New Synclavier³ In the Works


via Synclavier.com

"What Is Synclavier³ - Mitch and I are teaming up to bring a new and exciting round of Synclavier® hardware and software to our very loyal customer base. The Synclavier³ Application for Mac OS X is a rewrite of the user-interface portion of SynclavierX using the latest and greatest Mac OS "Cocoa" framework. So it will work on future Mac OS's and it removes some of the limitations of earlier releases - such as the 9 GB hard drive size for example. Synclavier³ loads sound files directly from your Macintosh hard drive or network - no need to use "image files" or "optical disk images".

On the hardware side we have designed a replacement for the obsolete PCI-1 interface card that is based upon PCI Express, and is compatible with - hold your breath! - the latest Thunderbolt™ Macintoshes by using a Thunderbolt-to-PCI-Express adapter. We plan to make the software compatible with early Original Keyboard systems so that ORK customers with failing floppy drives can still use their system.

We hope to commission a production run of the new PCI Express card and adapter box during the first quarter of 2015. But we can only do so if there is sufficient interest within the customer community to justify the production expense. So if you are interested in taking advantage of this new hardware option you will need to place a 50% deposit on your purchase by December 31st.


Please read on for further information about these exciting new developments.
