I will try the Demo. Great to see your are working fulltime for your dreams. This is not a DX7 it is your own creation with FM technology. The market is full of synthesizers, but I like your work and 250 presets is an argument! I miss presets for the scope synthesizers because this hides the full potentce of a synth, and I browse through the presets and adjust a little bit to make it fit perfect into the Mix, and all is good. I guess many people do this, because it is timesaving and effective for the concentration to composing and mixing process, there is no time for soundcreation from scratch.

Spent some time today taking an init patch and shaping it into a simple but very lush sounding pad. Took only a short time to get semi familiar with the layout but got stuck for a bit initially.
Faxi; This might be a something for you to look into or maybe it's my system but here's what happened when I loaded the init patch.
Additive out was playing the correct notes but Subtractive out SUB OSC A was playing notes a tri-tone higher with Oct-Semi-Fine showing 0.
When I go and select the drop down "semi" and select 0 it changes it to the correct note and then it works fine thereafter even when selecting a new patch and going back to the init patch.
Anyway, not a big deal but it was kind of a strange thing and it threw me off in the beginning because I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. Not sure if this affects other patches but I did notice the same thing happening on the patch: Aolian Meditation Play.
So as usual OSS has knocked it out of the park with their latest creation.
I really like it because it has a simple layout with minimal menu diving but can still create really big fluid sounds.
Thanks for the Xmas present Faxi
My specs: Win7 64bit vsti on Reaper

I worked through the very great presets with the standalone win32-version.
Here I noticed a big latency in the order of 300ms.
Is there some way to improve this or do I have to go the vst-way ?

in standalone did you use asio driver? if you use the windows "primary sound driver" there will be latency, if you use the scope asio, its rock solid like anything with scope asio.

Hi, I picked this cool instrument up...
Excellent presets! You're always good for presets..

And good to see a manual, as I was a bit lost when I fired it up myself. But, 20 minutes with the synth and the manual goes a long way...
And yes in standalone mode, make sure you use an ASIO driver. Selector for audio interface in standalone version on top-left corner..
Nice one Yaron! Eanna

Some real sweet spots in there. One last night - a patch that I think was designed for lead - play a single note down in the bass registers, some super harmonic stuff pops out. Very cool.

something that i really like to do, is make something intresting but kinda narrow with the additive, then with subtractive place a square one octave under and a tri one octave above, with the subtractive volume on soft. really cool weight. maybe some unison on the additive to blur it more.

I picked this and the Aeolian bundle up in the past month...I really like the mix of Additive synthesis as an oscillator in a subtractive synth format!

Hallo Faxi, my Meditation and the polyphenom do not apear in Studio one 4 as an vst Instrument. What can I do? Use win 10.
So I can't use it within Studio one. Also the Dummy Trick didn't work.

uggggggggh damn Studio One. The only DAW that causes us problems.
Studio One Prime (not that it even matters since they don't support VST) crashes on launch on my main system. This is the only DAW that does this.
Studio One is like the only DAW that does not allow VST in their free version. So annoying.
Studio One support is really awful, and they never respond to my emails in the developer contact.
Even when we found the source of the issue the last time and offered them a hint to the solution, no response from them.
Not that it matters, you bought it from us and not from them and deserve support. I will yet again open a support ticket at Presonus as well as contact them via the developers email i have and also try to research myself.
I would guess the issue has to do with their plugin scanner (and probably it is an issue on their side), but hard for me to confirm and look for a fix by guessing.
Are there plugins from other manufacturers that are also not showing there?
Just to clarify, our plugins work for you no problem on other DAWs, and on Studio One as well just not on combination of Studio One on Windows 10?
