Gforce MAP first impression : so so

[Boudin]

I tried MAP and I'm not impressed with this plugin.
There is an annoying audio glitche at the beginning of the sound, and if I delay the envelope sound attack, the sound is less punchy, obviously. I can't find a way to get a pure sine wave and reproduce the famous wood piano DX7 preset, overused in house music. The sound is noisy and seems not to use a pure sine wave, this annoying add extra harmonics in the hi end spectrum.

What is your first impression ?

You probably should have searched the forum for the main thread for GForce MAP and posted there instead.

indeed, I posted there a comment last week and I can't find it ! anyway, it seems other people opinion is that it is just another average synth.

Maybe. But I'm enjoying it all the same. It's actually at the top of my GAS list at the moment. I'm just wondering what will land on the real Black Friday that may be to good to miss. Property Taxes are really punching my budget.

I will rather wait, and buy it secondhand for 30 bucks : )

I think Map is deliberately wonky sounding.

That's what I like about it.

I suppose I then can make a crappy plugin and say, it's OK guy, it only deliberately sounds different. I even thought to put an annoying audio click at the beginning of the audio sound to make it more different !

Wonky like BabyAudio Tekno? Clicks, pops and etc. Then I pass.

I'm not getting any clicks.

But in terms of the waveshapes they are deliberately designed to sound imperfect.

Not getting any clicks on that either. Or at least no unintentional ones.

Perhaps you like Halogen FM, no?

No click, pops and etc. over here. Wonky as in weird and unpredictable, yet still with the excellent GForce sound quality and presets we've come to expect.

For my purpose (ambient, glitchy stuff), this synth is really enjoyable for me this far.

downloaded the demo. The GUI has too small fonts. This GUI is a mess. shame....

Does it have any UI scaling options?

I hate plugins that do not have UI scaling.
