@doctorbob, I doubled the guitar you wanted to hear more
@Silverpants, I expanded the bass range of bass and kick drum
Thanks again for your feedback! I hope you like the update. [Otherwise I will put back the previous mix].

Does your audio interface support audio loopback? If so, you can put analysers on the input FX while streaming and in record mode (you'll need to turn off parent send to avoid loud noises....)

It used to work like that - but now when I have Reaper running - other audio sources will not play. They just hang

Hmmm. ASIO or WASAPI ? If it's WASAPI, you might be running in exclusive mode?
I have a Focusrite Scarlett with ASIO drivers, and it can handle windows apps and ASIO clients at the same time

ASIO. It used to run both fine. Now it doesn't. Although if Reaper is open, but I haven't used it for a while - and I say a prayer - other apps do work. It's a bit random.

Downloaded this thing a few days ago. Definitely a quirky one to handle at first (kept fumbling between ENV's, losing sound cuz I'd click an ENV by mistake and screw it up), but sounds pretty good when I'm not fatfingering the controls!

Would like to see more standardized mono/poly/legato settings, but no biggie. Polyphony settings seem to be needed as well.

But all in all, cool synth!

Seems that interesting function is

Intelligent Frequency Suppression: automatically detects and reduces conflicting frequencies, providing instant clarity.

They require to mangle with your email though. So I subscribed to their news but no download link received yet.

Well, it loads and it works in side chain mode, quite cool to flatten the spectrum by sidechaning the same audio input.

Could it be called a spectral compressor?

Here's my submission for this round. It's just a simple track because my experience with the synth was quite frustrating and I just don't want to spend any more time with it... Thanks to these bzz words, I returned to the abandoned sketch and still finished it. Maybe sometimes it's useful to work with something that you don't really like.

I'm workin' on it! Synth metal? Likely....Brilliant? Likely not!! Been a while since I even used a synth, much less programmed one. Yowserz!

Well, it was fun while it lasted.....Reaper crashes when I try to render

You can make a live recording in Reaper, instead of having to render!?
