Product Reviews by KVR Members

I love FM synths, and this one is no exception. You may have a difficult time figuring it out because this synth lacks labels and the controls in the white boxes are weird to use, however once you do figure it out you are left with a fun FM synth with an equally fun looking UI.

Very fun plugin in it's current state! It is very simple and easy to use. It does only have one wavetable, and the UI isn't my absolute favorite (but far from bad), however neither of those things stopped me from enjoying this plugin. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for future updates.

This plugin is very fun to use. I am very bad at math, and because of that I feel like I am not really qualified to get the fullest potential out of it, however putting random equations into it led to some very interesting results. It is very simple otherwise, which is never a bad thing, and I very much so enjoy it here. Oh, and the interface is very well made!

Overall I love it, and if you are good at math you can take it very far.

This sampler is by far the most infuriating thing I have ever used. I really wish I liked this more then I do, and even despite the issues I have it is still the most powerful free sampler I know of.

The good part of this plugin is that it can do just about anything. It is a fully featured sampler which allows you to not only map each key to individual samples, but also map samples to different velocities, with the full version allowing you to round-robin samples. It comes with an extremely versatile set of modulation options, and is also a fully featured synthesizer, allowing you to map subtractive oscillators like samples to individual keys, as well as load full wavetables into the sampler part to do wavetable synthesis. The wavetable synthesis part surprised me, because it is only talked about in the manual, so unless you read it, you may never actually know it exists. Lastly, you can take the project files and use a program called "ConvertWithMoss" to create soundfonts, which I very much needed.

The bad part about this plugin is the UI and it's somewhat unstable nature. Despite the other reviews, the UI, while visually very nice, is one of the most difficult to understand of any plugin I have ever used. It has caused me immense levels of physical and mental suffering. I am not entirely sure why I seemed to struggle with it so much while everyone else didn't, and why I had a significantly easier time using other notoriously difficult to learn plugins like Dexed or Sytrus. The subtractive and wavetable synthesis options I mentioned took way longer to find then I would have liked, and I even had to write notes down so I don't forget where they are (which you can see below in case you have trouble finding them). This plugin is also somewhat unstable, frequently giving error messages which can optionally be logged into gigantic debug files around three hundred megabytes each. It rarely fully crashes my DAW, so I can often just close them without issue, and I will likely report these bugs in the future.

Overall, this thing is incredible functionally, but that power is wrapped in one of the most horrible interfaces I have ever had to suffer using. Despite this, I might actually still buy the full version just because it is so powerful, and with enough pain I will eventually understand how this thing works.

Here are the notes I wrote about these that I mentioned earlier, in case you want to do synthesis in this plugin:
-To add an oscillator, go to the "Regions" tab, then right-click, then select "New region." Below that, click where it says "<none>" under "Sample/Matrix" and select one of the waveforms.

-To do wavetable synthesis, simply load a wavetable into the plugin and set it's note region like any other sample. Then, in the "Sounds" tab, use the "PW" knob to cycle through the wavetable. TX16Wx should automatically detect it as a wavetable when loading, which will tune it and set the mode to WT (this mode can be found in the "Regions" tab, next to the "Sample/Matrix" column).

This synth pretty much offers what Helm does, but with an expanded feature set. I think Helm is a great synth, and because of that this one is great too.

I am very much a fan of this plugin. It is a full wavetable synth with FM options and sample loading. While I find the process of converting and adding wavetables/samples to be a bit difficult, and while the UI might be more challenging then most to get used to, this plugin is an overall great choice for sound design.

I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this one. There are so many things this synth has that I barely understand, and I love it for that. It can do anything from creating standard morphs and patches to more weird and noisy things. If you are looking for something that is not only a sound design sandbox, but is something truly unique, all wrapped in a great user interface at a reasonable price, this synth is a fantastic option for you.

This instrument shows promise. It includes a good amount of sounds that, despite the other reviews, I actually think sound good or could be made more useful with enough external processing. However this plugin seems to be much more unstable then the other plugins I have used from Stagecraft. Normally bridging would help with performance issues like with other Stagecraft plugins, however in this case it seems to break the plugin occasionally. Switching between sounds, which is the most important part of an instrument like this, is also very sluggish and makes it much less fun to browse.

This has been my best experience with software from this developer so far. ReContour is a compressor plugin which can be used as a distortion by setting the attack and release to zero, which other compressors are able to do. This plugin lets you create custom compression/distortion curves however, which allows it to create some really interesting effects, and it also allows for upwards compression. On top of that, you can morph between two different shapes. It is a plugin that, to me, is perfect for loud and sound design heavy music, which is the only thing I ever make. It does cause frame rate issues in FL Studio, however bridging in this instance fixes the issue completely and it runs smoothly.

Very fun and interesting plugin. The concept is simple, it makes modulating EQs and filters easy, which allows for really interesting effects. You can also use it like a dynamic EQ, which makes it really good for mixing as well. It does have performance issues inside of FL Studio 2025, however it can be fixed by simply bridging the plugin.

After recent updates the modulation windows no longer get stuck on screen and are usable now. Thank you for these updates, great plugin overall.
