I assume that beta .9b is the current one. No biggie. I said from the beginning that this was worth the price of admission for the entertainment value. I still feel that way.

No, the current version is 1.0. This is from the email of Jun 12, 2015:

Ah yes. Thank you for that memory jog. I scrolled back and found that email. No question that I did the update.

Yes, the current version is 1.0, however, for some reason it shows 0.9b to the right side of the logo... Do you guys have the same... "issue"?

EDIT: disregard. There was a conflict with previous version in my Live. Deleted the 0.9b and now 1.0 loads without a hitch.

Hi,

I have made a PDF format of the user manual (with some more formatting than the previous one posted), maybe it can be useful ?
get it here : https://app.box.com/s/2uay77uiejxrx02b1trfvli2zqij5y8a
I think this manual is very well made.

By the way, did anyone heard from Tom lately ? Since v1 is officially out, he never replied to my e-mails and i can't get the new download link

Nope. I think Tom is MIA. Shame. This is such a great synth.

Argh, too bad. I hope he will give some signs of life again soon. Let's wait, hope, and see...

Guys, we're adding granular synthesis to Synthmaster in v3.0. and we have a huge sample content with a lot of acoustic instruments/drums/vocals. A little more patience

Along with the new filters ? Interesting

Any more hint/teaser or ETA ?
I love the Mangle, but can we have enough granular synths ?

It is a shame Tom's MIA.. am I wrong for thinking it's not particularly classy to use The Mangle thread to promote something else?

No, not along with the new filters. Filters will be released in v2.8

v3.0 will be a paid upgrade: the price will rise to $129 and upgrade will be $29 for existing users (for everything bundle users the upgrade will be free)

Know what? I don't have a problem with it. Tom and I had an agreement in which I fulfilled my end of the agreement and then he just up and disappears. He's forfeited any right to class as far as I'm concerned.

Ah, yes- I'd forgotten about that; no, I don't suppose I could blame you for feeling that way, I'd more than likely still be sore about having wasted my time and energy.

I realize that with warez everywhere and a not-so-vast market to begin with, developers have to work hard to put bread on the table and that includes keeping your name and product visible, but I'm still not a fan of spam-scented posts in general.

+1. Not. Particularly. Classy.

Less classy than selling a product and then disappearing?

I think when the conversation has been centring around the fact that the dev has disappeared and someone else is offering an alternative, I don't think it's too bad.
