Title link takes you to the news post on Sonic State.

“We expected our core customers to be very excited about owning a new Moog synth that is also a tribute to Bob. Our Moog Authorized dealers anticipated this as well and have absorbed 90% of our planned limited edition model. We are very pleased with the market’s reaction to the Little Phatty, and I am confident musicians will be thrilled with the product when they hear it. It’s definitely a Moog.”

"Hey, I’m thinking it might be nice to add an occasional vidblog/podcast to the site. I dashed this one off as a trial. It’s a clip from my song The Flat Earth at last February’s TED Conference (Technology, Entertainment and Design) and I’ve added a voiceover explaining what I’m doing–a bit like a ‘Director’s Cut.’"

Click here for a Google translated interview of Joachim Flor of Waldorf. Replace "Whale Village" with "Waldorf" when you get there. : ) Here's a link to the original in German. This one sent my way via Dr. Georg Müller.

"AMAZONA.de:
What might we expect from the new Waldorf?

JOACHIM FLOR:
Of course there will be new Waldorf products... the future developments will be characterised by innovation, unmistakable sound, optimal ergonomics, excellent design, user friendliness and all that the name Waldorf stood for, stands and will continue to stand. But we'll let you be surprised. Our first goal is the winters NAMM 2007 in Anaheim!"

I can't wait. Something tells me Winter NAMM 2007 will be the most hyped NAMM in a long, long time. : ) Thanks for sending this one in Georg!

Update via Mr. Array in the comments:

"Wheee!

Here is another message, this time from Stefan Stenzel where he more or less confirms that there will be paid OS updates for legacy Waldorf products:

http://lists.waldorf.synth.net/pipermail/user-forum/2006-April/004774.html"

"Since we are not a legal successor of the preceeding waldorf companies,
we cannot provide further upgrades for free. However, rest assured that
the price we will charge for future upgrades will be reasonable."

"Looking at the Minimoog's amplitude envelope (Fig. 1) reveals that even with the sustain set to minimum, there's about 20-30 milliseconds where the sound stays at maximum level before the decay begins. There is no way to eliminate this short period of full volume sustain; it's part of the Minimoog's characteristic sound. It's also what happens to percussive sounds when you clip, limit, or compress them."
