I too would like to hear something as we are fast approaching a month and a thousand new comments since being told new firmware was on the horizon.

Had some fun in cue mode for the first time this afternoon.

Got my W/ today. After about an hour this thing is blowing my mind. Magic.

I had the same thing yeah, in my case the hex screws were slightly overtightened and caused the switch to shift to the left. I was worried I’d have to send it in because down was barely registering but then I checked the screws and it seems fine now.

is anyone else having issues in CUE mode? this is similar to other issues that are mentioned in this forum, but seems a bit different. i’ve tried power cycling and going through it a few times but i keep ending up with a similar issue.

here’s the issue i’ve been having: when i try to nudge a cue point forward with the toggle it works ok (i can hear the tape moving forward), but then when i try to move it backwards a few milliseconds it adds a new cue point as if were in PLAY mode instead of reversing the tape. w/ doesn’t leave CUE mode, but now the loop i’m auditioning is only a few milliseconds long. when i hit loop to exit CUE mode the module is stuck in that loop and I have to power cycle to get out of it. it’s a drag.

edit: is this something worth reporting to WR? i’ve never reported a module bug before so i’m not really sure how to go about doing that.

I haven’t been able to find this video when I search for this tutorial in youtube. Not sure if you have it set like that deliberately but I thought I’d let you know

Great video! This helped out a lot!

I should’ve held my tongue

My remark wasn’t productive (but really was not meant for you). To those who have been frustrated by various aspects of this product release: sorry if my comments were dismissive of your concerns, which are valid

Heads up that there’s a ā€œusedā€ w/ for sale over at MW if you’re super eager for one. Unracked, apparently!

I got myself the ALM Beast’s Chalkboard today. Mainly for switching octaves, but I couldn’t resist patching it into W/. Turns out it makes a pretty decent companion.

ooooooooooh good idea!

great idea! i have a tough time replicating tape speeds in THAT with ch 3 of Maths or Cold Mac’s survey, this takes care of it.

It works well in other modes too! It’s great to have some ā€˜control’ over the modes. And it also frees up Cold Mac to focus on other things.

Love the face of your O_c where’d you find that?

I got my O_c from user ā€˜holovicc’ over at MW. He made the panel himself.

Wow, that does look rather good. Rabid Elephant flew over my rader. Their LPG looks great too.

Thanks for the GAS :ok_hand:

This was a fun and really concise TT script I used to jump around in Nav mode adjusting the tape speed on each Metro. I utilized a telex output only for the ease of negative CV values. Adding duplicate values into the pattern was an easy way to bias the output towards the forward 100% speed and direction. Once a loop is going on your w/ jump to nav mode and patch Telex CV1 to THAT. Param adjusts metro speed.

Hi!
I don’t know if this issue has been reported before, but my newly acquired W/ misbehaves really bad when I control playback speed/forward reverse with an offset from Mutable I. Shades into ā€œthatā€ in NAV mode.
As you can see in the video when I reach zerobase and try to reverse the loop it freaks out. Just a second after I stopped filming the noise turned even worse… BTW second cable from Shades goes into ā€œThisā€ input on W/ controlling the cue point. In the video this is offset is NOT changes.

Total bummer.

Have you been able to successfully clear the tapes before now? And what happens when you press the record Button? Hope you can get this squared away.
