VAZ Modular

Well I really bought this in a whim as the upgrade path from Vaz2010 seemed pretty reasonable (especially as it's so long ago that I paid for Vaz2010!).

User interfaces are a personal thing and VM's is very simple, sharp and functional - which is the way I like it.

The sound from VM is simply awesome and VERY analogue.

I have Reaktor and Tassman as well and VM is by far the easiest to get into straight away...I was building + experimenting within minutes. The same cannot be said for Reaktor (much as I love it too).

I can't really comment on the new features in VM3 cause I never owned the others but, as mentioned above, it took me no time at all to start using them.

Documentation is pretty basic but covers most aspects. There is definite room for improvement here (although I think Martin has a well known aversion to writing manuals so I wouldn't hold your breath).

Presets are limited but effective - expect plenty more where they came from. It also reads Vaz+ and Vaz2010 presets.

Customer support has always been excellent with Vaz.

VFM is difficult to assess for me at this stage but it certainly isn't a ripoff.

Stability so far is rock.Read Review
