Translator v7.1 Success!!!

Translator v7.1
Version 7.1 was the largest roll-out of supported formats in history - 18 in all! Modern samplers like Decent Sampler and SCI Prophet X were included, the the primary emphasis was on vintage samplers such as the Emu Emulator II, Ensoniq Mirage, Akai S900/950, Roland S50/550, and much more.
Customers have been telling us "great work", "absolutely fantastic", and "how does this work again?" Certainly this update has opened the door on new sounds being available for these old samplers.
Two technologies have made this possible: first is the Gotek floppy emulator. This way images can be created and easily used - instead of futilely attempting to get new computers to cooperate with floppy drives - on a low-level too! Second is A.I.R. - Automatic Instrument Reduction, a Translator technology that allows "normal-sized" instruments to fit properly into low-memory samplers, which most vintage samplers are. Without this, 90% of the available instruments would be unavailable since they are too large. A.I.R. shrinks instruments with the minimum of sonic impact into how they sound. Certainly the output is the not the same, but it's mostly close, and best of all it's doable.
Bringing up the rear, within the next couple weeks, are the final four formats: Yamaha Genos/Tyros 5, Roland Fantom (modern), and Korg DSS-1 and DSM-1. When these are released, we'll make a public announcement.
Creator - Plan for 2024
mc 600x600a
Fresh from NAMM, as a company we set up tentative plans for some serious upgrades on the Creator series: Korg, Motif/Montage/MODX, Fantom, Fusion, and Kurzweil. In focus are the editors, plus expanded support for newer models.
It should be recognized that newer models have never been a priority, since they usually load in older files (e.g. Motif XF into MODX, or KRZ into K27000). Regardless, since there have been numerous requests to load such files in, and since it's time for full support, so we are putting them in.
Additional features planned are advanced mapping functions, more sample editing features, and stronger rearrangement functions.
