editor

Am I the only one getting excited that its close to end of July and the editor for Sub 37 is expected soon.

What exactly is the editor for that you can’t do easily with the knobs and switches? Sequencer and Arp stuff? I haven’t followed any editor discussions.

  • DAW integration
  • Librarian functions
  • See how other patches are constructed

Thanks @Bald Eagle!

Is it coming out though? I really hope so but some reason I have some doubts.

:smiley:
Same here…can’t wait for some news about this

Meantime in August…

Moog told us ‘hopefully sometimes during July - August’. I know from working in the software/development world that deadlines are most of the times optimistic… Let’s hope They release a beta we can play with. I’m volunteer for testing it Moog!

As someone who passionately prefers digital controls, this is a big deal for me. So I’m also really looking for the the Editor, whenever it finally arrives.

Moog emailed me a few months ago as well that it would be the end of July. I sent a follow up email last week asking the progress and if it would be possible to let the forum users know. I haven’t received any response back as of yet.

I think they are a little slow to respond but I assume its because they are very busy.

this is not the official editor, nor mine and I didn’t try it.

but anyway, if you use live :

When you are a Windows user you can find here http://forum.moogmusic.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=23716 a solution to use the Sub Phatty Editor to do all this with your Sub 37:

  • DAW integration
  • Preset management
  • See how Sub 37 patches are constructed
  • Using Sub Phatty presets on your Sub 37

The link doesn’t work. A mistake?

I made a few corrections and sumbitted an update of my post… you can now find the Interface to use the Sub Phatty Editor with the Sub 37 here: http://forum.moogmusic.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=23723

TBH I want this more for the librarian aspect than for any DAW integration or editing via mouse/software (yuck!) I bought the moog to feel it, use it, touch it.. so that’s how I’ll always program it. HOWEVER it would be nice to see all parameters of a patch in detail, especially as there’s currently no indication of ‘preset value’ on the screen for a given parameter (a kind of oversight on an otherwise stellar synth!).

I really look forward to the librarian so that I can sort through my 256 patches (I wiped all the presets and quickly filled it up with my own sounds) now, to remember what’s what and jiggle around free slots without dumping the bank via usb/midi it would be good to get a clear overview via software, and rearrange patch positions. Also I tend to be lazy when naming them on the hardware as it’s a pain to put names in with the wheel and cursors, much easier to type them.. so many of my patches have the same random load of spurious characters as names… I started out well but got bored wheeling in letter by letter names so ended up just changing the first letter and saving :laughing: .. so for that I’d love to have the librarian ready to rock after a heavy programming session, will be naming them in seconds rather than minutes.. bam.. bam.. bam! :sunglasses:

As for DAW intergration… a cool feature, much needed by some, but I tend to just play live into the daw as if it’s a tape recorder anyway (I rarely even sequence via midi) so it’s not stuff I need personally

either way - it’s August so fingers crossed eh?

Then I just want an updated FW where the arpeggiator works properly (or rather, as I would prefer) in back/forth mode when moving down a note (works fine going up notes but if you go back - the arp restarts and goes out of step… :frowning:(( - and no, none of the options in the menus appear to fix that), I can’t use it as much as I’d like for this reason (Juno 60 works just right for up/down/back/forth - always stays musical and ‘locked’ never forces an extra step in… )

You can do this already today using the Sub Phatty Editor in combination with my interface. Except for the Arpeggiator and Sequencer, this will give you an overview of the Knob positions for any patch in your Sub 37, which is very helpful.

As an FYI…I was advised by Moog last week that there is no ETA for the Sub37 editor.

Thats a shame I was hoping it would arrive August, I wonder how long the other Phatty users had to wait from product release to editor release. Might be best to forget about it for another quarter.

what a pitty. i wait also for an update to teh firmware in the sub phatty for getting polyphony with my sub37
