I wasn't paying attention when this launched... after all, I have too many synths and it probably makes sense to avoid temptation. Today, however, I tried the demo and my brain told me I wanted it... even though I only tested it with a pwm bass... but the same thing happened to me with the Minibrute, and, er, I forgot I owned it after a week. I wonder what the BF discount will likely be?

GForce keeps their discounting fairly consistent. Lately they've had a habit of giving away the low priced ones for free but I don't think that's happened with any of the bigger ones yet.

Pretty reasonable prices as well imo, in the last yr or two, I went from having one old synth of theirs that I got for free I think, to having most of their stuff...

Same here.
It was a while ago, they had a Minimonsta freebie.
I took advantage of that and was hooked from the start.
Now I have most of their stuff, and they're some of my favorites..

Not so much now it's no longer on sale.

Yeah I got the whole stck and they are my absolute fav these days

Mtron Pro IV
VSM4
impOSCAR3 (such a great unit)
Minimonsta2
The whole ARP (axxes and oddity3 are really good) and OB line they do

Top notch stuff....

I like this a lot. I don't know what emulated circuit bits and pieces give it the character it has, but there's a nice combination of aggressiveness and roundness.
It would be good to be able to dial in some extra hardness/bite with filter modulation from the oscillators.

Yeah, I'm waiting for Black Friday.

On sale now on PB if anyone wants to pick it up.

I decided I am probably fine for VA for now between RePro, Diva, and MiniBrute V.

Demoing this at the moment. How do you get the glide in the sequencer to work? Or does it not work? I'm using windows 10 if it matters.

Windows 10 does not glide.

Oh no I missed that one :x
I have the new Bass Station, Axxess and ImpOscar 2 which I got last year from Beat magazine I think it was, they have become 3 of my favs, until end of May I can upgrade to v3 for around €40, will try to jump on that one.

They ever update the UI so it wasn't annoying to look at? My eyes didn't like it - I know there were a few others that also had the same issue

(this is the only plugin I've ever had issues with looking at before, or since)

OB-1 looks fine to me. The one that's a bit blurry for me is OB-E.

Using the demo of TVS-Pro, the red destinations listed in the small boxes are pretty unreadable.
