Toxic is a 6-operator-FM synthesizer with alias-free oscillators, warm filters and precise envelopes. All controls are interpolated, allowing you to tweak all parameters smoothly in realtime without clicks.
A powerful effects section with an Equalizer, a Distortion unit and two Chorus, Flanger and Delay units completes this generator.
The Toxic interface was very carefully designed - despite having many parameters. Toxic features a very streamlined GUI, allowing rapid access to all relevant parameters - no hidden pages or endless searching for a specific parameter. Producers who do not like to program their own sounds from scratch will be happy to see that the Toxic comes with 10 banks full of ready-to-use presets.

User Interface:
Nice, clean and professional GUI. Everything is on one page - no switching between pages, tabs etc. I like the colors too :) Overall, that's the kind of design I really like.
Documentation:
There is some documentation (chm format) which describes each Toxis module but actually I don't need it :)
Presets:
There are about 600 presets divided into 10 Sound Banks. Most presets are really good - especially i like Pad SoundBank. You'll find bass, leads, pads - it's almost everything there...
Value For Money:
Seriously, 49 $ for this monster is one of best deals ever. It's a killer synth capable of creating almost any sound - pads, leads, basses, arps. Judging by it's features, it should cost about 99 E...
Stability:
Never creashed (at least not in Ableton Live which I use)
Things I like the most:
* 6 (!!!) alias free Oscillators - each with 50 waveforms available
* FM Matrix - great for pads and "electrical" sounds
* gorgeous Sequencer with load / save sequencer patterns option (the best one i've ever seen ??)
* powerful effects section (EQ, Distortion, two Chorus, Flanger, Delay units)Read more
