It would be interesting if you can explain how you arrived to such a conclusion....
Btw, synthmaster is a Synth, not a tool for creating VST.
I think it was a miss-troll. He was probably meaning SynthMaker. :roll:

Maybe he means SynthEdit. In any case it is irrelevant.

Wow, there were some odd posts there for a few days.

Like someone put some funny juice in the water system and a couple guys drank WAY to much of it.

Apologies, I meant Synthedit.

It's a conclusion drawn on the admission that the CPU usage is very high.
so is Diva and Lush....
Why Diversion....

No problem. I was just curious.
Do you like Diversion sound quality and developer's goodwill?
This is one of the reason I own one.

I suppose it all depends on whether they're made with stock modules or not.

I haven't downloaded the demo yet, so can't answer the bit about the quality. I'll do it shortly and maybe even write a review but if someone wants to charge $160 or whatever it is for a high CPU monster, then it had better be well above average.

Anyway, surely sound quality is mostly dependant on my D/A converters and how they interact with the code. None of my software suppliers can expect a premium charge for the hardware i've paid for.
Download the demo then.
You are commenting about one of the most outstanding sound quality synth out there.

Btw. Your comments are quite unusual for a newbie as you called yourself in another thread.
No bad indeed.
Looking forward to your review :wink:

I'm not even sure that that last sentence means. Suspecting Synthedit because of high CPU use without bothering to download and demo it is... :smack: A few moments with it and you'll realize the CPU use is due to a very high quality sound, not because of a developer tool. If it's done in Synthedit I'd be shocked.

Based on what? Have you ever developed a software instrument?

I'm a newbie to KVR but not to music software.

My review will be honest, fair and commensurate with it's pricetag.

And as far as I know, Diva is built of purpose coded C++ modules. I don't know about Lush but it's probably the same.

And even then, I think they're over-priced, as is pretty much all music software.
It all depends how deep are your pockets, quality understanding and your reference points.
You may be interested in Spire or Helix as well. Good sound and less CPU. Try it.

So what would be a fair price for a great software as Diversion or Zebra and what rules you apply to determine that fair price in this software market?
I think Diversion is just below its fair markets price IMO.
You should be looking at some other softwares that are even more expensive than this one by far and with less quality, but you like to be here instead.
For some of us that have a legitimate financial problems there are great free softwares, and not only in music.
I too I can't afford some of the high end programs but I rather pull myself up the ladder rather than pulling down the rest of the world.

You have a good profession and an important one in these times. Do your best and you will meet your golden opportunity.
