It’s really starting to bug me that “what you hear” is not always “what you get”. At $20 per algorithm, it should be easier to at least get the advertised sound right off the bat. I’m referring to the demo you hear when you click on “Listen” One would think that the initial presets, delivered with the algorithm, would be the settings used in the demo tracks. For example, I purchased Synthonizer and can’t come anywhere near the demo “theramine style” tone, plus all the included presets, specially the Flute which I might find useful” yodle all over the place and are very inconsistant. This one is useless to me. I also purchased the PitchFlex based on that sweet auto-wah demo provided. Again, the presets sound nothing like that and after an hour of tweaking last night, I gave up on trying.
Having said all that, I will add that I love the lush sounds of all the patches I have managed to put together, especially the Plate Reverb.
I’m using a Variax 500 running into a HD500X via VDI cable. I have the H9 set up in my FX Loop and can control where the H9 is placed in the chain and trust me when I say that I have tried it in many different places.
Sorry if it sounds like I am venting but when I feel like I have spent $20 on something I can’t use, it’s upsetting. Next time I will try out the algroithm first. Trust is always my acheles heel.
