now that's some unfortunate timing, bro.

big fan of the 1.0.1 update, GUI looks great at 1080p now.

This synth is really versatile, takes time to find all the details out of it. E.g. the Noise with different modes when useing Filter2 connected to lo-fi and distortion effects gives really new kind of sound dimensions, especially with arp basses.
One suggestion to the developer to think about for the future developement: some synths (and effects) include option to keep all the parameters untouched when you change the new presets, in this way you can tweak all the settings in one sounds and then test the other sounds with the same settings.

You can do that with Thorn. Just right-click on a control, select 'Lock'.

Hah, guess what i did two days ago.

Had some video codec related trouble, because a program installed its codecs, for some video capturing software which came bundled with it, which wrecked my video editor, because it couldn't play back H264 videos anymore... nothing helped, even uninstalling the software which was responsible, so i decided to re-install Windows... which is the second time in a month now that i re-installed it. Anyway, after hours of re-installing my software, i'm all set again now, fortunately.

I posted my Thorn track last night and already today have over 180 listens and picked up 4 new followers! This is more than any other "demo" for a plugins I've posted in the past - testiment to the popularity of Thorn!

Hard drive completely failed out of nowhere. It was a new computer, just over a year. I replaced it with a new one. I'm through with dell.

My main concern is the data, which wasn't backed up. Might cost 2k to get it back. I have to research data retrieval companies, after seeing if I can't do it myself.

For Christmas, I'm getting a back up and sync subscription from Google

All new data is backed up constantly in the background with 1TB limit. Sounds good to me. Won't have to worry about loosing any future work, in Thorn

This. Strangely, the sustain pedal is generally working, it just doesn´t hold arpeggios.

Other than that, I haven´t found any issues that would prevent me from buying this... so off I go to haggle with Lady Epiphaneia ("no food again, this week? oh, it´s for a good purpose, my honey needs new toys!")

This really is a wonderful spectral/additive tool so far. Didn't listen to the demos before hand so I kind of expected to hear something similar to Loom. Nothing close. Thorn has some pretty interesting features too like the Harmonic Filter and the Glitch Sequencer. Went in it trying to create soundscapes but found myself making alien-like percussive sequences instead. Very inspiring.

For some reason, the lfo are always retriggering. In all modes. Unless the notes are overlapping eachother..bug??

Shoot... that's my nightmare imagination since years. I do a backup every one or two months now though, on an external 2 TB hard drive, and i also have another external hard drive, as a backup of the backup. Of course, a cloud backup will do too. Maybe even more secure. Imagine you have both external hard drives connected to the computer, you're copying files, and the lights go out... will most likely corrupt both hard drives.

Which is why I not only have a UPS connected to the computers but also a generator outside the house in case of a real disaster.

Thorn: Dmitry Sches' new synth!
