You know how you have a gazillion soft synths and need them all to do even the smallest different synth sound?wagtunes wrote:Okay, I don't mean to be a downer on this because it looks really cool, but it's a kick. I didn't hear any sound (the kicks) that I can't make in any synth or by using Battery 4 or any other drum library. And we're not talking about a whole drum set. We're talking about a kick.
I know there are very specialized plugins like EQs, Compressors, Reverbs, etc. But seriously, it's a kick drum. The price on this thing would have to be so ridiculously low to even consider getting it. I mean who in their right mind (just pulling a price out of thin air) would pay $99 just to make a kick drum? Even $49.
What am I missing here? What makes this so special? Or is this going to be a very low priced item (would have to be under $30 for me) that makes it a no brainer to get?
Because I am just not seeing it.
Is it just me? If it is, what am I missing?
Well, the same can be said for techno/house producers and their kick drums.

They're one of the most appropriate company to do this kind of stuff, with a complete experience of making excellent product line such as Drum Machines, Audio Processors, Synths and even a drum sound library. Not many have such expertise. I've been waiting for a rack system for their Silver Line with an ability to load VSTs and rich modulation. It's great that they're starting with a rack based product, the future development could be very exciting.

Not something I plan on buying, but it sure does look cool. I'm just happy they didn't give it another stupid name, like Phoscyon or Nithonat.

I hope it doesn't introduce as much latency as some of their recent plugins...crystalmsc wrote:They're one of the most appropriate company to do this kind of stuff, with a complete experience of making excellent product line such as Drum Machines, Audio Processors, Synths and even a drum sound library.

I'm already getting option paralysis just by the looks of the GUI. I never got the compulsion to always find a need to load samples in a drum SYNTHESIZER plugin.
Sorry if that is being a downer. Other than that, I am curious about the sound of the synth modules.

I love all D16 plugins, they sounds really good! Can't wait to get my hands on this beauty!
