To my ears Xils Eighty has somewhat more "oomph" or gnarliness than for example Model 77. I bought it and now enjoy playing it!

Please tell me there is a compact mode. We don't need the keyboard, air vents, or a rendering of the table it is sitting on. Also that signal flow diagram is another waste of screen real estate.

The top section also can display the effects section and arpeggiator, and the diagram on the left will show vector type of settings you can configure.

I don’t think there’s a way to hide the keyboard.

Agreed. Has more bite without being harsh. A nice combination that I don't get from other plugins.

Opposite boat but same conclusion. I own three synths from them, and only the CS-80 V from Arturia. I don't hear any groundbreaking new level of emulation here. I might demo it, but despite their synths generally sounding good I'm not a fan of their UX, they have mediocre browsers with no way besides a mouse to change patches. So it's long shot that I would buy it, but who knows? I love the Syn'X, couldn't tell you if it sounds like the Elka Synthex, but it's got a good sound.

Listened to some demos. They all sounded like they were made by a bunch of smelly hippies on drugs.

So did they pay you to make the demos?

Sounds really good Eric...Did you ever do an audio file with Softube's model 77 too?

Quick question.
The Demo ilok license has one activation.. Does the paid version also only have one or two?
thanks
