Hi,

Crystal is one of the best free synths. Actuallly, it's one on the best synths free or commercial. But it's now a long time back that it got updated. Does anybody know if the development is continued. Not that I miss many features (well, one thing I miss is microtuning support), just that I am curious.

cheers, akj

i've always wondered why Green Oak stopped at just one instrument - good one as it is.

I believe Glenn works for somebody now.

Or why did they stop updating it? It's a CPU hog, and it would be AWESOME if they could make it go a little lighter on the CPU. Maybe also improve the GUI a bit.
No complaints on the sound though, totally amazing.

but before that he had made a little delay too and some plugins for mac
i will look in my archieve

well, interesting. but even if he now works for spectrasonics now, they don't have anything crystal would be a ompetition to. or do they have plans for a crystal+?

well anyway the more the computer power rise the less crystal will use on cpu
and i just hope it will works under vista

I remember Glenn stating here somewhere that it wasnt dead, but he would work on it as he had some time.
