It is really good. It's a shame that there seems to be some people who demand the synth be something it isn't, which I think is missing the point. It does what it does really well and is a lot of fun! Not $200 fun, but when on discount, why the hell not?

Ahh..but that's the point...it IS a 200 dollar synth. Expected a tad extra for that kind of money. @99 it is more than fine

It is the first time in ages I've spent multiple hours just creating patches, both from scratch and by tweaking some of the factory patches. I think it helps that there's a standalone version because I can just fire it up when I've got a spare 10 minutes and see what I can get out of it. Standalone softsynths are highly under-rated, I reckon. But yeah, it was never a $200 VSTi, that price is just taking the piss.

That's really good to hear, thank you.

I love getting into that deeply focused flow, to the exclusion of all else... been 'ages' for me to (re: w/soft-synths) and precisely why I prefer 'standalone' synths as well. I definitely agree they are underrated.

I've used this to facilitate that, since forever:

That's looking at it arse-backwards. It is what it is, what you should be complaining about is the price, not the product. i.e. It's a fantastic product, the problem is that it is too expensive.

Do UVI do sales very often? I've not paid them any attention over the years.

Falcon seems to be on sale very regularly, at half price, so it's probably fair to assume that $99 will be the 'real' price of Rumble.
