Revitar 2
Reviewed By GaggingMaggot [all]
March 1st, 2005
Version reviewed: 2 on Windows
Revitar 1 was my first commercial vst purchase. I was looking for a quality plucked string emulation. I was not disappointed. Having demoed everything in this area I found nothing that compared to the sound. Until....
Version 2, picks up where 1 left off, offering new flexibility in tone, and there by some great new presets.
All while retaining some core features and playability,
found in the original.
The chord feature is my favorite aspect of the plug. It offers a very convincing sound that one can easily build riffs with. At first I was left wanting a host tempo sync, option to dictate the chords speed, but I now think part of the features charm would be lost if were.
The interface- clean and explainitory.
The sound- Very high quality
The features- For a synth aimed at one goal, it is very flexible.
The documentation- Well, I just checked, while writing this, and it doese exist. (testimony to the ease of use)
The presets- Showcase the plugs features nicely and offer a nice starting point for creating your own noises.
The support- While I've had no technical issues with version 1 or 2, questions about beta testing and upgrades
were asked, and answered via e mail by Larry, the developer, who proved to b eone of the coolest people I've dealt with since becoming consumed by the world of musical software.
The value- the asking price is very fair for the quality of sound you get.
The stabilty- I have yet to see a problem.
all in all, I'd say Revitar 2 is a great purchase.Read Review
