Daichi Laboratory (Ichiro Toda)

Surpreende a todos, merece mais elogios, motivo, todos aspectos! Simplesmente extraordinário! O meu Agradecimento pelas horas de emoção que me tem proporcionado em longa data.

New Synths comes and go but this little epic legend free synth still shines after all this years.

it is ugly and clumsy but the amazing sounds! the zillion presets - One of the best of all time.

Just plain awesome, I love this. It sounds so good it finds its way into all my productions. I only hope it will be upgraded to work on newer mac OS, I recently upgraded to Ventura 13.5.1 and it's not compatible unfortunately :(but other than that, LOVE IT.

Epic.

Literally better than 95% of paid softsynths out there. No joke.

Few can sound quite this good without a lot of work, the onboard FX are also really good.

IYKYK.

What can I say? I made my carrier on that synth - easy to program a patch or even a library. Simple concept out of clavia workshop but it works damn good. Interface may be a bit too simple for modern standards but hey - you can run it on even pentium III - yes 2000's machine :) And that simplicity makes it a workhorse for any project. Plus it has most growing patch library you could ever whish for a synth (even some of the original patches from nord have been rewriten for that one). This is a synth that you'll start your music journey with and keep it from now on in every project. Essential like a sampler and eq with compressor for electronic music production.

Hard to beat this when paired with Librarian by Neutrino Sky - checkout Youtube for full instructions for Windows. Unfortunately Mac users don't get the benefit of Librarian but it's still a mega Synth.

We should all be so grateful to have such a fantastic synth1, thank you, Ichiro Toda! I've had it for years, the simplicity, and the sound and community support for presets etc is great.

Pretty much everyone knows this is one of the most efficient heavy lifters. Lots of sound with minimal tweaking, hundreds of thousands of presets around. The real deal that some must not get is the QUALITY of the sound. Very few synths have achieved as high of a quality of sound, perceptually or even on a scope. Don't know how they did it but me and a gazillion others have used it in production environments for decades with great results. What makes it shine is the sound quality, ease of tweaking, arpeggiation and unison features. The only deficit is that it is ugly, and I wouldn't want it any other way. The few that have come close for sound quality are some of U-he's synths and Vital. Yes, there are new and interesting avenues worth pursuing (like additive synthesis, sample based, and hybrid synths), but this is hands down the best subtractive synth I've used.
