So as the prospects for the Omega fades, Steampipe from Erica Synths is making a resurgence.
Steampipe will be an eight voice physical modelling synth, primarily for strings and winds with its own style and sound.
Here’s a very short ( no sound ) snip from a discussion with Girts of ES done at a recent show in Montreal, with him saying the synth is in its final stages of development and is likely to ship by some time in early November.
ES is also scheduled to show at Roma Modulare today, and Machina Bristronica in two weeks ( thread on those shows ) so we may have some more news on this soon.
