At the price you guys pay for these things.., anytime I see the phrase "available for purchase" assoociated with any Wersi upgrade that's software related..., it makes me shiver a little.

Is this latest upgrade soley software related? I see that it requires you to obtain two other things before you can even use it. Were those free upgrades or again at a cost to Wersi owners.???

I also wasn't in the least impressed by the demos either. My question is..., what's on showcase..., the new features or the person playing????

I must be missing something?

These latest Abacus demos sound even worse than the last sub-E20-circa-1988 ones we heard.

Seamaster I'm so glad you didn't really say what you felt

Maybe he just said what he heard...?

Bill, one of these days, instead of asking US, you REALLY need to let us know what you think about all this stuff that YOU post.

For instance, what is YOUR take on this? Does this in ANY way impress you at all? Most of the time, you stick this stuff up and it gets shot down, but you never let us know whether you put it up in horror or as a proud owner!

"What do you think" should be a question that YOU answer as well. If you think it sucks, man up and let us know

If you don't think it sucks... (no, you couldn't possibly think that, could you? )

If you read my reviews of OAS 7 both on this forum, and others, (Most folks on this site seem to go straight to the links rather then read whats been posted, which is the reason why I seldom bother explaining anything these days) you will already know what I think of OAS 7.

BTW; Keep the comments coming

With all do respect Bill you explained NOTHING with this post... You simply asked 'what do WE think". Well..., what do YOU think Bill? You're the one who has the Wersi. Do you have all the previous upgrades needed to even use this? If not do you think it's worth it? You keep asking what WE think and you're the one who owns the Wersi. How many Wersi owners are on this forum compared to Yammie, Roland, and Korg owners???

What do YOU think of this latest upgrade Bill?

To be honest, Bill, after listening to quite a lot of some utterly dreadful audio you have posted, I'm actually FAR more interested in what YOU think about these so-called 'upgrades' than actually listening to them

And I am amazed... considering the enormous amount of money you payed for the Abacus in the first place, what POSSIBLE reason could you (or any Wersi owner) have for NOT having all the latest updates, hardware and sounds?

Heaven forbid they are too expensive! You've been telling us forever how great these Wersi's are. But you don't have the latest OS and sounds? Doesn't sound THAT great to me (or you, or you would have all this stuff by now, eh?)...

Look, I'm sorry, but I would honestly EXPECT to get derided were I to come here, post that I thought some ten year old Casio W series arranger was the 'best thing ever' and post their dreadful demos as 'proof'! Why don't you ask YOURSELF if you think something from Wersi is dreadful BEFORE you post it? It would save you an awful lot of typing!

And if you DO think it sounds dreadful, why not post asking whether we think it is dreadful TOO? Because your generally uncritical take on all things Wersi naturally leads most of us here to think that you are proudly posting these abominations as if you DO think they are great...

And I would hate to think that of you if you DIDN'T

I think it's time Wersis were repositioned as entry level budget instruments. They're obviously just thrown together using generic components and shareware software so they should easily find a natural price point at which they can still find punters despite sounding like twenty year old Casiotones.

Check SZ and you will find my review of OAS 7 (The latest OS and which I own), as well as other posts that relate to it.
If you can’t be bothered to read them, then I am not got going to waste energy typing an explanation that is going to be ignored.

I have also posted links to various sites where I have posted stuff about OAS 7 which have also been ignored, so give me one good reason why I should write an explanation that everyone is going to ignore anyway.

The ball is in your court, try hitting it back once in a while.

Bill
