Sonik Synth

Reviewed By Raven [all]
March 31st, 2002
Version reviewed: 1.1 on Windows

My reason for owning Sonic Synth is that it gives me access to affordable high quality acoustic instruments,
and in this respect it fills a big gap in my VST setup.

There is also a nice selection of electric instruments
e.g guitars, bass guitars, organs as well as an abundance of synth sounds , with a big fat folder full
of rich atmospheric pads.

On top of the large library of sounds that comes with
Sonic Synth there is the option of toping it up and
tailoring it to your own needs from the growing range
of affordable expansion ROM's.

The Sampletank engine that comes with Sonic Synth is very easy to use and does not really need any documentation as it is so intuative, but there is
an informative PDF included.

Onboard the Sampletank engine is its own rack of 27
effects ranging from reverb to slicer BPM and even
Lo-Fi and a Phonograph effect that gives the effect
of old worn vinal.
Each sound can have up to 4 effects applied but bear
in mind that effects will increase the CPU load
although Sonic Synth running free from effects is supprisingly light on CPU.
A lot of sounds in Sonic Synth have reverb applied to
them which can eat up CPU a fair bit if you are using a number of sounds but it is easy to just switch the reverb
off and add it later or export the track to audio, so this is no problem.

Customer support from Sonic Reality is first class
and they care passionatly about the sevice they provide
and are always swift to respond, they also have their
own popular forum here at KvR.

CONCLUSION
-----------
Great sounds
Excellent quality
Excellent value for money
Excellent service

Go for it you will not be dissapointed ;-)
