Scope

Scope is a very cool visualizer. Extremely snappy response time with very little load on the GPU. In Reason 10, Scope does not appear to want a stereo signal, only mono.
Having a little bit of customization ability with the appearance and behavior of the oscilloscope is hardly necessary but would be fun.

Great synth! it sounds very dated to alot of modern synths, but if your looking to make classic trance tracks from around 97-99 this is perfect and why i bought it.

Great original sound! I was thinking about buying this synth for years, finally did and no regrets at all! Amount of presets is really satisfying too.

Corona by discoDSP is the encounter of (clean) Digital Operator Oscillators and (dirty) 'Analog' Filters with Distortion. This hybrid-concept became popular in the 80s with hardware synthesizers like the Korg DW-8000. Corona trumps (technically) their digital flexibility with exotic LFO shapes, [like X*(X*2-1)] adjustable envelope shapes and their dirtiness via different distortion types on two stages of the signal path plus a hard hitting limiter at the end.
Oscillator Section:
Dual serial filters:
A comb filter would be a very useful addition!
Assignable modulation sources besides the 3 LFOs and Envelopes:
the combined oscillators can be used as modulation source.
both can modulate as they are or as ABS operator.
Otherworldly effects or unstable tones are easy to archive.
Personal summery:
The sound of Corona is different... but on purpose! I can recall a patch in my memory right now. Never heared such a monkey-thing before. The overall sound sometimes reminds me of early ROMplers but with high resolution. It shines on stabs, vocal-like arpeggios, bass layers and strange FM-things.

Heyhoo discoDSP, .
i buy in the past, direct from your Homepage that "ThrillMe" Plugin!
-----------------------
I absolutly don't understand "WHY" you don't update this Plugin "unique" - "ThrillMe VST Plugin" to x64-bit??
ThrillMe Sounding - AWESOME - in my Opinion, there ist NO OTHER Plugin out there, that came NEAR BY, .
ThrillMe...., the only one that came in this direction is "Redoptor 2 from D16-Group" !
But when i do a A/B comparison, than ThrillMe ..."Thrill's me!!!" ...that is Unbelievable good Sounding Plugin.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please Update - "ThrillMe" - to x64-bit Plugin or "x64 vst3 "Peeeaaasssseeeee" !!.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 32-bit Bridge sucks...ok i can do a Pre-render to get the ThrillMe Sound in my FILE, .
but it is a Mixing Process, you know that.
-------------------------------------------------------------
THRILLME is the BEST Sounding Distortion Harmonics Overtone Saturator, i ever hear on a DAW, there is NO.
other VST, that Sound in this Way...Without terible Noise! Its a CLEAN Distortion Sound, only the Sound of your.
File and ...."THE TUBE" in that Digital circuit...its Amazing how that Plugin Sounds!!!
Believe me, "ThrillME" is a Burner, for Guitars, for Drums, Bass...for all you can use ist.
Its a Overtone TUBE Warm and Ultra Aggressiv Distortion Plugin, with Compression and Limiter properties, itpick.
out the accents of your Recordings and give "Ultra Power" to them...or decent "Warm Tube Amplification" to it.
-------------------------------------------------------
Belief be, there is no other Plugin out there, that Sound like "ThrillMe" .
This is so "Unique" and good in Sound, like a "LA-2A" or "LA-76" in its uniqueness!!! FACT!!.
I absolutly don't Understand WHY there is NO x64-bit Version out there!?
And i absolutly don't understand, why that Plugin get so little attention.
Check this Plugin out, it is worth any Penny, also in the 32-bit Version.
BUT, please dear Developers of discoDSP - Upgrade - ThrillMe....please!!.
Best Regards.

Great synth.
From the dates of other reviews, this bad boy has been around for a while... I use it a lot, for basses, comping/chords, wild synth tones, it's really versatile.
Glad I bought it.

OB-Xd - Virtual Analog Synthesizer
Reviewed By The Chase

A severely under-rated freebie.
I'm not going to say it sounds exactly like the Oberheims it is emulating, but the spacey, metallic shimmer is there. It's rare for a basic subtractive synth to be able to set itself apart and sound different from others while still being useful.
My go-to for retrofuturistic spacey pads, it has a classic sci-fi sound. It doesn't require much post-processing - just a touch of the clearest reverb you have and scoop out a bit of low-mids and you're there.
The only drawback that it has is the unison-detune being limited to monophony, which is a shame because the unison sounds remarkable in pads.
