no kidding, hence all my bitching and complaining about the ...werks.
the boxes look great from the outside but they are so under powered,
it makes sick to see them this way. personally,i think the regelwerk
was put together to make use of all the the circuit boards that were
laying around the shop. they already knew the cpu and memory were
tapped on the schaltwerk, so why they built the regelwerk with the
same the processor and memory scheme, i don't know. in the design and
function process doepfer should of realised the regelwerk was gonna
be limited from the get go.

why they chose to release it this way is dumbfounding because now
they are supposedly planning a cpu and memory board upgrade for both
boxes. if they would have invested the proper time and resources into
the developement of the regelwerk with a new cpu and memory, doepfer
could have avoided the whole mess regarding these boxes. the
schaltwerk would have been ready at the same time as the regelwerk
was released. they would not have to play catch up and go through the
ringer for releasing them so underpowered. not to mention the bad and
negative image they garnered for releasing them this way and the 5
years of an upgrade is coming and totally ignoring the requests from
their paid customers who haved bought them.

will doepfer ever admit they screwed up, i don't think so coming from
their " all the boxes work as described in the manual" stance. i
think they should bite a big chunk of the bullet when it comes to
developement of the upgrade. the customers who have piad for the
regelwerk basically helped doepfer recoup some of their costs from
the schaltwerk fiasco. because of this both boxes are in a sorry
state. hold on we need a new filter last week to come up with new
sounds, but let's leave the controllers the way they are, who cares
about having only 16th notes lengths. please put some thought into
this mess and clean it up.

i am sorry for the bandwidth but this subject brings up the " i feel
i have been jooked " feeling everytime the S and R words come up.

patiently waiting for an upgrade so i can use them properly,
RM
