Fenix Q&A
Here are some answers of some questions I get
1-Fenix 2, Fenix XL Rumours:
After we stopped with producing the Fenix we hear rumours about the successor of the Fenix.
We want to try to give an answer at these rumours.
1- Will there a Fenix 2/3 and or Fenix XL. The answer is: We don't know. It is no problem to design these units,
but producing these will cost a lot of time and storage space, and these we don't have.
Actually we have already proto pcb's of new modules ready. So i think the change for a successor is 50%.
2- The successor will be an add-on for the fenix. Maybe but also maybe not.
3- The Fenix XL will be available only for Fenix owners. The answer is NO. If we came with new units, it will be available for everybody but in a very limited edition. We hope to make a decision before half 2009.
2-Will there be an update that gives us a bit more information on the specifics of the instrument.
It looks bit like a sequencer and there are some nice sequencer demos on the page as well.? The prototype is a modulair sequencer and there will be new proto of the modulair sequencer and i am working at a first proto of an analog modulair synth.
I cannot tell you any specs because i want to use the proto's for testing differents modules. It will be a strange configuration of modules.
If the proto's are finished and tested i will some information at internet. However if i ever start a small production run this unit will be different as the proto.
3-I've been noticing your posts to Youtube and have noticed a Sequencer of some sort that you guys have created.
Is this for private use or do you intend to create a small run for folks to purchase in the future?
It is a modulair sequencer we made just for fun and for pricate use.
Maybe we decide before half 2009 that we run a small production run.
4-When can we expect an update that gives us a bit more information on the specifics of the instrument.
I will try to give an update of the prototypes end of jan 2009.
5-Will the sequencer came out first?
I am working second proto of the sequencer and 1st proto of the synth. I will not bring out firstly the seq and then the synth or reversed. Mayby i bring out both or only one.
6-What will be the prics?
I don't know the price, because i don't know what i will put in the unit.
