For those who still have any doubts on David McClains excellence, here's a short biography I found on symbolicsound.com (hope you don't mind me posting this here, David). So for all you sceptics and waverers: this plug-in IS real rocket science (in a way) 
David McClain worked for the past 20 years as a Senior Scientist for the Space Defense industry in Tucson, Arizona, teaching computers to "see in the dark." He has taken the knowledge gained from that journey into new realms where he now works as a Senior Corporate Scientist for Avisere, Inc., a company specializing in remote sensing and recognition of human gestures and gaits, with offices around the globe from Stockholm to Tucson and to Calcutta. All of this work uses massive amounts of signal processing (...)
He studied music as a youngster playing piano, woodwinds, and violin. However, the siren song of science caught his ear and he, perhaps wisely, decided to pursue physics as a career (actually astronomy, the other non-paying profession, but having had lots of computer experience (...). However, music is still a burning passion and especially electronic instruments capable of producing unnatural sounds.
David first started using synthesizers in the early 1980s at the same time as getting diverted to software development in Forth, Smalltalk, Lisp, and ML. He worked with Lenra Studios, where they made one of the first, albeit small, attempts to completely automate the soundtrack production for documentary films. DSP knowledge was later obtained in a big way while working for the Intelligence Services, specializing in geolocation by means of radio signal correlation, and untangling Faraday rotation effects of Earth's ionosphere. There David worked mostly at 10 MHz sample rates, so the 44.1 KHz in the studio was a breeze!
"A physicist, astronomer, compiler writer, mathematician, and amateur musician describes me best," says David.

heads up: the latest downloads 1.90 are corrupt (at least for me, i've tried twice). anyone else?

Any chance we will be seeing a synth from you in the future?

Looks the Kyma is pretty useful for the development process, eh: http://www.symbolicsound.com/cgi-bin/bi ... Discussion . 
Pretty fascinating resource, the wiki on symbolicsound.

Sorry, quality 6 available only in pro version.bmanic wrote:I have not noticed any degradation of the sound quality at all during the development. In fact, it has probably improved since the first 1.0 release.

hmmm I'm under the strong impression those dots indicate which band you're currently editing... what do you think?snooky wrote:I'm still wondering what those coloured unevenly chaped dots to the left are good for.
