The Legend vs repro-1

Sorry mate, your're writing personal insults there. You're off limits. [edit: <- I think what I meant to say was "out of line"]

Sorry mate, I'm not. All I'm saying is that Repro-1 was designed by Dave Smith, not you or anyone else at U-he.

Yeah you can say that way like "uh U-He just copied Pro-One". Pro-One was by Dave Smith. RePro-1 was by U-he no matter what. But if going like that...well majority of synths were designed by Bob Moog.

Yeah, whatever. I found the circuit diagrams on the net, pressed a button and out came a VST.

You're actually implying that you designed the synthesizer circuit which you copied, "with all the quirks of the original" using component level modelling. Whatever, yeah.

I guess some people really do think it works like that these days

I knew it all along. No human being can do that in software anyways.

On the topic, don't care for that much for what The Legend emulates and Diva gives me more than enough moog.
On the other topic, i didn't think i was interested in Pro-1 either, but a few of the demos made me look (or listen).
I like its character and quality a lot and am not bothered by it being monophonic.
But overall i feel it wouldn't add enough to my setup too justify adding another whole synth.
Adding modules to the synths i already have is much more attractive to me and more likely that i spend money on that.
Then again, there are 2-3 synths i would buy as software standalones and i am still not 100% sure about not having RePro-1.

I guess its just that good even though most of its quality is probably wasted on my ears.

If you think there was no creativity involved, then think again. I think there was more creativity and out-of-the-box thinking required to build Repro-1 than on any of those posh modern synthesizers with all their off-the-shelf stock DSP modules. Gosh, there are companies now who employ Ph.D people to do their DSP and they don't get anywhere near what we did.

No offense Urs, but, maybe you should concentrate on your own products, instead of shelving your own work over others constantly (or, like, even suggesting specific companies with your remarks, like you just did). That is most likely also the reason why there is a discussion here now in the first place.

Yes, you are.

Hey .jon!
Urs is not responsible that you obviously suffer a northern hemisphere darkness depression. He's just doing his business, is (compared with other developers) highly responsive with us users and has success in building interesting fx and synths which many people think are worth their money. Your nittykritty behaviour feels cheap...

Sorry, but this is what the guy did. He said others were designing things while I wasn't. I can't counter the argument without any reference. Let me know if you have a better wording.

[Urs]

Maybe... "while I have not designed the hardware we emulated I have designed the solution to do so - which by Dave Smiths own opinion is probably a more difficult task."

ah shame that there wount be many people on board with that

Ok, i must say i haven't really followed the discussion up to now very thoroughly anyway, it just appeared to me that you make a bit of snippy side blow on some other devs every once in a while. Nevermind, don't know why i tried to get involved anyway, as i don't have no horse in this race at all.
