Yes, an e-licenser!

RP synths use it, you have to download the synth and download the Syncrosoft app. Works OK for me.

Nah as samsam said it used the soft elicenser. It's just an app you download or it will probably be included with the demo and you'll just activate when you install it. That's how it works with RPs stuff anyway. I think you need the dongle to transfer the license to another computer...

A computer would be helpful.

Does that mean you have a choice between the software elicenser and the Syncrosoft dongle to register?

Would be great, I really like the Syncrosoft key, very easy when I have to re-install something and not going through the challenge-response procedure again.
I must be the only one at KvR though!!

Hmmm a 3 osc 2 filter virtual analog for $250 or so. Hard to get excited or compete with what is already available.

There's a bit more to it. For starters it as all the Microwave XT wavetables.
Go here : http://waldorf.electro-music.com/microw ... dio-demos/ and listen to 'Shortened Days' : pure class !!

Does anyone here already have it?

I wasn't that impressed with the audio files on Waldorf website. It's great for people who, "must have the waldorf sound," and would rather a software than a hardware synth.

Synths take a huge time investement. Not just a money investment. Actually, the time investment is so huge, that even a great synth, like, ScanSynth, which has become so affordable, is only worth buying if you really, really want it.

Right now, I've only got the slightest boner for Synth Squad. Its really not on my, "must have," list because of the, "time investment."

For myself, I do better limiting my synths, than I do my FX, and other gear. Right now, I've stopped using all synths, except for two: Sugar-bytes Unique, and Cakewalk Rapture.

What I like about Synth Squad, is it is so different from Rapture, and Unique. The vibe, the ideas, just about everything in Synth Squad differs from the two synths I've seriously committed too. That would make the time investment, it would take to learn FXexpansions's new software, well worth it.

If the Largo, was a totally new idea, instead of repackaged/reworked ideas, I might be singing a different tune.

Yay for recycled Sampellls I mean wavetables of 20bit 1990's digital VA's.

Waldorf has great designed hardware & is really fun to use. But thats because its a fun hardware interface with physical knobs.

If I'm going to grab a plugin virtual analog i'll reach for a u-He/Lin/AAS/ the list goes on. If I want to use wavetables give me something crazy like DimPro/Rap that exploits them for more then the standard wave shapes. I have Operator for that.

WHAT? You must be joking... Calling Largo a Virtual Analog is the most narrow minded analysis I read around here. It is WAY more than a VA, actually, NO VA at all.

Say what? Neither of those do any form of wavescanning; they use static wavetables- one single cycle wave per table. The Largo has multiple waves per table and you can scan through the tables.

Largo is here!
