SoloRack

I've just tested v2.0 of this modular synth I didn't know about. I was surprised by the amount of modules it has and their diversity. The sound quality was very good judging by the presets. It looked promising, but when tried to build my own patch, which should be the most fun part, I struck a wall of unfriendly interface. Skeuomorphic graphics should be a thing a past (actually a long time ago) because they burden the sight of user with unecessary graphics. And what's the point of having software that looks exactly like hardware?! When you want to find a knob, module or I/O socket, you're constantly scanning across the sea of same gray circles, nut and bolts, redudant text, just to find/read what you're looking for. Also, when you want to add a new module the menu is located in the top-left part of GUI, not the most friendly location for constant mouse clicking. Every module looks similar, there is no color coding which would be highly useful on top bar of each module, so you can instantly know by the color what's the actual module. The silly background image, rack rails and solostuff logo on each module doesn't help the clutter either. But, that is easily fixable if the developer improves the workflow and makes it fun to experiment with all the modules provided. Until then it's mainly for the people who like to have (another) modular synth in their collection.

Superb modular with a lot of great modules made by a dev who know his stuff, coding & modular hardware.

the CPU footprint is light and the in.out module work like a charm with other cv synth or external world.

i could put a 5 stars if the ui become resizable.

on a 4k screen, it can be little.
