Agreed. If time is to be spent, spend it making the synth better. I like the default look anyway. Sylenth is one of my absolute go-to synths, what will make it even more valued to me is improved functionality, not skins.

I tend to agree in the sense that skins at the expense of functionality is not the way to go. However it would be a nice feature to have. The way the synth looks can affect how you work with it, what sounds you design and how you hear them - for example if it looks vintage with lots of wood and Moog-style knobs, you subjectively think of it as "warm" and "analog", where as a shiny, plastic/metal look with lots of bright lights and virtual "LCDs" makes you think it sounds modern and digital.

Also different skins might help you quickly distinguish between instances of the same synth, when you have many open at the same time.

darren

maybe ive got this all wrong but does the midi part you have sylenth 1 assigned to have any sysex data in there? not sure how you do it in logic as im a cubase 5.5 user but you can edit midi and it give you all the sysex data along with the note data, if you see program change in there delete it or infact if you want to delete it all but scroll all the way through to check there are no program change data as this will make sylenth 1 or any vst instrument default back to the beginning or whatever its program change is !

Hope this helps !

Cheers Martin

Is it just me or does is the Protamento not smooth in the 2.21 beta? It seems to move in steps.

Is this thing still in beta? Hasn't it been about half a year? Is this still a minor update or are new things being added now? (Swing in arp please!)

Support has been poor in the last 12 months or so. Always wanted to buy Sylenth, but that turned me away.

Eh ? Lennard always replies within a day or so to questions/problems here on the forum. All bugs have been ironed out by the latest betas and I don't think there's any unsolved bug left ? So I'm not sure what you mean with 'poor support' ? I assume you're referring to Lennard's policy to not respond to questions about future products/developments ?

The most recent post on his own home page is from January, 2009. If for some reason you were not on this forum and just checking his page out it would not inspire a lot of confidence. Almost two years between news updates seems like a lot. Is possible there is not much to say, and that everything is fine, but it would be nice to give the impression that it is still an active site.

I totally agree with that. Lennard clearly better does his tech than his marketing.

I feel like not updating the page might deter people from buying it. There's so much competition these days that people feel better knowing they're investing in something that's still progressing.

Just read this thread, there seem to be a couple of problems with the latest version and Lennar hasn't shown any interest since july... Also, yeah, I tend to check the website, nothing going on for a year or so. Also there are talks about an annoying memory leak bug which seem to have been fixed with 2.2.1. If you visit the website, you won't even find out, that there is a version 2.2.1.

At least just release what you have done so far with the bug fixes, memory leak, whatever. Geesh is it really so hard?

Thank God this thing is not challenge response or I would really be worried right now.

What problems are you referring to ? The latest beta is totally bug free AFAIK ?

If Lennard releases it as a final build right now, there'll be a 'H2O' pirated release for download tomorrow. I can't blame him for keeping beta statuses for quite a while. Better that than a dongle.
