After testing out Phonec3, I'm going to give my honest opinion here - I am very disappointed. This feels like a beta at best, it seems like this was rushed out and it really feels like an unfinished product. Functionality is missing, bugs are numerous, and it sounds like a completely different instrument than Phonec2 (honestly even from the initial presets on v2 vs v3, the new version sounds completely cold and lifeless). I am going to be honest, if I had paid 96 euros for this I would be very upset.
And please, please for the love of god improve the way presets are accessed or at least add the ability to add banks like in v2. I'm not saying this because I think it's a bad product and I'm trying to criticize this. I'm saying this because it needs more work and it's not quite ready for a release yet. I love Phonec and we all know it's a great product, but please spend more time on this and make it better because as of right now this does not in any way feel like an improvement from Phonec2.
Please, please focus on fixing and improving Phonec3. It's not ready for release.

I believe you'll get a better chance to be heard if you post this on his Facebook.

I agree with the above poster. Phonec 3 doesn't even work on my PC. And with all that was taken out of version 2, I am very disappointed. I should have just gotten version 2.

For what it's worth, I was able to contact support and get a copy of version 2 for free since I pre-ordered version 3. He said he's going to delay the release a bit longer as it's not ready yet.wagtunes wrote: Mon Feb 02, 2026 1:41 pm I agree with the above poster. Phonec 3 doesn't even work on my PC.
