I SENT OFF FOR SOME MORE INFO YESTERDAY REGARDING THE SCOPE SYSTEM (I WAS INTERESTED IN THE SEPERATE CONTROLLER METHOD UNTIL I SAW THE PRICE!). HERE'S WHAT THEY SAID: Hi Steve, Thanks for your interest in CreamWare's SCOPE DSP Platform! SCOPE will be shipping for the PC in October, for the Mac in Nov/Dec. MSRP - $6500US for the complete hardware and software (incl. the development tools that allow you to create your own SCOPE "devices" - synths, effects processors, & mixers, as well as the ability to fully customize the user interface for any SCOPE device). CreamWare's control surface for SCOPE features a 3-octave keyboard, a number of user configurable buttons and knobs which can be tied to SCOPE devices for realtime control and automation, as well as a full color LCD touch screen allowing you to control extra modules (in addition to any modules displayed on the host computer). Estimated MSRP - $5000US. SCOPE will also interface with existing midi controllers, so you can customize a controller configuration that best suits your needs. Stay tuned for further news on SCOPE as the release draws nearer. We'll be announcing additional hardware specs and options, as well as the names of the 3rd party developers already working on plug-ins for the platform. If you have any questions in the meantime, feel free to contact us Best Regards, Russell Less CreamWare US Inc. email: russell@creamware.com ph: 604-527-9924 fax: 604-527-9934 PS - SCOPE is a "beast" indeed ;-) Germany has announced that the hardware will be significantly more powerful than initially anticipated, with 2.7 GigaFLOPS onboard even before any DSP expansion is added. This is roughly equivalent to having 10 P300s exclusively for floating point audio processing. For further details see the press release section of our website at www.creamware.com
