Cherry Audio Releases Elka-X Synthesizer

[Plugintester]

I did not expect that this plugin would make me create some presets of my own, but it works fine and I like the results. Price and synth are good imo, less cpu would be nice

I ve just uploaded a video with some user presets. It's 80s and funky!

made with four instances of Cherry Audio Elka-X (and one has the comfort of the Frequency Shifter of Cherry Audio..);

Anyone know why it gets stuck on the Completing Installation part and such? I have problems with that happening. Do I install and reinstall over again??? I’m having the issue with Miniverse as well. I’m gonna uninstall and reinstall over again.

Just picked this one up. Don't care if it does or doesn't sound like Xils versions. I just think it's great that we have so many amazing synths to make music with.

Do you guys realize just how lucky we all are to live in this day and age where owning all this stuff would have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars 40 to 50 years ago? Not to mention how some of the stuff we have wasn't even in anyone's imagination back in 1977 when I got my first synth.

I feel like a kid in a candy store.

Oooh...the KVR haters, and there are many, will storm your house, drag you out to the middle of the forest, and leave you there for all eternity for your words of kindness. (Yeah, those are banned here).

Does it do a good Laser Harp?

Hello to everybody,
As an electronic & orchestral music producer I read and appreciate your contributions since several years.
I chime in late after reading your posts about the Elka-X because I am working on some demo tracks that could be interesting for those searching for some Jean-Michel Jarre like sounds and asking if CA products can achieve that.

The first one was released around my sound design work to reproduce the famous Preset 46 « Ring mod. » laser harp sound as well as I could do because the other attempts didn’t do the trick for me. The track ended up in a demo using only the Cherry Audio virtual instruments (except the drums) around the synthex emulation as a special guest.

Thanks to Robert Saint John @ CA who put the track on their website ! I named it « Laser Years Ago » in rememberance of the JMJ first giant concerts era. Hope you’ll enjoy it :

Can I make music like that after buying it?

Hello,
You can certainly do some « Jarresque music » with Cherry Audio instruments, mainly because they reproduce some of the synths Jean-Michel used himself in his albums. The track I was talking about above could show you some of the atmospheres you can achieve with CA plugins. More will be coming soon :
