I don't get the confusion.

Repro is the family, which contains Repro-1 and Repro-5..

so Repro v1.1 would obviously contain both Repro-1 and -5.

Maybe renaming the Repro bundle is in order, maybe Repro Circuits would work, for example.

A few modulation options?
Oh yes, and some FM too?
And, and, and.... it sounds vintage?
And this hasn't been done a gazillion times before?

And yet nobody at KVR is bitching?
It must be really good, then!
The thing is, it serves a purpose. Essentially, to emulate the original and it does an excellent job.

It doesn't do wavetables or granular or any of that fancy stuff. It's simple to program if for no other reason than there isn't a lot of options. So you have to get creative.

But if you want a Prophet 5, this is it.

That's why you buy it. If you want something else, you buy something else.

In a sense, I don't really care that it emulates a Prophet 5. I like it because it sounds amazing... so vibrant and alive and oozing character. It's a joy to play!

Use Repro-5 and adjust the voices to the desired amount between 1 and 8...

In either case, you don't buy it if you're looking for a wavetable or granular synth. You buy it for the sound, regardless of whether or not you think or care it sounds like the original.

I didn't say that.

And the Repro-5 should be named Repro-8

You remind me of Jack Nicholson here:

That's sick

I am nowhere near that level of OCD

With synths and sound details you have!
But that would make you a good sound designer if you take advantage of it

I have a different 'condition'. PTSD! Just to show that KVR is full of us, 'special' people!

Was your trauma synth-related?

Where did Repro touch you? I am assuming in the heart.

I wish I had a wavetable synth with the sound quality and character of RePro-5!

Repro-5 is not happy running in VEP. VEP 6 crashes when Repro-5 channel is selected. Repro-1 is working just fine. This is with the 1.1 release. Anyone else having an issue?
EDIT: disregard, I went ahead and deleted all the data files and .dlls. There was one older beta repro5 dll in the common directory. After reinstall, it seems to be ok. My template must have been pointed at the old dll.

u-he Repro (Repro-1 & Repro-5) released
