    a bit off topic, but mind to share?

    I assume you are the dev for Parawave/Rapid?

    While I'm still deciding whether or not to invest in this synth, it's nice to see a response here, and that you're planning to keep the feature updates rolling in. Hopefully it wont be another 2 years until the next ;)

    Can you please tell me what your update policy is - i.e., are updates free forever or will version 2.0, if that ever happens, come with additional purchase price? Most devs are upfront about that, but I couldn't find that info anywhere on your site.

    A friendly suggestion, try answering "contact us" message emails. Its a big BIG turnoff when you don't reply at all. And not entirely unrelated, it would be nice if members subscribed to Parawave receive news about updates, new releases and whatnot (I have yet to receive anything about any of this news or sales), otherwise constantly chasing up the latest news is a PITA.

    @Olymoon Nice one. Insight on the +/- of a synth from somebody who has used it for a long while is very useful information!

    @kingchubby I am happy for you! As I mentioned above, I am still on the fence. I have a very tight budget to work with this Black Friday sales period. Vanguard 2 and Basslane Pro have my interest as well. But I cant afford to buy all of them :(

    Updates have been free for me so far the last, uh almost 3 years now so I assume it's going to stay that way. I do agree on you earlier points though, it would be nice to have more updates and more info on future updates/stuff in the works. I sometimes think they are dying out until a new update randomly comes out reminding me they indeed do still have a pulse, haha.

    Yeah and it also sucks I get my update info from people complaining there is no update info available. I never know to be on the lookout because I visit the site very seldom so thanks for reminding me to download the new version.

    No please, not here. Use pm for that as it would be completely off topic.

    You're welcome. If you tell me what genre of music you do, and how much you like to get involved in synthesis, I may help you to make a choice.
