Make sure you buy the bundle version. Same price as the synth alone!
BTW, VST3 only...

I just bought it.
First impressions:
1. It reminds me a lot of my old Yamaha 4 op synths: DX21, DX100, FB01, TX81Z. I really liked those synths.
2. Factory sounds and the bonus packs have plenty of useful sounds.
3. The random patch feature is a lot of fun and can produce some happy accidents.
4. It is easy to get around on and very quick for editing sounds.
5. The filter, wave shaper, and motion sequencer, and filter provide a lot of sound design possibilities not usually found on FM synths.
6. The effects are really nice and I like having the tremolo in addition to chorus, delay and reverb.
7. Well worth the price IMHO. I also bought Alpha at the intro price when it came out.

Its £8.99 for my Iphone I cant see a compelling reason why its $85 for the VST3 version without the presets stripped off, particularly when you look at the quality of other synths that you can get in this price range. Presumably they are adopting Plugin Alliance sales tactics and will be offering this at massive discounts in the near future?tony10000 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 10:37 am And it is out.

The intro price is $59 for the bundle including extra presets. I think that is a fair price.tactile_coast wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 11:23 amIts £8.99 for my Iphone I cant see a compelling reason why its $85 for the VST3 version without the presets stripped off, particularly when you look at the quality of other synths that you can get in this price range.

I don't agree that so many presets are that bad in F'em. I just went through this morning and favorited a bunch of them as I hadn't done that yet.briefcasemanx wrote: ↑Thu Jan 20, 2022 11:41 pm Just the few sounds in the teaser video are all better than 999 out of the 1000 presets in F'em, which sounds so bad and cheap (except for exactly 1 kinda good preset). Im somewhat interested.
Yes, some aren't too great and I would never use them, but that's how it is with many synths. Some presets used too much feedback (IMO) but when I turned that down a bit (or just switched it off) they were more suited to my own tastes. Also if you don't like many presets you could make your own.

Not sure as I was online when I entered the serial. You can reach out to BLEASS and see.

Online serial numbers are a kind of soft C/R, I will probably demo this anyway though. I'm intrigued, I like 4-op FM.
What did you have to enter in order to activate the synth? If it was only about serial and maybe email number, then it's probably offline serial. I'll ask the dev and report back.

If I like 1 out of 1000 presets and I think the overall sound character of every preset is "cheap" sounding ( but not in a good way), I'm not going to spend time making my own I'm going to look at a different synth.Examigan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 21, 2022 1:23 pmI don't agree that so many presets are that bad in F'em.
