so this isn't Zebra3?? can't wait for Zebra3 though... then the upgrade from Zebra2 will be only 30$... AND... you get the Dark Zebra (PLUS, the essential ZebraHZ) for FREE!... *yes*
Listening to the demo music I hope this isn't another EDM-ready synth, full of presets that sound the same. I know you can tweak presets by your own, but that kind of sounds discourage me to tweak anything and I pass on. Like Spire for example. Played with it a bit... and after a while... it was history in my disk. A question of taste. Now, the Spire lovers.. shoot me
zeusgodbcn you speaking my mind! Wouldn`t dare to put that out. ... it`s a great synth, but a "often dated lady" meanwhile like Massive or Sylenth. I used it for "Virus style" basslines in a couple of projects. Now it`s catching dust ... Let`s be diplomatique, a question of taste for shure.
Ayah almost the same. I always play few notes on some random factory presets in spire, I get sad and close it to open some other synth. And I like it a lot, but sometimes I need a quick i.e. bass preset to start tweaking, I find nothing and pass the hand lol. It sound great though. Also Serum is EDM oriented, but I don't see it that way like Spire. No it's not gonna be something like LUSH. Let's see. Btw before this synth they will release Presswerk compressor ;)
When Urs first announced it last year he said it was going to be way less resources requiring compared to his other synths while trying to keep the quality high ;) I'm on mobile so I can't link that thread
Speaking about over used EDM sounds (massive, sylenth, spire..) ? Those lush-101, arturia, XILS... old school sounds are more than over used : they are dead and in decomposition since the 90's If you want modern and less over used sounds, Z3ta 2, Serum and more are a better solution than looking in the past searching for something already gone for long. That's why i erased all my Arturia, XILS...even ImpOSCar 2 (killer bass) after thinking it was going to inspire me creating new things.Not. If i want to listen to old school good synthesis, i can listen to my countless progressive rock albums (King Crimson, Yes, Camel...) I never liked ANA,Diversion, Zebra, Massive...i don't know why, but it is a question of taste.Don't like their "signature", even if they can do a lot of things. I like Serum, Spire, Z3ta 2, some "special" Sylenth banks, Komplexer,ACE...and more Synths can do a lot more than what they are supposed to fill as "market" See the TB303. Listen to over-cloned Vanguard expansions (like Nexus)...and listen to Bigtone Signature http://soundcloud.com/refxaudio/vanguard-expansion-bigtone So back to the subject, U-He is probably making his own "EDM" synth. But to me, "EDM synth" concept is pure bullsh*t. I use "EDM synths" to make indus/metal/goth tracks...and it is not Avici It is not because Vengeance and such spend their time making every synth sounding the same that a synth is "EDM". If you go that way, every synth can be "trap/Farfisa" if you use SSO banks Just don't use presets or use CLEVER presets. There are ppl with talent making "out of EDM/Dubstep/whatever" soundbanks. And on the positive side, there are so few of them compared to others you will spend LESS time finding a preset than crawling a 1 million presets Sylenth presets clones PS : sorry about the long post
On the contrary, Urs once pointed out that he is sick of people accusing all U-he synths as CPU hogs, so he wants to proove that he can program a Sylenth killer with less CPU use than Sylenth - look at KVR, he is comparing his synth to "the other synth", and I'm damn sure that he meant the big S.
