KARO Team Expansion

Post by medusaland »

Hi Oasyans,

KARO company expanded its !

Now we have 2 new excellent members for the sound development... Both have different synthesis models on linux as a study developed.

Prof. Dr. Peter Jung
.............................
Linux specialist at the University of Duisburg and the proud owner OASYS :-) Peter has worked a long time ago for Yamaha as a freelancer of sound design. He creates the factory library for the V-50 and partly for the SY-77 and SY-99...

Dr. Guido Bruck
............................
Linux specialist at the University of Duisburg...

Peter and Guido will look at sound design support and it will shortly launch and present a new FM library in collaboration with KARO!

Best wishes,

KARO Sound Development

This is good news Karo..

With two PhD's joining the team with Linux experience seems that you guys are headed the way of Open Labs....

A possible solution for us users is for Korg to go into a licensing agreement for Karo to take over production of the Oasys. Then the Oasys-II would be forthcoming under Korg-Karo brand name.

Since you guys are already designing sounds for the Oasys, you would have heads up and with the Oasys Licensing, you would have a very fast time to market to beat the crap out of the likes of Open Labs.

The Oasys-II must be able to run VST's and sequencing like what you get with PT or Logic. Also stream samples from fast memory/HardDrive. For example, Logic has a 12Gig Piano sample that is unbelievable. Can't do it if the Oasys-II does not stream from the harddrive and only has 2Gig of RAM.

I'm daydreaming but..........

Hi minnkorg,

Modifications to the OS (VST, streaming ...) can only be the R&D team from Korg, since the software has a source code and the Korg is definitely not for a Third Party Release! :wink:

But what we can do ... We could show Korg our new ideas for further synthesis models...

Best regards,
