Addistraktor sounds good ! I choose the name Abstractor to show that the synthi can do a lot of stuff like AM.

Welcome back!

I was always sad that the minisoftmusik synths didn't get more attention, they are pretty good (given that they were made with Synthmaker), the only thing that they lack are presets! I think with some skilled preset designers they could have had more success!

Cheers for this...having a lot of fun with it this evening!

Seems to be enough presets for me to get used to it fairly quickly - that's what I use them for really...

The presets are pretty good, I knew it was the minisoftmusik guy.

If it's Synthmaker, say "Ho!".
If it's Flowstone, say "Hey!"
If it's Synthedit, say "Hu!"
If it's C++, say "Ha!"

If it's realmarco, say "Waaaaah!"...

Ok, I've had some spare time to take this for a spin: on one hand I like its character, compared to UniretroPro the sound is more meaty & in your face....on the other hand, is it just me or there are a number of presets similar to UniretroPro's (same for some sequences)? Uni's sound has more clarity, but I think these 2 can make a good pair if the preset bank of Abstractor gets more unique sounds and less similar to the older plugins.

Any chance this will be available for download from a different site? This one (share online) keeps telling me: "Proxy-Download not supported for free access!"

I don't use a proxy server.

2 quick observations - again, compared to UniretroPro:

- CPU load is higher; I understand that in spite of having "common roots" these are different synths (like I've said, to me this one looks more like a new version of "Extractor"), but still, I think it needs a bit of CPU optimisation - sadly there are still ppl like me, forced to work on old computers.

- the presets of Uniretro are more musical; Abstractor has some nice presets as well, but then some sound a bit out of tune or eff key; so maybe a bit of time spent on polishing the sound bank would be a good idea. I know this is probably at the bottom of the "to do" list, but it hits you once you start browsing the sounds and trying to see how they'd work in a song format. Also, while we're on the subject, it would be (IMO) a good idea to have the factory bank organized by types - bass/lead/seq/etc). I don't mind no preset names, but grouping them would help a lot.

I hope I'm not too annoying

Anyway, best of luck with this project

If you have a newer computer you will probably face no CPU issues. But on mine you can see there's a difference.
