Some images from above and quite a few from the side (like below) if you can please dude

 

Alright buddy, got it.

 

By searching the word "disassembly", we can get some cool stuff :

You can even ask on the forum :

There are even entire video out there on Youtube where you can see repairs and teardowns for hardware synths

so did I get this correctly?

You will be able to have a vst version of the virus for example without any hardware ?and with the same sound and functionality??

if that's the case then it's insane!!!

 

Not enough quality, sadly.

And even more. But remember that you're still legally required to own the original hardware

 

I own these synths, but when we could have a softsynth equivalent without the problems and limitations from the hardware ...

 

pls tag me when it be ready

 

And I think it will be higher quality, not 24 bit thru wires into ADC, no noise..... So either 32 bit float or 64 bit float double... Yeah?)
Built-in oversampling (x2-x8)?

 

yeah my friend ;)

 

I took a look at the repo(s) and still have one doubt. It's enough with that external SDK to compile to a (minimally) working VST?
When would you need the ROM and in which format/connection? I don't know arse about hardware synths.

The VST2 SDK is no problem.

 

Nothing to add .... just wanne follow this interesting thread.

 

Let's say that a working Virus C plugin was made -- would that mean that other DSP plugins would be much faster to create because the process was nailed down or would it be something entirely new each time?

 

I understand! I guess I'm just curious if, if they have an emulated Virus C plugin, is that exclusively for that one hardware or the process is going to be different each time for every synth. Because if the process was the same for all synths and the only change is loading another ROM and a new GUI, like loading an emulated video game, that would really cut down on time. I suppose they won't know until they try.

 

Put a Donate/Support button I am ready to give some bucks to support you guys to pay for the coffee or whatever involved in this project. Sure with a little $ support of any interested by this project this will have more chance to happen.

 

Very cool, I’ve always been interested in the Waldorf Q and Nord Modular

 

You and me both. And a totally agree with a fundraiser to help fund the hardware synths or whatever else might be needed.

 

Yes. You'll need the ROM in order to get sound out of the VST, using a full copy of the EEPROM.
Getting that file would be up to you.

Probably yes. Let's keep in mind that at this moment the DSP emu itself has not been finished.
