Version reviewed: 3.00 on Windows

Great sounding synth, I use it in almost every track these days. It is very much like a Korg MS-10. I agree with their claims that the filter sounds great and is very musical. I love that FabFilter paid proper attention to the portamento as well... this is the first time I've seen a developer do that. The portamento feature on most VA plugins isn't nearly as playable or musical as on an analog synthesizer, but FabFilter got it right with this one.

One is a simple, well laid-out synth that is easy to use and very stable. The internal preset system is nice, the presets install to the "My Documents" folder on Windows which is a little different but you can move them. Works with my host's internal patching system as well. Registering the synth was easy.

FabFilter's thinking behind this synth is that pure, quality sound is more important than extensive features. I agree completely, however I find myself wanting a second oscillator more often than not. Typically I'll layer two instances together to achieve this, although programming patches this way is twice as much work. If FabFilter were to release a "Two" with features similar to the MS-20 I would be all over it.
