Why is that a problem? It sounds like a grand idea to me, like what Equator does.yellowmix wrote: ↑Tue Dec 26, 2017 6:15 amAnother thing I want to add. Going through the patches, there were several impressive ones. But then I realized the bulk of the sound was coming from the sample oscillator. I haven't listened to the demos but I'd be wary of judging the synth that way since it could be a sample-based patch. If it's got an acoustic instrument sound like orchestral strings, brass, or piano, it's likely sampled.
Why not? I'm always up for a synth with a great sound and a good workflow. What form of synthesis is used in the oscillators is of less than no interest to me.
It seems perfectly reasonable to me and it won't stop me downloading the demo tonight, even though my only internet access is via 4G. If it was an issue, I'd download it at work. Having gone to the effort of installing the Signal demo (from Output), only to find it has just a handful of sounds from the library, I feel that was a total waste of my time, so I get why they want to include the whole 4GB here.Thomas@InitialAudio wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2018 2:49 pmYes I get the point, but by your own admission your not really in the market for a synth. I think for people that are genuinely looking for a synth a 4GB download is not a big deal and will download within 1 to 20 mins on the majority of internet connections. We want people that are demoing to know exactly what they are getting so they can make a more informed decision. Then when they purchase the product they have everything they need. No more to download.
In what way? I think it sounds very nice - full, detailed sound with enough punch to get by.
That's a very contradictory statement, in that it is a plugin instrument with full access to your host's sequencer. So what would be the point of simply replicating that functionality in the synth? I think the simpler it is, the better. If I need more than note on/off, I'll use my host's sequencer. I get that on stage it might be a limitation but I'd just find another part to play.recursive one wrote: ↑Sun Apr 01, 2018 9:19 amThe sequencer doesn't seem to have velocity and glide, pretty useless to me. I wish more devs realized that a sequencer/arp in a synth is not supposed to be a crippled replacement for a DAW piano roll, but rather it must be a sound-design/performance tool on its own.
One thing it will definitely do better is leave your finances in good shape. That you are comparing it to synths that cost a lot more tells me it must be pretty good value, even if it doesn't necessarily measure up to those synths.I can't imagine what it may do better than Serum, Spire and Viper. i don't have a MPE controller, the MPE compatibility seems to be the main selling point of this synth.
MPE doesn't work in my host, either, so it makes no difference to me. I have Equator and, to a much lesser extent, MicroMonsta to use with my Roli but I still need other synths to play all the backing tracks.Tj Shredder wrote: ↑Thu Nov 22, 2018 1:43 pmBut be ware that MPE doesn‘t work and the company doesn‘t care at all...
