Objectively speaking, the customer is not always right. Sometimes the producer is right, sometimes a third party is right, sometimes a fourth party is the only right one, sometimes no one is completely right, sometimes no one is right at all.Daags wrote:i come from the school of thought that 'the customer is always right'.

For me it's only Synthex 2 and miniSynthex that need a gui overhaul. They look quite clumsy and "half-way there", their "tall" keyboard look is also plain ugly. They need to look less computer graphics and more like V+ and PolyKb, i.e. like their hardware inspirations. Everything else though looks the part!wald wrote:But the user interface does not have the same level of quality.

Figuratively speaking, the customer is always right - assuming you want their money and continued custom.

Well, there's a big difference between the customer being in control of their purchases and being right.Daags wrote:HunterKiller wrote:Objectively speaking, the customer is not always right.

If a customer demands that your $100 VST has all the features of a Schmidt but only wants to spend $100 for it and won't make the purchase unless you make those changes, you may not get his money if you don't cave in to his ridiculous demands, but that doesn't make him right.

I see the pedants are out like flies to dogshit here.
we're talking about fixing a consistently complained about preset system here. not a fundamental change to the product itself.
carry on.

PolyKB has some issues as well. The shadows that obscure text is pretty unforgivable. It does sound great, though.HunterKiller wrote:For me it's only Synthex 2 and miniSynthex that need a gui overhaul.

Not at the expense of common sense, therefore, not always. I've worked in businesses and seen both sides of the fence. Simplifying things like that, is what actually leads to bad business in the long term. Find common ground, do not conquer in order to gain short term gratification.Daags wrote:Figuratively speaking, the customer is always right - assuming you want their money and continued custom.

I hope it is a Polymoog emulationNielzie wrote:Hmm yes, that what it sounded like to me, a "divide down" architecture synth, like those string synths..

But otoh we could be awfully wrong too

For me - the biggest issues with the preset browser is not, mainly, the functionality but rather the usability.
I think xils-lab will indeed come up with a new preset browser. Maybe just not yet with thsi new synth.
However I think once they've made a new preset browser they'll upgrade all other xils-syn6hs with it.

A month passed by, no news. Did the preset browser and graphics remarks kill this? Can't believe.
Time for some clues on this new release!

How old are you? Cause the only people I hear say that tend to be over 30...and have never worked a day in anything customer service related.Daags wrote: 'the customer is always right'.
Also, companies hate, hate customers that believe that outdated, nonsensical, and possibly dangerous idea.

According to my info, the new synthesizer might be delayed for a certain time. Some additional information might however come in the next weeks.fmr wrote:Wel...

On a side note, afaik Xils-Lab has always delivered what they promised, sometimes with a bit of delay, but never teased a plug in for ages without releasing it, or promised updates for years, that never came. So hope there certainly is.

I have to chime in ..the guis are absolutely but ugly .
Beginners level photoshop skills , at least for oxium and stixx ...damn that thing is butt butt ugly .
Which is kinda strange cause their gui designer ( yannick bonnefoy ) is capable of doing otherwise.
