I bought this without thinking twice, I totally regret it now. The UI and workflow is terrible!
Really disappointed ☹️

The formant FX looks good. I think it's fairly unique.

Yeah, it's a bit confusing. Cancel will actually save a copy of the preset and add "copy" at the end of the preset name. It doesn't cancel the saving process, just the overwriting of the existing preset with the same name.

It would be better to replace the word "cancel" with "save a copy" or something
Yeah that's it. The whole thing needs developing but I think it will be a good synth in the future. :tu:

Haven't yest demoed it but seems a cool little synth with a nice character, going by the audio clips. Everything with a vowel filter gets me immediately interested.

Does it have an FM bewteen the oscillators, or any other form of osc interaction (sync, PM etc) ?
You may think you can fly ... but you better not try

Oscillators can modulate each other and even themselves, no sync though

For me i still miss snappier envelopes and attacky sounds, but i like to play around with it. maybe i´ll get to the train.

There are trains that are arriving at the station and trains that are leaving...

That's the way of the world :wink:
No auto tune...

Thanks, cool!

Sounds very good. Is there a way to initialize a patch (set all parameters to default)?

There is a default patch in the template category, but I find it faster to just open the randomizer and click the reset button. You can even select exactly what you want to reset with the check boxes above the reset button

Thanks! Another 'issue' I have: even when I don't use the panning parameter the oscillators sounds tilts towards one side of the stereo field (so signal is not mono). Do you have an idea why this happens? I'm using the demo version, but I don't think it's a deliberate demo restriction? I made a bass patch that is supposed to be mono, but isn't.

Is there anything that is modulating the panning (is the dot next to the panning knob lit?).
Is that issue present in the default patch too?

No, default patch appears to behave as expected. Oh yes, indeed the dot next to one of the pan parameters seems lit. I cannot find the modulation source. I deactivated all LFOs, but the stereo imbalance is still there. Unfortunately, due to demo restrictions, I cannot share the patch.

right-click the pan knob with a lit dot to see the modulation sources and reset any that is modulating pan

Thanks all - a significant update will be released soon with additional vintage VCO synthesis algorithms, easier import/export and categorization of patch libraries, ASIO support on Windows, more presets, new polyphony modes, new modulation options, faster and snappier envelopes, a dedicated UI design for large screen workflows, and several additional improvements!
