"BlackSea does not only look uniquely exciting - it also brings us the the brand new OS 1.40!Pre-installed on all BlackSea, and of course installable on all Octopus machines, OS 1.40 adds several features with focus on live play. The detailed list is provided in the release notes document.
The OS can be downloaded in the service->OS software area of our web site.
Some of our favorites:
- Step Length multiplier, to have steps play up to 8 full notes at normal track speed
- Increased resolution of the MIDI CC stream, with CC messages sent in-between steps
- Page EDIT mode - a toy in itself!
- Step selection stores, to quickly switch between groups of selected steps
- Step selection inverse editing - you just have to try this..
We are very proud of the new features and the new OS. The true merit is once again with our user community, whose engagement and commitment was once again one of our main sources of inspiration and energy in the creation process. Thank you for that!
Finally, we would like to wish you and your families a wonderful, peaceful Holiday Season, and are looking forward to the new year, which may bring you all the blessings from above and within.
Yours,
Marcel + Gabriel"
