well, I have been welcomed to the waldorf family by a mint condition blue micro q. It arrived today, about 3 weeks after I paid for the damn thing. I got completely what I wasn't expecting out of this piece of kit...got definitley way more than i paid for. In about 5 minutes, i was making patches that have been heard only in my dreams- so fuck off people who say that it's hard to get the hang of!  

well, i love it- and it's sounds will compliment my nova's sounds quite nicely in tracks to come :P

Didn't Norsez do a s/w editor for the uQ a while back? And I'm fairly sure you can get something for SoundDiver these days too..

hey, BS...

Knobs are nice, but they don't make the synth, hehehe. P's right, WAVEMORPHING is a gift from the synth gods... and the uq ain't got it. Still a wonderful little number, but the real Q is fuggin' awesome!

there are 2-3 s/w editors for the uQ out there. the ones i tried in demo mode didnt show all the parameters correctly, but again it was the demo version only so who knows... Sounddiver on the other hand does the job but i still never ever use it for the uQ except few times when i wanted to analyse patches done by others. everything else is accomplished by hands on tweaking. more spontaneous and quicker too probably.

Soundiver will sort you for an editor.

Yeah, mine makes that high-pitched sound too when triggered by MIDI. Someone suggested it was the power supply, which had a loose-fitting jack, but then when I got the keyboard version that runs off a standard power cable, it did the same thing. So far I haven't figured out anything else to do about it, but the noise does tend to get obscured once some sounds are playing.

But there is that fx issue. Better start a new thread.
