Congratulation to the winners !!

And a BIG THANK YOU to all the participants and voters (and of course to Lotuzia ....)

Contestants : WIP : If its not in your PM box or in your MailBox ( I choose to send some emails when possible as my PM box is a bit full ) it will be soon

Thanks again to all

It worth to ask

But the answer is no : only one voucher can be used at a time and the XILS 3 LE upgrade is also based on a voucher.

makes sense. it is a very sweet deal already.
we'll see then how it goes this month. but I sure could use a second envelope and a dedicated lfo, and s&h, and that 3 pole filter. it does have the promised 3 pole filter, right? mmm...
and if it had a second filter! even more mmmm, what a sweet analogue-ish machine would that be then. mmm.
or perhaps not even a second filter, but if the current one was multimode instead of just lp! mmm...
/dreammode
haha, but the original vcs didn't have any of this. it's certainly great as it is, but one always dreams of more.

Well no rush but the promo on the Xils3 -> Full version upgrade ( wich is due to the release of the Xilsistics soundset, by your humble me

) ends at the end of the month of July, so it might be a good idea to not delay too much your purchase if you're interested in it

Else I "think" I've now sent all coupons to all the people that I could join ( either by email or PM )

If you feel you have been forgotten, just join me by mail or PM

Also : The four first winners should now decide wich free soundset they want from SOUNDSDIVINE OR JULIAN RAY.

The first to choose is Penguin, then BobbyBobby, then Aresko, then . erf Julian himself (

)

Please Penguin indicate your choice first : SoundsDivine or Julian

Already own the SoundsDivine banks so Julian is my choice

Looking forward, his track was amazing in the contest!

Ah, thats me getting confused as I didn't realise there was a special on- that is a good price

Now just have to sort out getting my LE properly registered..

Good job winners! You obviously deserve your spot as voted by KVR members "and" XILS men, you guys made some great music! I had a ton of fun with the contest and enjoyed the pressure to get my song done as quick as I did. I'm also glad that I was able to show that these synths can do dance music as well since there were only a couple of dance music submissions and also no dance music demos on the XILS website

Obviously big thanks to the XILS men, contestants, and the voters!

Great time everyone! Winners...enjoy your new instruments!

Cheers!

p.s. The full 320kbps version of Knossos is on my Soundcloud page if anyone wants a good download of it

Hey Airyck, your track has really been growing on me - I'm listening to it right now. There's one point where it kind of reminds me of Steve Duda's latest release "Fish". I find myself thinking, "Queens, don't do it with Jacks, don't do it with Jokers, don't do it with Kings..." But it's just for a moment, and then it's all you. I'm quite surprised looking back on it that the top four ended up being rather laid back, chill-out pieces - I wouldn't have bet on that. Anyway, Knossos totally kicks! Dance is infectious...

Used my 20% off to get Xils3 LE - waiting for 'Fulfillment'

I didn't need any more VA's!

Cheers!

PS Glad to see my first choice win!

I was really interested to hear what people can do with synths I own, PolyKB II still intimidates me - but I'm sticking with it because of the sound quality!

ftech · Post by **ftech** » Sun Jun 05, 2011 9:42 pm

Congrats to all the winners

job well done!

Don't know about anyone else, but I'm finding that since entering this comp I am using Poly KB much more than previously. I think I am finding it to be a great all 'round synth, whereas previously I treated it as a bit of an 'exotic' plug in.
Now, bring on the Xsynth
