Tone2 will release Icarus - 3D WaveTable Synthesizer

Well, i think this pretty much sums it up:

i think demos should be online soon (turned mine in monday). worth checking them out (not just mine, of course... ). and, of course, the synth itself when it's available. always the best thing, to decide for yourself. if we believed everything we read on kvr...every plugin is equally great and awful.

Two questions if you don't mind
1. Have they fixed the Mac installer scattering stuff in the Plugins Folder
2. CPU usage ?

1. files are in the plugins folder; same as electra2. not elegant, but...who spends time in the plugins folder?
2. haven't checked yet, but did several demos with up to 9 instances of icarus, and no issues...

I didn't count them all, but it wouldn't surprise me if there's almost 1,000. And Mac's are some of the best, from what I've heard.

Thanks (blushing)

I'm listening to the Mac's teaser again, too clean sound ... Sometimes this is what is needed, sometimes you want it dirty

Again, that is not THE way Icarus sounds like, it's just the sounds I personally wanted to get out of it - you can get from slightly dusty to very dirty sounds out of it, if you want

i'm in there all the time. Many of us on mac who create custom plugin sets are. That's the only thing about Tone2 I still find irritating I will admit.

i think we've been thru this before. it's a folder. you put stuff in a folder. you don't live in the folder, you store stuff in it. maybe u visit it regularly. that's cool too. but it's no big deal, and shouldn't impede your workflow (am assuming you do your music in an actual app)...

to be honest, i find it somewhat annoying that a lot of developers put presets etc in the Documents folder. but i live with it, because...it's just a folder...

I find it great if stuff is installed in the plugin folder. Or let's rather say in ONE folder, vs. having it all spread out over the harddisk, and having the .dll in the plugin folder, other stuff in the programs folder, other stuff in the Documents folder, and some stuff in the Start menu folder and whereever... or do i get this wrong?

im looking forward to see and hear if it really surpasses serum.

and lol for calculating soundprices.... how pathetic. this cannot be argued by the price. i had bought packs with higher prices which have very awesome presets and cheap ones which where awesome too. But mostly the cheap ones have less great presets.
i dunno your presets wagtunes but if you wanna get respectful buyers you should rethink your argumentations.... let alone buyers decide.
