OK. There's a lot you can say about this VSTi. It does the job pretty damn well and at a price which is quite unbelievable.
If you just want a soundfont player, get bs-1, it's less cumbersome and comes significantly cheaper.
However, if you want a real sampler you're not going to beat this for the money. I've marked it to average in many areas because I believe it has the following 'bad' points:
The filters are really not very special. The interface can be annoying and hard to work with. The pattern sequencer seems like dead wood as does the synthesiser section - it would do better to be a perfect sampler rather than trying to reach beyond that. The loop/sample editor is attrocious.
However, having said all that, this really is my sampler of choice and its real edge over Halion etc. is its rapid and ongoing development.
And it sure as hell beats staring at an LED all day.Read Review
