For what this thing does, it is really outstanding. I've been compelled to track down all the free packs for it because they're just fun to play around with.

It's exactly what you would imagine a cross between ReFx Nexus and Dune2 would be if it were stripped down to freeware. The presets sound really good. Surprisingly, it's got 3 LFO's, a mod matrix with 31 destiations, an arpeggiator, and a great sounding filter. Runs stable, coded by Synapse who are probably in the top 5 developers in the business, in my opinion.

I would urge anybody on a budget to get it, or anybody who admires great software to simply marvel at how slick this instrument is.

one or two of the banks i found had issues loading due to an error in the fxb, but it was easy enough to remake and save the .fxb right from the interface.
