    I find Glitchmachines software counter intuitive and cumbersome, but I never really gave any of it a deep dive. I have several of their products that were on sale at Plugin Boutique over the years. They seem to be geared toward very specific genres.

    This sounds horrible. I usually like this company but no doubt this one is being sold for 9 eur. Very uninspiring and too limited.

    Thanks for the heads up though.

    I agree that at least this one is very hard to tame. Personally I use it almost like a random sound design tool.
    Throwing some samples at it, turning some knobs and hoping I get lucky, lol
    But, like you, I never took much time to study it.
