polyIblit

This is my first review but what better synth is there to do one on that this great polyphonic synth! The fact that it's free is criminal considering some of the wicked sounds you can get out of it. Not that i'm complaining though...I've been using this synth for a while now and i'm glad to see it has been updated and that Andreas Ersson is keeping up the good work. Here are some of the features I like best about it:

a) Wide range of sounds, from deep basses to light string like sounds...

b) Lot's of control (3 Oscillators, pwm, two mixers etc etc) so you can tweak it to the max.

c) A distinctive character. I find it has a distinct feel whereas many synths that get released do not, and I feel that they should.

d) Lots of presets (It has a lot more than Iblit) that are a good starting point.

e) It hasn't crashed me yet (touch wood) so it's solid as a rock (but thats using Orion so I don't know about Cubase/Sonic users etc).

That's the main things and I have few qualms about it other than that I find the skin a bit uninspiring and it's not that well documented as far as I can see ...Also I don't like the direction you move the mouse to change the values (I prefer up/down not side to side). Apart from that It does the biz...spot on from Ers.
