Hybrid 3 - the best Synth;o) (perhaps Hybrid 4?)

[h66]

This synth needs to be pushed. Perhaps to get to Hybrid 4 by reworking, which is then not so "fipselig".
I'm not a Youtuber or a sound designer, but maybe others would like to contribute too. Through videos or presets that show the great sound possibilities of this synth, which also does not consume any CPU!

I would not bet at all about Hybrid 4... AiR is a zombie company IMO nowadays, just trying to squeeze money from all people that don't know it yet...

This may be. Common in the IT industry: bought from ..., integrated into ... (ProTools, inMusic Brands). The idea is that the product is too old for the "group" and (innovatively/creatively) initiates a revision. Or better, the developers develop it themselves or switch to another company (music tribe or imageline )

I don’t get this. If you like Hybrid 3 why would you need a version 4? If its good now its good in a few years.
Loom 2 is one of the best synths out there because its different - and you get it for close to nothing. How can you get fooled by Loom 2? Or who is the fool?

Basically yes, but if you could exploit today's possibilities, some features would be flow-enhancing:
Preset browser, preset preview function, ADSR/envelope windows are "unusual", GUI size, no window change for the mod envelope, etc.

I like Hybrid 3. It's actually one of my favorites soundwise. My only requests would be 1. Increase the GUI size. 2. Make the dual arpeggiators better, that is, it's step sequencer function is awkward, and 3. Fix adjusting the notes in the sequencer. It's a pain in the tookus because it's awkward and time consuming.

This thread was started before HYPE came out which is obviously meant as a replacement for Hybrid 3 much like TUBESYNTH is a replacement for Vacuum Pro.

So another downgrade then?

Hype looks like "shape & sort it", how is cpu?

I really love the sounds of both Hybrid 3 and Loom 2. I bought the bundle cheaply and have never regretted it. I don’t have much time to spend digging into making my own sounds and the number of presets included is better than average in my opinion. I would be stoked if there was a decent drumnbass expansion for these, but I still use them regularly for their interesting pad/soundscapes.

Can anyone find the PORTAMENTO control on this synth so I can turn it off? TIA

You probably already found out how to do this a long time ago, but I’ll answer anyway, in case it comes in handy.
Portamento is adjusted in the COMMON tab, where you will find the PORTA MODE parameter.

No idea, I'll buy it when it drops to two dollars.

I have Hybrid 3 but I don’t see what you see in it. It’s just an average synth imo. Like their Riser plugin, that’s one I think should be expanded on, quite a cool idea.
