It says free in the title for a synth that actually costs over 200,00.
Trial or not, that's not honest towards the customers.

Seems neat. Also expensive and Mac only so even if I wanted to have a go I wouldn't be buying a Mac over it. I like that someone is doing something creative with convolution filtering. Probably would be better to have it hosted as a plug-in in this day and age.

The sound is interesting/intriguing enough but 279 for a standalone App?
What?
I'm a fan of off the beaten track style synths. I have and like the Dawesome stuff, Madrona Labs synths, Newfangled's Generate, Loom 2 and a whole host of other oddities but I have never paid over 100 for any of them.
This synth, while interesting, is awkwardly standalone which really impacts its practicality.
This puts it in the same bracket as one of Giorgio Sancristoforo's weird and wonderful standalone devices but the most you'll pay for a Giorgio Sancristoforo device is twenty Euro and Girogio at least makes it easy to integrate his synths into Daws via internal API routing options.
Very odd business model.
