I've got to agree with this assessment. Chipi is correct that it has a ton of sounds for a reasonable price, and ON TOP of the sampled sounds one can add effects, LFOs, and envelopes, but ultimately they're all just add-ons. If you just want a nice sound (and there are so many in there that you'll find plenty to like), great. But, if you're trying to nail a particular sound, and you find that it was sampled with a too-long attack, you can't make it shorter. (You could overlay a slow attack envelope on top of the sample, but you can't go in the other way). It's essentially just a big (very big) rompler of nicely-sampled sounds with the ability to add LFO/ADSR modulation and after affects. Great for discovering lots of neat sounds, not so good for sound designing a particular sound.Big load of samples, fixed waveforms with generic filters, fx etc. it sounds good but it’s pretty limited….more Rompler than synth.Can somebody please explain to me, if this is a complete emulation of synths with full modulation capabilities, like crossmodulation of OSC or audio rate FM of Filters etc., or 'just' a big load of samples with fixed waveforms going through a reduced chain of filters, effects etc.?
The collection has some interesting devices, but I would prefer full editing. I owned for example an Xpander and used its modulation possibilities a lot.
Exactly, you said it right, I mean to have direct sounds with analog tinge, Syntronik sounds incredibly authentic, to design sounds from scratch does NOT work, but it still depends on the taste of each user.
