Synth1

Reviewed By Kel [all]
March 5th, 2016
Version reviewed: 1.13 on Windows

This synth1 is really a gem of the gems. Given its time of development and its simplicity I always find myself coming back to it, pressing the VST button to add another instance... pure satisfaction.

Some people may think its not capable enough just because it does not have a lot of oscs. Or the capabilities seems somewhat limited. But let me tell you that under good hands, anything good should came of it.

For example, I was doing a very difficult electric bass patch and tried to make it sound realistic. After two months of tweaking I got to the point of it sounding almost as exact as a sample. The same can be said with a lot of instruments, but for complex patches you will need several instances and a lot of workarounds. But in the end, its really similar to his big brothers (sylenth et all). You can have a look at the professional level patches that some designers do and be amazed (kaiyoti, Ann, brok, etc).

For it size and its price... it is a bargain. Let synth1 help you and you will be amazed.

Btw Im still working for synth1 and doing patches for it after many years of use (from 2005). Thanks Ichiro, my respect.
