I'd have to think about that one... on one hand, it's a specialized host/development environment that doesn't require the same type of features as a sequencer would.FrettedSynth wrote: Build complex structures with low level modules like in sync modular IE: new filters, osc's and much more. then export to a VST or VSTi.
Still sounds like a rotten deal huh? Nope
I'm sure he will repair the audio drivers soon, ASIO or not.
But on the other hand, if you're developing what will eventually become a VSTI and testing it with a keyboard, it may seem tedious to test - or require you to export to VSTI repeatedly and launch a different host in order to play it with its full potential.
As was noted, Synthedit already has ASIO output, as does SynthMaker (I believe it was a rather recent addition).
Fortunately, Steinberg made the ASIO standard pretty "open", compared to the way the Props have locked up ReWire and REX files, where they basically told freeware developers to go away.

but this doesnt really sound like a "host" it sounds more like a synth creation suite...
perhaps for that purpose it may be worth it.
how does the quality stand up to synthedit?

Yah I'm not saying the audio driver don't need work (as the developer has already stated to me) But this one has a lot of potential, either that or I'm just plain Old.
I started using Sync modular when it was first released, Was sick when Dr Sync was bought out by NI.
But I took the free update to reaktor anyhow
Working with Sync to me was plain fun.
Not saying I dont love Synthedit, I have used it since before save as VST ( hehe maybe them versions will be collectors someday)and still will continue to use it.
Synthmaker I have not used too much yet,but will
Sync modular, Reaktor, SynthEdit, Deltasp and synthmaker on the same machine Oh my I cant hold her she is going to BLOW!!!
Peace

Midiworks you are a moron! This thread is malicious and it only does undeserved harm to one certain developer and his product.
It's obvious which 'host' you are referring to.
This application has it's own low-latency system (called 'AudioX') which works with any soundcard so you neither need asio nor wdm. Depending on your soundcard you can easily achieve latencies well below 10ms without any problem.
Buy yourself a proper soundcard instead of bashing other people's software! And next time get the facts straight!

Maybe you dont have a fast enough proc? The installer says its ideal proc is 1500MHz and preferably 2500MHz or higher. I havent even tried it myself as I am still working off an old P3-1GHz.

I think the "old master" would have said it best by saying something like "Those of you without ASIO clap your hands, the rest of you can rattle your nice sound systems"

how can you compare a plugin-format to an audio-interface? Where's the connection? Why do you care how your sequencer communicates with your soundcard as long as it works? Do you really think you've gort something like an argument there? *scratches head in utter confusion*

the ads are in fact annoying - that asio-thing is hilarious bullshit!
(I've got really fast fingers - if the latency is short enough for me it should be short enough for most of you whiners
)
