Yeah, this one need some beautifcation

Green and blue, doesn't go well together

Looks more like a Rack Extension than a VST...

The demo tracks did put me off quite a bit, especially track two and three made me think of some of the worst tracks I've heard in the late nineties (my brother was into Dutch gabber/hardcore back then)

I understand that I may not be the target audience, but I wonder if this is the best way to market the synth. I'm sure the synth is capable of more than that.

Indeed.

I'm saving for Hive.

*edit* on the fence with Hive so far

lol, was thinking exactly the same

Particularly the track by the 2 DJs allegedly behind its design

I felt the demo tracks were weak as well... Never a good start.

I guess I'm the only here liked what I hear, maybe not a full track of it.

Most ugliest gui ever

They can be as ugly as they want as long as they keep making the preset browser the new way

Yeah, I also have problems editing my Rob Papen plugins because of that.
All the knobs and writing are for young people with perfect vision

But the presets usually are the best of all synth develpers (imo), so I don't mind that I cannot really edit the synths.
RAW doesn't interest me too much though, I don't use that kind of sounds in my music.

Awful demo

Tricky-Loops · Post by **Tricky-Loops** » Fri Dec 19, 2014 4:33 pm

Sounds a bit too lo-fi (waveshaped) and looks a bit too retro...
20 years ago I would have bought it...

The demo songs sound like the first songs I ever made in my life...

If I'd buy a waveshaping synth, I'd prefer Z3ta+ 2 which sounds much better and has tons of features. But I already have it...

The idea of RAW is good but it looks and sounds half-baked...

Btw... the U-He Hive is out for public beta testing. The U-He GUI is IMO a lot better compared to this synth.

I also don't understand the idea behind RAW. RP could have just added these features to Predator and release it for version 2.0.

Blue 2 was great, but this one.... feel half baked indeed.

ps : can we stop mentioning Hive please? It's a good synth, but there's other thread to discuss it.
