There you go.
Another sale lost.

Keep up the good work

I’ve got plenty of plugins from small operations, but every single one of them had a demo for me to check out, and supplied a working serial number in under 24 hours. I’ve already got two very good OB-Xa emulations and two good SEM emulations (and one mediocre one). I bet this is true for a lot of people, so with that in mind, you have to at least as much as your competitors. You don’t show up late for a dinner party, show up empty handed and wonder why there’s not a plate of food ready for you.
Its one guy.....he isnt asking for money, he is selling a product.....wtf does a plate of food have to do with anything?
I think what he's saying is that when there are already several good Oberheim emulations out (albeit not all the specific model this is emulating) from companies that provide demos and better purchasing experiences then perhaps he shouldn't be surprised if potential customers are reluctant to part with their money.

I agree completely, however, its the way you present your statement. You are being clear, and its easy to understand your intention for explaining the obvious. Others choose to take the road of "everyone owes me something"

Precisely.

Couple questions. What screen resolution are you viewing it on? How would you compare the CPU use to something like Diva or Pigments etc?

Beyond that I think some responses are just weird? The filter sounds huge in the demos, the whole thing sounds huge. You can maybe if you stretched logic chalk it up to just distortion algorithms etc. but it's (without playing it) a lot bigger sounding than the OBX from Arturia etc. No weird artifacts on the high end, at least in the demos it's clean.

It's one guy, the inconsistencies you get with that are IMO still better than the ones you get with IK, NI, iZotope etc. etc. etc. I will probably buy it before it's out of beta and ready for Apple Silicon, because with one guy whose trying to make a living, he probably also takes better paying contract work that isn't music related. If you want small developers to work on a product you like, you have to feed them. This isn't any mystery, the big companies constantly try to sell you upgrades and new versions of the more or less same product.

It's also weird to me how crazy brutal people are about $50 when I paid $1,400 for a Ensonique Mirage in 1986, and that was after bargaining the price down. We're at a time with unprecedented access to great sounding plug ins that do for the most part a better job than anything released back then and all we do is trash people for things like timelines. So he's going through and authorizing every purchase by hand, big f*cking deal. The same people trashing him will wait over a month for some piece of hardware that has a similar delay. I also have to acknowledge that this plug in is less than 1/2 the price of the average price for software instrument plug in, take that into account when judging etc.

doesn't sound anything like the real thing.

It's pretty obviously only using the real thing as a starting point, hence the "Xtreme" moniker.

?? did you buy it or are you going off YouTube videos??

I don't hear any aliasing to speak of on the high end, and I always listen for that with cheap plug ins.

That poster was joking and parroting common complaints.
