If you really want to use Cubase for patch recording (a pure SYSEX-editor
would be a better choice I think), make sure that you allow SYSEX messages
to be recorded in "MIDI filtering". Then it's just to record the output
into a track.

Hello !
thank you for your help! i\ufffdm a rooky in these sysex & midi filtering(?) 
things...
i think i will do it with a pure sysex editor- as you said it is better. 
perhaps you can tell me about some editor. are there some free ones 
available ( on the net ) ?

So Daniel, when are we going to get some hints about future Elektron
projects any time soon?   I realize that there may be any number of
compelling business reasons to keep this under wraps until closer to the
release date, but I'm curios none-the-less...  Just some little tiny hint?
A minuscule teaser?  :-)

Elektron musical equipment."  This implies plural equipment/multiple
machines. 

	http://www.elektron-esi.se/ looks like a generic site for the company that
will one day sport links to the plethora of other Elektron products out
there ;-)

	The above web site above used to also contain the following line: "A
project for a new unique sound generating device have started, but is yet
to be revealed. It will be of a totally totally different concept than the
SidStation (and any other synth actually)."

Sounds exciting!

I prefer the editor in Cakewalk. I don't like the rest of the program, but
the SYSEX librarian is so great in it's simplicity. Does exactly what you
want it to without complicating it more than necessary. Don't know if the
SYSEX librarian is included in the version freely available on their
website though...

You could also try MIDI-OX which is a great MIDI utility, and diagnosis
program for PC. Even if you don't end up using it for SYSEX storing, you
can learn a lot about how MIDI works, and what is actually send from your
synths.

:)

No, I'm sorry I can't give any hint on what it's going to be just yet.
I estimate the first details could be given around new year. We hope to
have the product ready in March/April next year. All I can say is that it
will be something totally different from the SidStation, even though it
will be as original and unique in it's own way as the SidStation.

And - no - we will not dig up some other old chip for this one! :)

The SidStation was what I always dreamt about doing. A synth that gave the
SID-chip another chance to play a role also in todays music - outside the
C64 scene. The SID-chip is the coolest chip ever made. But this business
have given us a chance to also come up with other ideas of what could
spice up the music scene! So why not take it...

You're right! :)

It's very empty as it is right now. Just there to show something more than
the boring Apache "Yes - it worked!"-page. We will do a proper site.

Some day.

After the SidStation site is redesigned to fit our new graphical image
that our upcoming advertising will reveal. (Yes - we have a new logo!)
