I shall apologize to you for my yesterday's long rants, it was my buddy's birthday and I fell in love with his alcohol bar.

I think there is still some echoing of that in my head today, which rather hurts like a B, but hey... if there is a snowflake here who never got drunk and laid in his life, boy please, go get a life.

Urs, my point was you don't need to lick Repro-5 clean until it's 1000% perfect. I know you may be that sort of perfectionist, and I respect that, but tell me, was the original Prophet-5 really perfect in any of its revisions? Version 2 chips were acting retarded sometimes, but people loved the sound of it! This made the version 2 sound more thick, you know, like ghettosynth's sister, and there's people who still prefer V2 to more polished V3 because of that.

But was a slightly retarded Prophet-5 V2 absolutely a legend of a synth? It was. And people played it and they loved it and they made legendary records with it. FACT.

So don't be afraid if Repro-5 will not be a 1000% polished synth at first, jerked off and faggoted to the point of nausea. If it's playable and it rocks da house so damn hard the hot chicks in the front row will be turning their eyes to the keybord player when he starts playing, that is the TARGET, you see? that is the big momma. That is why all you developers and manufacturers been helping us musicians out with all the badass hardware and software you been putting out since the day one, so the musicians could rock the boat and look cool while we're at it.

now I know this is not your standard approach to things and you may seem to think I'm talking rubbish, but if you really think of it and see it as a big picture, it makes sense.

*sigh*

Please just ignore. And please don't file further post reports - I had like a lot already. Each one costs me some time to close, and I have no banning power. I can hand it over to the super mods, but even that sounds like a waste of my time.

Does the fact that there are no sound demos mean that the sound side of the plugin is not yet 100% complete and that it may possibly change based on feedback from beta testers ?
I was under the impression that all that was left to do was the preset browser and fixing some bugs.

Ay caramba !

Sound side is pretty much complete. :) We just didn't get an official word on whether we can post audio snippets or not.

Just spoke to Adam Borseti and he wasn't aware of this thread.

Adam: "I appreciate his.... enthusiasm.... Still, if they're not hiring, then they aren't hiring.
So, if you happen to post there, let them know that I can take "no" for an answer."

BTW, being a RePro-1 bonafide owner myself, I'm really looking forward to an early Christmas this year :-)

I have been on the fence with Repro 1 and Diva for a while but when i heard i would get the Repro 5 for free i ended up buying Repro 1.

The sound was awesome and much better sounding than the Monologue and Minilogue so now i am looking forward to no.5 :)

While waiting i was thinking hard about getting Diva for some Poly and i am happy that i went for it.

Wonder why i didn't get Diva until now since it is great.

The quality of Repro 1 made me buy Diva too.
I also feel that the Repro 1 + 5 is a much better combo compared to Minilogue/Monologue.

Right before i bought the Repro 1 i was thinking of getting a OB6 or Prophet 6 but decided to go for the itb solution this time :party:

Looking forward to when No.5 is ready and until then i have 2.new excellent synths to play with :tu:

Still on my wish list, but currently too immersed in Eurocrack. That stuff is dangerous.

I have the Prophet 6, it's an amazing synth.
As I already said, I can't wait to try the Repro 5 ! :love:

There is a good possibility that Repro-5 will sound better than Prophet 6 (if it will nail the Prophet 5 sound).
At least for the set of sounds that doesn't use audio rate modulation.

I'm not sure if they're comparable, quite a few design decisions where Dave changed his mind over the years. That won't stop people from making comparison videos...

(and people will of course conveniently omit the HQ mode or use any of the Repro-1 "chip sets". And of course, they'll switch the effects off and it'll be one of the patches where effects boost level, and when the level goes down they'll describe it as "the synth falls apart once you switch its effects off").

My God, you mean they're gonna "swift boat" the Repro-5? Bastards! Have they no decency?
