    I wanted to test it and possibly buy it, I looked for a test version, but there is no test version. There is also no PDF to read and there is very little information on their website www.landr.com/plugins/landr-synthx . I couldn't find any reviews or tests. I don't even know what it sounds like.

    It must have just come out I suppose? I couldn't find any info on their website either. I saw it on audio deluxe at half off.

    It's also available elsewhere for $49.50. www.samplesoundmusic.com/products/landr-synth-x-innovative-sound-design-engine www.kvraudio.com/product/landr-synth-x-by-landr-audio But it's an old marketing trick, they suggest you're saving money, you have to get it now, but in theory it's only worth $50 and that doesn't imply high quality.

    Alternative: The Vital is a very good sounding wavetable synth and has a high reputation. https://vital.audio

    not necessarily, sometimes you make an intro offer to help to get people talk about it. Doesnt have to be only worth 50 bucks.

    of course vital is very hard to beat, since its completely free.

    and what really bugs me here is those sliders to switch wavetable on the GUI. it feel unconformtable.

    otherwise i like the GUI.
    That there is no demo or anything is another bad thing. simply for that i wouldnt buy it - before i havnt worked or tested it for myself.

    I bought the LANDR - Synth X...49,50 EUR.
    Unfortunately there was no video with music examples and no way to test it.

    The most important thing is how does it sound? It sounds bright, clear and silky.
    I created 5 custom presets: click here and download a few sound examples from Mega.
    https://mega.nz/file/2qpHUKBa#N6MBrPMLGycW5LwpGeDCOYGxeIqeKMVg9WPReDbXw90

    A short video of the functions without sound:
    https://mega.nz/file/OvYxnZ4S#fCyFHSYILUp5Wwr9COSSFTtCJw2WAFBW66vIWgzFPLc

    The GUI is very user-friendly, the controls are good and clear, the GUI can be enlarged. This company also saved the manual as a PDF. For some controls and functions there is an explanation that lights up when you move the mouse over it, but not for all of them.

    Note about payment: if you buy from BestServive you can also pay with PayPal, LADNR only accepts credit cards.
    www.bestservice.com/en/synth_x.html You will receive a code by email, you then have to register with LANDR and can then enter the serial number and download the Synth X (700 MB).

    Nice, so it's worth the half price? I'm waiting to get my download key. I bought it too from, audiodeluxe.com
    I'll definitely check out your presets for sure.

    Congratulations, I'm curious to hear what you think of the factory presets.
    My problem is that I can no longer hear about 33% of the highs.

    I will definitely give you my opinion if they ever send my license. They sent me an email saying they needed more info and asked about my studio. I'm like wtf I don't own a studio just a bedroom dabbler like most LOL

    They collect a bit of data on the side, data is the new gold. At LANDR they want a user profile, but I didn't fill it out.
    You should be notified by email after payment. Always a tricky thing, I'm surprised it all works anyway.

    Interesting, it looks like the built-in synth in the Hexachords Orb plugins.

    Thanks for the picture, it looks almost exactly like the Synth X.
    I think the Synth X is the successor to the Orb? After all, LANDR took over the company:
    17th October 2024 --> LANDR acquires Orb Plugins

    No it doesn't, in a market with the beasts like Serum, Vital, PhasePlant, Equator2 and now Current2 one need to offer something unique to the table while this one looks like just as an usual VA synth with a WT possibilities. Wonder what DSP program they used? It looks to me as a stock pile math compilation without any creativity involved, thus the price (the overprice if you ask me, it should be in the W.A.Production range of 14$ or so)

    Babylon has discovered a gap in the market, it is targeting people with little money in the oversaturated virtual synthesizer market and/or people who think, 'Oh, that's cheap, I'll buy it...!

    ' Starting at 99 euros, which is a normal market price, you try to sell as much as you can and when sales drop, you have summer sales and winter sales and if you hardly sell anything, you get 15 euros - 10 euros, a 90 percent discount. There was once a company called AAS that was almost bankrupt, they sold everything for 12 euros and are still on the market today because they invented products that people need and buy.

    playing with it now, and its very limited. the free vital blows this thing away. Limited routing, effects, modulation, etc. Not worth the price at all. The only thing it has going for it is the randomization, but even that could be better. Oh yah, and its crashed on me. Twice. Force closing ableton and all.
