réactions à la news Expressive E et Haken Audio dévoilent le synthétiseur Osmose

These days, we had to postpone the Osmose testing sessions with early adopters on short notice, due to the new curfew that the French government imposed since Oct 30th. It would have been fair to at least make a quick announcement that we wouldn't be able to deliver an update via mail in the usual monthly rhythm. We can only apologize for this. We will finally provide some new Osmose content via a mailing in mid-November.

To give you some insight, we are forced to organize the start of Osmose mass production from a distance. The starting shot for the production of the molds for plastic injection molding is due, then the setting of the tools, the manual assembly and its monitoring, the test benches and other measures for quality assurance. Due to the current travel restrictions and extended lead times, it is difficult to assess when everything is configured to our complete satisfaction after various test runs and samples being sent back and forth.

Normally we would have our engineers on site, which would compress all processes a lot in terms of time, but it's just not possible in Corona times. Fortunately, we are cooperating with a French industrialization partner on site who has already provided advice and assistance for Touché. Everything is manageable and communication is efficient as far as possible. It just takes longer than we hoped for.

In the meantime, we can only ask for your understanding and thank you for your patience and the trust you have shown in us.

Donc pour résumer : la production de masse commence, malgré l'impossibilité pour eux d'aller sur site. Un partenaire français déjà sur place et ayant bossé sur le Touché s'assurera du bon déroulé de la production. Cela prend plus de temps que prévu, mais ça avance.
