Dune Classic

[db0t]

Still would love to see Dune 1 make a comback as Dune Classic, it's such a different sounding synth to the later dunes, it shouldn't fade away in time <3

There were free versions with some music magazines, e.g, Computer Music, that should still be available. With CM, I think you can buy one issue and get access to their digital archive. Dune CM is a slightly cut down vesion of Dune 1, although I must emphasise "slightly"!

Not sure how many time we will be able to access those archives because Computer Music magazine closed on October 15 !

Think it would be easiest if it would just be updated to VST3 and kept alive like Hydra. Would make sense if it came together with DUNE 3/4 and also sold by itself, allowing for a cheaper upgrade path to DUNE 3.

Rob Papen recently launched Albino 3 in VST3, while reFX brought back Vanguard and I absolutely love both! There's a lot of old VSTS that have a very specific sound that can't easily be recreated with the modern flagship synths we have today imo. Totally for synth preservation, no matter if analog or digital

I'd even would like to see a TS404 VST for like 39 bucks or something along those lines. hehe

Progress is Progress. Dune is now at V3. There's nothing in V1 you can't do in V3

It's not about "what one can do", theoretically all synths work the same if that's the logic. It's about how Dune 2 was such a big departure, that it's almost a completely new synths with it's own sound. Noone says you'd have to use Dune Cassic..

Not going to happen

On the other hand, Dune 1 had that something... Dune 1 has sounds that I haven't been able to realize on Dune 3. E.g. The voc sound in the sample below.
