Same problem here. I haven't receive a license key from Uhe yet. Bought Repro 15-12 via Audiodeluxe.

Should be fixed... a few dozen licenses sent out... please let me know...Urs wrote:It's a glitch on our server. We're onto it.

can Repro-5 be more "optimized" regarding CPU performance?
I cant believe that it is way more resource hungry than Diva.

But then a strange fear gripped me

Beautiful sounding synth. Well done to all concerned.
One little thing that I've noticed in V6794 Win32 VST2. When you change the status (on or off) of any waveform on either oscillator there is a little thump the first time that each new 'voice' is played. Once a voice has been played, on the second time and after it is keyed there is no more thump. It even happens also when you switch off all waveforms. It's like the DC state of the 'virtual audio' signal prior to the filter is temporarily altered but only for the first time that note is played.

Perhaps Repro-5 can have draft mode like Diva?Elektronisch wrote:are you serious ?Garzita wrote:can Repro-5 be more "optimized" regarding CPU performance?
I cant believe that it is way more resource hungry than Diva.why you cant believe? because its not feature packed or just because you dont have a CPU to run that?
Unless this has been already discussed and for technical reason it's not an option.

Having a draft mode is not really an optimisation12deadpixels wrote:Perhaps Repro-5 can have draft mode like Diva?Elektronisch wrote:are you serious ?Garzita wrote:can Repro-5 be more "optimized" regarding CPU performance?

Uhmm... yeah, I am serious. and I do have the CPU(s) to run DIVA at its highest settings, with long release envelope settings, polyphony, sometimes even voice stacking and my system hits the low 80% range. I can live with that as I dont record in the box, I run it through a mixing board off to a HD recorderElektronisch wrote:are you serious ?Garzita wrote:can Repro-5 be more "optimized" regarding CPU performance?

But Repro-5 is way more CPU hungry than that, same Voice Polyphony and ADSR settings: boom, Ableton and CPU go red hot... and I dont even like my Snap, Crackles and Pops for breakfast.
I am unbelievably satisfied with Repro-1 and that to me justifies having bought the product, but I cant see any value in Repro-5 at this point with my current setup, which handles Diva, Bazille and ACE with no problems at all.

That's entirely possible. The waveforms come with individual DC offsets. Switching them on or off creates a short thumping noise, which is related to the DC blocker sweeping in onto the offset. The DC blocker however sits behind the filter. Thus the DC is integral part of the sound.Synthbuilder wrote:Beautiful sounding synth. Well done to all concerned.

Due to CPU savings we do not render unused voices. Hence when a voice is waken up when it plays a new note, the DC thump happens only then.
Similar effects also occur when playing low notes, then high notes as there are also pitch dependent DCs. As those are also quite prominent in the hardware, we attribute those to the natural sound of the thing.
After much consideration we saw no way to avoid those effects without an excessive increase in CPU.

1. Repro 5 is not Diva.Garzita wrote:Uhmm... yeah, I am serious. and I do have the CPU(s) to run DIVA at its highest settings, with long release envelope settings, polyphony, sometimes even voice stacking and my system hits the low 80% range.

2. Diva was released in 2011 (cpus were different, not as powerful)
3. Different synths architecture by nature to recreate theyr virtual analogs (if im right, maybe Urs can comment on that)
4. Sound quality, Repro 5 just sounds better (this is ofcourse subjective), more defined, sound itself is more detailed and clear. So even with same envelopes, settings, it doesnt matter, it will consume more CPU.

The filter cutoff range and modulation depths of Repro are much higher than those of Diva. Therefore Repro's "low quality" setting begins where Diva has it's highest quality setting. It's been a completely different challenge.Garzita wrote:But Repro-5 is way more CPU hungry than that, same Voice Polyphony and ADSR settings: boom, Ableton and CPU go red hot... and I dont even like my Snap, Crackles and Pops for breakfast.
