Nice one, Would you mind sharing how the patch is setup?
I'd like to try and see how close I can get with the old filters.
Some sort of before/after comparison.(for us non beta people..)

excuse the live playing

this side of the new Zebra excites me the most

used to have to coax it in that direction, now it just begs to go there! Zebra just got sexier!

if you bought Zebra would you get the 2.5 upgrade for free.

You crazy young fool

I believe Urs to be some sort of hypnotist. I too have tried Zebra, and Uhbik for that matter and neither of them were for me. I still want both of them however. Curious.

I hear ya and I actually read through most of your thread regarding Zebra from a few months ago. I had the same experience as several others did - it took a few times with demo before I "got" it. Initially, I would load up the demo, flip through some presets, tweak some parameters, and think to myself that it sounded good, but that I also didn't really need "just another" soft synth, even though the idea of virtual modular really appealed to me. But, then I started to really notice the attention that it was getting and figured that I must be missing out on something, so I started reading through the threads, watching the vids, etc. over the past few months and just generally watching the way Urs operates. That's what prompted me to spend some serious time with the demo and the owners manual and the lightbulb went on pretty quickly!

BTW - those 2.5 demos sound real purty! Sounds like I made a good investment!

Something about some of the 2.5 snippets almost puts me in mind of the Virus (at least, going from memory from when I had a TI here). Kind of have that dusty, fizzy sparkle to the filters at times that reminds me of it. DJ's clip kind of made me think of an OB-X in unison mode. Great sounding stuff, at any rate.

Wait till you hear the next version
no need to wait... here is another audio snippet showing an improved high end quality with one of the upgraded filters in 2.5 (straight from Zebra, and no Zebra chorus or reverb):

yes, this should make the virus vs zebra threads more interesting
