The CPU usage is unbelievably low. There's a beta x64 version as well. Works fine for me.

How does Sylenth1 stand up to the newer synths sonically?

+1

Is it still worth getting?

I'd say it's the "Synth1" of the commercial arm of the plugin scene.

Depends on your sonic preferences, but I think it sounds pretty good and is incredibly well optimised.

What are its strengths and weaknesses?

arkmabat · Post by **arkmabat** » Sat Sep 27, 2014 8:02 pm

Pros: Low CPU, Great Sound, Nice GUI, Loads of Presets available etc.

Cons: Beta x64

More Pros: Does not need marketing, slogans, claims. Stands for itself. Simply put: a decent legend.

More Cons: Almost silent[h] dev. Responds to emails though. Part of the image. Hidden champion.

I am sure he is on this board from time to time and notices that the competition out there is growing rapidly... Probably all of them with a dedicated PW knob

In addition to the previous ones, one of cons is that if you wan´t to re-sell the product
in the future, the transfer fee for this "birthday hero" is almost 20 euros...

Ahhh... I didn't realize that. Sweet! So it works pretty well then.

It may not have all the bells and whistles, but still a great synth.

Not to play the party pooper, but it's a shame it isn't 50% discounted. With 25% off, and adding VAT to that, it's still very expensive for what it does compared to other often mentioned alternatives... that said, a lot of people will have waited for this discount to buy it, so. Probably the most used plugin in EDM music since years.

I wonder what Lennard Addink looks like

We all know what Urs Heckmann looks like, and since yesterday I also know what the developer of Dune looks like. It is nice to know what developers look like, it removes the anonymity
