I won this VSTi from one of KvR's monthly competitions - and so first of VFM was excellent! :)

I'm a bit of a synthesis dunce, and impatient too, so I was plesantly surprised how easy this was to figure out how to use, and how to modulate for some pretty crazy sounds.
So hence the 9/10 for GUI.

Sound - i found that this synth doesnt do everything. I'm sure it was not the intention either, but for pads, weird FX, ambient tweaks and lots of lovely staccato/pizzicato/clav type sounds - this has it all.
Its now permanently residing in my audiological arsenal.

Features - some excellent and innovative features. The Pitch/Filter/Envelope editor is clear, easy and impressively versatile to use. Also the LFO sliders was a good touch.
The soundbanks random name giver also was a nice touch - showing that this VST has really been given some thought.

Documentation - I didnt use any, so I'm saying 7, as I know its there. Just shows you how easy to use it is!

Presets - there are no built in preset banks but Liqih does provide two and there are now more user presets for d/l. However, the randomiser is a good tool.

Customer Support - Liqih is one click away!

Stability - rock solid and super low CPU.
