Seriously thinking about buying this when it comes out. I'm good at making a synthesizer sound like... well... a synthesizer

Imitative synthesis is something else and takes a lot of patience and discipline. Hats off to you!

I listened to all of your tracks. Great stuff! I especially liked the metal percussiony sounds. I hope those are included in the bank too.

Amazing stuff!

The arrangements aren't too shabby either - is that all Zebra, no outboard compression, reverb, etc.?

Yes, please!

Thanks again everyone!

Yes, you are good at that. Your tracks always engage my attention. However, I don't know if what I have is patience and discipline, more like... obsession? I dunno, perhaps it's a fine line.

"Happy accidents" notwithstanding, in MY experience and observation, there is a correlation between obsession, and accomplishment.

Many "a fine line" between a 'start' and a 'conclusion'.

I'll be buying this also... for the same reason.

Thanks Hakey!

It is all Zebra, in that all sounds being generated are Zebra. I forgot

that there are some reverbs(I found five) on some of the instruments - mostly the strings. I also had an iZotope Ozone 4 on the master channel, just using the maximizer(I think that's what that module is called.)

Anyhow, I've uploaded a dry version, without the reverbs(which were ValhallaRooms and one Ariesverb) and the Ozone module.
The only thing I've got on this version is a Parametric EQ, which is ever so slightly rolling of some lows and highs, just to spare your ears from getting fatigued.
Without the reverbs, it kind of sounds like you've got your ears right up against the violin section...not a very comfortable place to be...

Dry version:

Yep, Metal percussiony sounds will be included. Now that I recall it, Metal percussiony sounds were actually what made me decide to get Zebra.

So, if I'm understanding you correctly, I'm not alone in this world...meaning, I buy neat things under the influence of patience and discipline as well.

Yes, I am extremely patient and disciplined in my compulsiveness to procure neat things.

these patches sound amazing, and your compositions skills ie s equally impressive.
