator - A resonator filter based on allpass tolopogy - capable of self resonating
2) AP3 Formant - 3 resonators for creating formant style filtering indivisual control for each formant
3) AP3 Vowel A - a vocal filter capable of many different vowels with several filter types with X/Y control.
4) AP3 Vowel B - a vocal filter capable of many different vowels with a diferent flavor of resonance.
5) AP6 Phaser - a 6 stage phaser based on allpass filter, selectable stages and contol over phase frequency
6) AP8 Additive - a filter arranged in 8 overtones - very special effect!
7) bp2 granite - a very musical bandpass - no resonance
8) bp4 granite - a very musical and buttery bandpass - no resonance
9) bp8 granite - a very musical and agressive bandpass - no resonance
10) br2 granite - a very musical band-reject filter (notch)
11) br4 granite - a very musical and buttery band-reject filter (notch)
12) br8 granite - a very musical and agressive band-reject filter (notch)
13) CM1 Flanger - comb filter with 4 diferent flavors and classic flanger sound
14) CM1 Phase - inverted comb - the hipass version of a comb filter
15) CM1 Variable - Comb filter with allpass in the feedback stage - for inharmonic flanging
16) CM2 Chorus - a lush chorus effect
17) CM2 Cross - Comb filter with cross feedback for the extra agressiveness
18) CM2 Detune - a detune effect
19) CO1 Basic - a 6db crossover filter - when summed up there is no sound change and no phase issues.
20) CO2 Spice - a 12db crossover filter - good for higher seperation of the upper range. when summed up there is no sound change and no phase issues.
21) HP8 Razor - a very very steep Hipass filter. Try not to cut yourself!
22) LP3 Rubber - a 18db filter with an "acidy" feel to it.
23) LP6 Aqua - a variable stages filter (up to 6) with a liquid sounding resonance
24) M2S Comb - a mono to stereo filter based on comb filter - mono compatible!
25) M2S Phase - a mono to stereo filter based on allpass filter - mono compatible!
26) MF2 Swiss - a multipole variable state filter capable of self oscilation with 6 different flavors and very acurate.
27) MF2 Spice - a 2 pole variable state filter capable of self oscilation with hipass, lowpass bandpass and band reject filters - oberihem style
28) MF4 Spice - a 4 pole variable state filter, with an extra boosted very narrow resonance - very special sound.
29) WA3 wackah - Wah-Wah effect - crybaby style - good for rock n roll
30) WA5 quack - Wah-Wah effect - VOX style - good for funk
31) WA8 oohwah - Wah-Wah effect - BOSS style - good for lush guitar pads
and yes, new ocillators, new envelopes, LFO's sequencers, more ganular effects, lots of new shapers and distortions, more tools and modulators... fun fun fun!!!!

I have a CW sound card and I'm considering to purchase this modules so I have one question.
Since I have only 3 DSP will I be able to use flexor modules (and if yes - how many). Of course I would remove everything else from routing window and route modular directly to cubase. I could buy one more (second hand) CW card and connect it with the one I already have. That way I would have 6 DSP. So I would like to know how much workflow I can expect from it?
tnx in advance

In my experience they are fairly conservative in DSP usage, but of course with all the different modules available it will vary a lot depending on what modules you use.
But even when using them for the simplest 1 osc synth they can really be really nice and worthwhile addition. With the extremly precise envelopes there is nothing like it for punchy basses for example.
But 3 DSP's will be very limiting and I would really try to get another card if you want to experiment with more advanced patches.
I got a 6 DSP card and always push it to the limit.
It's possible to find 6 DSP card s/h for about €200...I would really reccommend you try to get one of those for 9 chips all together.

Thanks for info. I'll try to find one of those 6 DSP card. I'll wait until march for ver. 2 and try to find a card until than.

i have 17dsp and also gets pushed to limit at times... BUT, like spindrfit said, even simple patches are worth it. 6+3 will work out just fine for you i am sure.
what takes most on dsp is polyphony, so if u are making noises/fx patches or monosynth patches with 1 polyphony you won't be using a ton of dsp.
another thing to note with flexor, unlike cw's own modules, is some of the modules "lock" themselvs on one dsp for bettr phasing and sound. this in turn allows the dsp managmnt system for less flxibility in assigning modules to the actual physical chips.
again, 9dsp total and you will be able to do almost anything you want.

thank you both. I've managed to find some second hand pulsar cards on e bay for really reasonable price.
Indeed, I don't need modular to make poly synths. Precise envelopes and diversity of filters is what I had in mind in the first place.
thanx once again... now I just have 2 wait for release of flexor 2

Well... I try to keep a low expectations. That way I avoid being disappointed. But the fact that so few use this tools - it's an expectation in it self
