Slayer

HI

I think it would be fair to say that Slayer has a definate target audience and in that respect it meets some of my needs; but not all.

I am going to keep this short as the previous reviews have touched on much of what Slayer has to offer.

Generally I find ReFx products to be quite polished and Slayer is graphically slick, it has a responsive interface and is stable in a variety of hosts.

Where it comes up short for me is when you want a clean electric guitar sound, in particular for chord work - I find for Reggae rythem work Slayer is way off target and equally if you want a clean 'studio' guitar sound for slow lead work or similar you are unlikely to be pleased with the sound, which to my ears lacks dynamics, sustain and harmonics.

If you want a more up-front effected, driven and distorted sound then you will more than likely be happy as a sand boy, in this respect I am happy to have and use Slayer, the only alternative is an (Expensive) mult-sampled library - I prefer both options.

I would love to see Slayer develop a better 'studio' electric guitar sound but otherwise it is still fun to use.Read Review
