Purchased and loving it

I'm also a big fan of your Oberheim bank for Diva.

My favorite thing about this collection is that, unlike nearly ALL other Repro libraries I have / have heard, you didn't go overboard on effects. You used them, yes, but mostly in subtle ways. The core sound of these patches is Classic Analog Synth, with a focus on capturing the character and tone of such. Amen! I can't tell you what a relief this is after so many banks that just drench the sound in reverb, chorus/delay, distortion, to a point where it might as well by any synth out there, rather than the Prophet 5 (emulation) specifically. So, great job! Keep up the awesome work.

From what I hear in the video-demo this seems like a great set of vintage sounds

Thanks mholloway!

Yes the effects in Uhe synths are pretty good, and enhance the sound if used subtly, but if you get carried away then it ends up not sounding so authentic IMO...glad to hear you think I'm getting the balance about right

thanks mate. Yup what better way to show off a classic emulation than a fat set of classic sounds
