Yea Wags don't bother. With all the synths we own this one is not likely to bring anything new or better or even be a weekend's worth of fun.

Shame as I bought their Ascension synth in a similar no-brainer deal and it's been fun. I also own InstaChord so I'm a fan of WA Productions it's just they slept walked or phoned this one in.......

If you want a cheap synth buy Synthmaster one it's almost on sale and it can be easily replace 90% of other synths

Guys gotta be mindful of the audience too. W.A. Production is mainly EDM oriented who make their money selling tutorials and sample subscription that comes with a plugin every month so they had to start filling they're catalog out with more basic type of plugins that are serviceable.
They will probably update this with a resizeable GUI tho.

Developers need to be mindful of the audience. You drop a synth now that would be common sounding fifteen years ago you're going to get some push back.

If this is an example of what their subscribers get with the "1 Plugin Per Month" subscription then I feel sorry for them.

The comments here are something else. If one were to judge this release by KVRian comments alone, one would get the impression that this is the worst VSTi ever released (it's not).

Admittedly, this synth is not overly special but it's also not nearly as awful as the comments here make it out to be. It has an attractive GUI (albeit a little on the little side; resize would be wise) that invites me to tweak it. The gimmicky color-changing GUI is fun and attention-grabbing for the first few minutes, but it desperately needs the option to turn it off. Someone's above mention of seizures is apt.

There are some decent patches included, though they aren't my taste overall. However, I'm fully aware that they aren't aimed at me and my genre tastes. And there's the rub: this synth isn't for all the grumpy old coots on this website. Could it be more obvious? Come on... I always expect some irritable remarks from people here, it's KVR after all, but the incessant bashing of this product would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad.

This is a (currently) $13 plugin that isn't aimed at 90% of us here, so just wince and move along.

I want to add that W.A. as a super friendly and dedicated customer support.

No way! Then they can go and buy this synth instead of me

To each his own. It's capable of making some nifty lo-fi noise and I really dig that type of sound. If one doesn't like lo-fi noise, then, nope, he/she isn't gonna like this synth.
