But not resizable it seems (or I missed it). Too small for me on my 27" screen.

The lanes modulation are per voices ?
Hi There,

Sharooz here from Audiaire, the developer of Zone. To answer your question - Yes you can sequence parameters from either of the oscillators, sub or noise generator independently in Zone.

Hi There

Sharooz, the developer of Zone here - the GUI is indeed resizable up to 200%. That particular option is between the Glide and Unison knob in the top menu toolbar.

Hi. We're hoping to add NKS integration soon. It's been a commonly requested feature.

Thanks. That was pretty hard to miss, but somehow I did.

I might have missed something, but how do you choose where to install this (Windows 10)? When I run the msi I get an option to click 'Next'. On the next page I can choose 'Back' or 'Install'. I see an 'Advanced Installer' label, but cannot see any options underneath the label.

No option for install,just sticks it in

C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins

Looking to adjust e.g. env amp to respond to velocity...
In fact, I'm looking to find a way to have one of the OSC not responding to velocity.

One thing I'm really missing is independent pitch sequence for each OSC.
The work around could be to have an option to "snap" the value to note instead of percentage within the Lanes.
That would also give the possibility to have different x rate and length sequence for each OSCs.

It sounds like you've made up your mind but Isn't the idea behind a creative tool that you make your own unique style of sounds and not stick with the ones in the box? There are plenty of 'musical' synths around. ReFX Nexus is good, have you tried it?

Hi, you can of course adjust the coarse and fine pitch of each oscillator independently in the grid sequence by simply dragging their labels onto their own lane. We are working on a snap pitch value for the coarse osc tuning so stay tuned.

It has the most amateurish installer I've seen since ages.
Not only that you can't change the install path (who the heck has a large enough C drive to install everything there?) - the path isn't even shown within the installer!
You run the installer, press install, press finish, and then you have to look where it is.
It creates an Audiaire folder inside C:/Program Files/Steinberg/VstPlugins that contains both, the VST2 and VST3 plugin. You have to move both to the proper locations manually. This has to be changed asap.

The plugin however is nice so far. I'm more of an instrumentalist than a sound designer, but the intuitive interface has made me make an own preset right away. The sound is also great. Wavetable editing would be great though.
Will test it for a while. Does anybody know when the intro sale will be over?

Sharooz, this looks pretty sweet!
Do you offer educational discount?

That would be really great!!!

What about velocity?
Is there a way to adjust the amount of velocity affecting e.g. amp env/filter env?
