Version reviewed: 1 on Windows
So, your sitting in front of your computer head in hands for the millionth time saying to yourself "why the hell do my tracks not sound like my favourite producers". I've read the magazine production articles, I purchased the new compressors and exciters and I even bought that new soft synth that scored 9/10 in my favourite music making magazine but I'm still struggling. Thought about giving up this whole music making thing?
Well before you do - stop!!! Go to the Gmedia website and download the demos and be prepared to fall back in love with making music on the computer again. The Imposcar is the single best soft synth I have ever heard. It cuts through the drum track like a knife and sits beautifully in the mix. You flick through the presets and just smile to yourself. Knowingly.
I am not writing this review as a technical insight into all the modulation possibilities or to highlight the signal flow of this synth. I am writing this review as a (previously) frustrated bedroom producer who has been surfing the web, reading ALL the music making magazine articles and reviews for 3 years looking for a range of soft synths that actually cut it . I've been through most of VSTi's available and NONE apart from Absynth 2 have stayed on my hardrive. Gmedia synths have. Period.
If you want to get on with making music, being creative and get back to enjoying and having fun with producing then buy this synth. If you want to stop thinking to yourself "maybe I better read the manual of that old VSTi on your hardrive again" as your not satisfied with the sound its producing then buy this synth. Yes, there is a magical quality to Gmedia synths and most importantly they SIT IN THE MIX. Something that many soft synth manufacturers claim but actually fail to deliver!
In my opinion Gmedia make the most essential and usable range of soft synths in the world. This company has single handedly got me back to feeling positive about the possibility of one day, of making "pro sounding" music. And selling it.
The only soft synth that I would give 10 out of 10 for sound, filters, presets and mixability. End of.Read Review
