Thanks, Bulent. I'm looking forward to buying and using it.

The synth master 2.8 GUI is horrible. Sure, it has a ton of features but what good are they if the GUI is so small, pixelated, text is small and pixelated, and it isn't resizable? I'm currently using the satyatunes tranquil blue skin that comes with 2.8. its decent, but same problem with the small pixelated text and grainy graphics in many areas.

wish id waited for avenger and bought that instead, or falcon. both have beautiful streamlined interfaces and can be resized. I dont like synth master at all.

Please redesign the synth master 2.8 GUI... unusable synth. Its basically a sound bank i can tweak a few knobs. as for spending long hours using it for sound design.... no thanks. avenger, falcon, all rob papen synths, u-he stuff, all resizable and decent-awesome GUI.

one of the synth master 2.8 presets fried part of my expensive adam audio speakers. Had to have it sent in a repaired because of that. Most of the patches are way too loud and cause meters to go into the red. that and the terrible unrealizable GUI. I won't be spending anymore money at kv331 until these issues are fixed and refined so these instruments look good and work properly like many of the other stuff out there.

But you can still buy Avenger or Falcon you know

And you can always try to sell your SynthMaster license second hand in the Sell & Buy forum.

Each to their own I guess. I find myself tweeking synthmaster more than just about anything else. I can grab it here, I can grab it there... it's got functions others don't... It's a good size for a 15 inch screen... whatever.

Master Limiter

I always have one on, and have always, for this very reason (NOT SM specific I might add, just common sense). It's really not the synth's fault, imo.

Master Limiter Seriously.

Yeah, i wouldn't even think of opening a project without one. Seriously, it's an absolute must, your equipment, and your ears will thank you.

A new guy, just registered, and...

... three posts : three acid critics.

He registers to KVR, then... Boum ! Boum ! Boum !

Not even a least kind word to the developer. Nothing. Three first posts : three acid critics.

It's even a mystery why he chose to buy SM.

I see that now. Looks weird indeed.

I noticed that too. Must be working for a competitor

So why did you buy it ?

He's right about the loud presets though. The preset "LD Vector Lead TP" is INSANELY loud. It doesn't even sound like much of anything, so I think something might be wrong with it. "LD Vibrato Lead TP" is also far too loud, although not as bad. IMO those presets need to be fixed or removed.

If I recall correctly, Bulent wants to normalize the loudness of the presets in Synthmaster One. Probably that it is a good opportunity for him to do the same for the existing factory presets and expansion banks of Synthmaster (2 of course).

Anyway, it was not a reason for that guy to be so aggressive at his very first posts. There are way more courteous manners to present flaws or issues in a tool, especially when coming just after having registered. The tone of this guy has been extremely acid and totally discourteous, without a least kind word for the developer to at least tell why he chose his synth. Nobody in this life makes everything perfect, and the respect to the creators of the tools we use is a minimum when one has to present complaints. Told as this guy told the things it was like he was spitting on the tool and shouting at Bulent's face. That's totally disrespectful and extremely impolite. Even if there are flaws in Synthmaster (as well as in any other tool) Bulent doesn't merit such an aggressive tone. Especially from someone who comes from nowhere, just registered and was writing his three first posts.

"Hello Bulent! I'm new at KVR. It is my first post here. I've purchased Synthmaster because it appealed me, and after having purchased it I find that some presets are a bit loud, and some of them seem even abnormally very loud. Here are their name, if you could check: X, Y, Z... I would be happy to load them again in a few days after you have adjusted their loudness if you have a bit of time to do it in the next days. Otherwise it is anyway easy to make it myself by re-saving them after an adjustment here at home on my own copy when I stumble upon that kind of flaw. But it is sure that an adjustment by yourself would be very good for everyone's ears. I have also some difficulties due to the size of the GUI and it would be very kind from you if you could give a choice between several sizes in a next update. Cheers."

Let's admit that it is a way better manner to introduce the things, isn't it?

No, you're right. I'm just saying that that one preset would absolutely blow some speakers if you weren't using a limiter, which is really not something you want your synth to be doing.

Synthmaster One?
