Update: the OS X AU and VST plugins available,
and since there are not many Mac users following this thread ( I guess )
here is the link
for the Entity AU and VST demo RC, for OS X 1.5+ and intel CPU
http://dashsignature.com/entity/Entity_ ... r2.pkg.zip
Same as for the Windows demo RC the PDF manual and the webpage are not ready,
when we'll have everything set Entity will be officially released, but you're
welcome to try the demo and report your impressions starting from now!

Thanks everybody,


Luigi

So nobody tried the demo on Mac yet?

Anyway here are two new audio demos, could you please evaluate these for me?

This first is a sequence of six "piano" presets,
the same chord riff over and over,
just to show off the sounds:
the EPs you listen are:
1) Baby Piano
2) Bells Piano
3) FM Piano (actually AM is used here as much as FM)
4) FM Rodish
5) EP Buzzier
6) Space Piano
