Well spotted, already looking forward to this

[XysteR]

Awesome news! Just like his other instruments - I'll be all over it on release day

[The_G]

So a stripped down version of Predator 2 or something different?

Awesome but sad at the same time..

This reminds me of how far still must do our sdk to keep up with these days

Anyone know of it will be a predator RE update or a whole new device???

It's a new device according to what they said.

It's a new device according to what they said. They would have said update if it was otherwise.

Good news that it's a new device. If they're using the new SDK and upgraded Predator with it the rest of us who are on R8.3 and below would have yet another RE plucked from our purchase power!

Is it bad because that just made my day? (Not the bad part, but predator getting sample import) imo I think people should upgrade. Personally it feels like a whole new world for me

I'm only saying it's great that they're making it a completely different device so that those of us that haven't upgraded yet still have the opportunity to buy the old Predator. There was a big thread on how the new SDK being used by devs for upgrades shut the rest of us out of the older model, so it's good to see Rob Papen releasing this as a new device. If that was their motivation I'm not sure, but I will make sure I send them a message letting them know and will seriously consider buying to show my support. I'm not ready to upgrade Reason yet, but I'm only one version behind and shouldn't be made to miss out this early.

Honestly that's a cool thing for them to do on their part, I feel like nobody likes being excluded from REs

Actually, Rob posted in the Rob Papen User Group on Facebook that they are updating the Predator RE with SDK 2.5!
Not sure if that will be in addition to delivering Predator 2 separately down the road...? But he said it will be including some Predator 2 features in addition to some features that SDK 2.5 allows.

It can't even keep up with original Predator 1, which is quite old already.

When I understand Noel's post on Reasonistas correct there will be an update of Predator RE to version 2.0 with SDK 2.5.
Later in 2017 there will be a new synth from Rob Papen with other Predator 2.0 features, maybe morphing and custom oscillators, who knows.

Here are some more details about the Predator-Re update directly from Rob himself:

1. It is a free update, but only compatible with Reason 9 since Re SDK 2.5 is not compatible with earlier versions of Reason.
2. Added 64 new waveforms, new unison modes, improved reverb code, drag and drop for the mod matrix and a range of cool new presets.
3. New waveforms are built using Predator 2.0. Rob also analyzed the JP-8 saw and square for the waveforms.

Thanks Noel ' & this is why Rob has such a Good reputation

[Marc64]

Predator is my fav synth and I will be looking forward to the update

[fieldframe]

Really nice to see one of the first major REs that came out getting updated in 2017, taking advantage of some of the newer SDK features like nested menus and drag-and-drop. Thanks Rob!

I am dying to use rob papen a wave modifier like the PM setting on a user sampleeeeee either way il be excited for the update AND OR a new RP device

Can you ask him if any of his work will happen r the waveform modifiers in conjunction with sample loading
