Rainbow

Reviewed By ksn [all]
January 22nd, 2002
Version reviewed: 2.x on Windows

Rainbow can achieve a really wide variety of sounds, most of them you can't easily create with another single VSTI, thanks to several synthesis modes

it especially excels in making complex ambient textures, but big fat basses (Rainbow has very good sound quality for basses) and all types of analog sounds can be easily done as well.

banks and patches bundled with the synth are good examples of this, with both textures and fat analog sounds.

Rainbow is perfect if you want to make your own samples and sound original, and the standalone version is perfect for this.

it also shines when used "live" in your favorite VST host : very stable, not too CPU hungry, it provides good features for this mode too, like glide, finger-glide, mono mode, very powerful filters etc...

Big Tick is always listening to customers (for the commercial plugins as well as for the free ones), for support or for help, provides new patches regularly and constantly develops Rainbow.

Rainbow is not expensive considering its features, the high sound quality, and its overall sound capabilities.

a final word about the interface. i personnaly like it : even if it's not the most beautiful graphics you'll find, it's quite appealing though and everything is clear right in front of you, perfect to spend hours tweaking all the knobs over and over :)
