I remember doing 2 tracks entirely in XILS 3 LE for the last (and afaik only) XILS-lab song competition, which already has been a long time ago.

Time for a new competition?

I gather that this LE version does NOT include the sequencer editor though? Too bad, I was very interested there for a minute... I'm a bit of a step-seq hoo-er.

Not quite sure if it´s the same like in the bigger version but there is a sequencer window where you can drag stuff around even in the LE version. Pretty funky actually.

Ah! May be worth a try then! Maybe the info I saw on the Web was actually for LE V1... thanks Halma!

Looks like this:

And yes, it is definitely worth a try. This seq can do some nasty s**t and sounds pretty dope. Not your average one.

Bought it, love it. One of the better analogue emulations I've heard and used.

At this price? Amazing. I don't have much use for analog stuff, but this one models a remarkably flexible instrument, and sounds good. Even if the exact same version turns up in Computer Music magazine, I won't feel cheated.

NO CM version will NOT be able to load expansions banks, or external presets.

CM version also doesnt include the sequencer, as well as triggers handling/management ( except pin matrixes )

Hi Niels,

I must admit that I was thinking about a new competition recently

When, how I dont know. Atm the LE V2 takes all our attention and work. As it sells like pancakes, it also requires a lot more support : The price of success. But there could be another competition indeed

Thanks. As for the CM version, see my post above, it wont have all the features of the LE ( *A full featured incredibly good sounding analog modular synthesizer for the price of a beer* as I read on another forum )

Thanks DjShire

The Xils3 LE V2 is the result of more than 6 years of continuous development in the depths of the labs. If the oscillators sound so authentic, and 99.99% aliasing free, its because of the modelisations techniques that Xils patiently improves year after year. And you'll find similar quality in all Xils-Lab instruments. Same with filters etc etc. Thas why Xils instruments sound unique.

Yes you can fully edit the sequencer in the LE V2. I'm currently working on a sequencer tutorial for the manual. And another one for the Spring Reverb/

Did you catch all the typos in the GUI? I saw one or two in a (this?) thread, but not the one when you enlarge the sequencer pin matrix.

Thanks FLWrd. What typo do you mean the dot inside Seq.uencer ? ( Should be Sequencer indeed )

Other typos : *Sensivity* instead of *sensitivity* in the input modules transcient : Confirmed ( found by ENV1 )

For the mouse over labels for the two outputs pan parameters it works ok for me : It indicates left and right as they should. Could someone confirm it shows EXT on some sytems ? ( Found by Amused )

As for the Spring Reverb mode 3 question, it works on my system in all my hosts, and I cant reproduce it atm. even if I switch and go forth and back several and many many times between the different reverb algorythms. So maybe this bug depends on other additional connexions ? Or could be specific config relted.. I'll UL asap a preset that allows to test the reverb on your system. Its a preset where the Spring Reverb is modulated by an oscillator. Effect guaranteed
