I was poking around on the Sonik Synth 2 site, and came across this.
“Sonik Synth™ 2-SUPERSONIQUE!”
Home Studio Keyboards Magazine FR awards the synth workstation 4 out of 5 Stars!

"The bank of sounds results from a cooperation between the Italian software designers of IK Multimedia and the American sound developers of Sonic Reality, who specialize in making top-class sample CDs. The best of which is made from synthesizers, with a collection of any kind of vintage sounds (Moog, Oscar, Arp, Prophet, EMS…). The atmospheric pads and other textures are superb and some leads have a power seldom reached in virtual modules. Very good guitars and basses too, when combined with amp simulators produce great realism. Pianos get by too, as well as violins."

"On the whole it's very convincing, although it could be difficult to be wrong considering Sample Tank®'s success! The sounds general colour is a little bit more centralized on synthesizers, but it doesn't lose on versatility. Since Sonik Synth™ 2 is a samples' reader whose quality depends mainly on samples' size, it's the perfect example of a virtual module that evolves in a spectacular way (it's enough to compare it with version 1!), according to hard disks size evolution. Obviously, don't seek originality or hard sound experimentation here, it's first of all an instrument "all-in-one"; intended to produce clean and rather traditional models, and this is successfully achieved.


At first I thought it implied there was a sound set upgrade coming,,, now I'm not so sure,, lol. Sorry,, anyway, I'll leave it up.

Cool find. 4 out of 5 stars eh? How much more value do you think we would have to put in there to get one more star? ;) Reviews are funny. What are they comparing it to that gets 5 stars? A single loop CD? Anyway, 4 out of 5 is still good. Better than just two thumbs up (two thumbs WAY up however is the ultimate). :D

Thanks!

Well, it won the Key Buy award. That's hard to do. Sonic Synth 1 didn't (although I kind of thought it should have since nothing else did what it did in software at the time). But, these things are up to chance. The important thing is that overall people have really good things to say about it and it is many things to many people. It's a vintage module, a virtual Triton/Motif, a more powerful Atmosphere, a buiding block combi synth, a sound design or sound effect making tool, a collection of acoustic, electric and synth instruments or all of the above.

Well the bundle did replace my 88 key Triton Studio.. :)

yeah i was satisfied with the Keyboard review last month. And as well, was disappointed that Sonic Synth 1 didnt win a Keybuy. Maybe because it was limited to four channels back then?
I still use a lot of those sounds even after the sequel came out. It was definitely the best purchase of my life considering what I got out of it.
