Yummy. I think I want to check one out, and if it sounds as good and is as flexible as my rack, I want one.

I'm sorry but I have to deny the possibility to upgrade existing Q's to the
Q+ since the Q+ got a redesigned main board, a redesigned voice expansion
plus the analog filters and it needs a new bottom plate, too. It would be
simply way too expensive to offer an upgrade path since the entire internal
hardware plus a part of the housing needs to get replaced.

Best Wishes,

Dear _____,
Right at the moment there are no plans for a rack version and indeed the
current board is too large for the rack housing. So I doubt this will ever
happen, but I cannot exclude this totally. You never know what our R&D guys
are coming up with next.

Best Wishes,

Joerg Huettner

seems like the Qrack's enclosure is really kinda small already, why not just make the case bigger(in depth)?

"Behind each analog filter is an analog overdrive stage to distort the filter output"

yummy!

stupid waldorf...
every six months its some new design, some exclusive design that you can't upgrade to... and waldorf's service folks... w00t! i mean, the company guys themselves are great people, but the american distributors... GIVE ME A BREAK! i wanted to upgrade my xt to a 30 voice but i didnt want to send it in... im a trained electrician, and ive done much more complicated things than the xt voice upgrade, and after weeks and weeks of emailing the guy he still wouldnt budge, i even told him i dont care about the warranty! "sorry, but its somethign that trained waldorf technicians need to do" yeah, more like you can't go without the cut you get on it to spend 10 minutes to plug in some new dsp board. even if its one that requires pulling ICs that still aint shit, im tired of waldorf's underlings "superior" attitude. they badly need to switch distributors....

*oh yeah, the reason i didnt want to send it in is that i have no desire to send in my XT and wait WEEKS to get it back, as ive heard plenty of horror stories, and also, i didnt want to pay extra for installation so it would make a little more sense to buy the upgrade, rather than sell my xt-10 and buy an xt-30 for $250 more, instead of $550 to send it away to fantasyland.

*soapbox mode off*

that red sure does look nice....

will it still have those damn velocity sensing knobs that jump all over when you try and tweak a patch?

I wonder when one of the mags will do a proper review on either the original or the plus model. None of the reviews I've seen even come close to doing these beasts justice. The new OS is soo nice, with the new filter types. Does thr �Q have the PPG filter type available? That thing really sings. Happy tweakings.

no PPG filter for uQ

(at least not yet, but knowing waldorf anythings possible)

SOS had about 4 Q reviews untill the OS got stable, and then about 1-2 more for uQ. they�re probly fed up with testing continually changing specs. i�ll laugh if they thest the Q+! would be nice though...
