KVR Audio

Anyway, now that I can see the GUI, diving into this thing and like what I'm hearing. It's sound is different from Dune 2, Massive and Serum. in fact, when you dive into all 4, they all have their own little quirks. My favorite of the 4 is still Dune 2 but will work with Spire for a decent amount of time before I make that official.

what is the point of anything

Well, usually people want to know one thing or another when they open threads...

And it looks like Wag's rant/opinion has taken a u-turn, which has happened with other synths as well if I remember correctly.

Massive and spire are a lot of like. Both harsh digital wave sweeping bass line EDM stuff. Spite can do a lot more of the analog side due to the filters but it needs to be cleaned up in a bad way. I'm expecting a nice update in the not to distant future.

Man, you couldn't be more wrong.

I've learned to kind of take what he says with a very small grain of salt.

Oh, by the way, I'm really loving this thing.

Now I can show people that Spire can be something other than a wub wub, supersaw machine.

This bank may not sell but I'm sure gonna enjoy using it. LOL.

Spire is really good. I like its versatility, and for tight, punchy sounds. But sometimes I hear way too much aggressive, harsh, effects loaded sounds from EDM sound designers.

If that is the point of this thread, it isn't even close to LOL.

No, because I had absolutely no intention of buying what I considered an overpriced me too wub wub supersaw synth. None. So I'm totally surprised that I now own this thing.

And no, I have no intention of making yet ANOTHER EDM preset machine.

So yeah, I'll pretty much be making this for my own use and maybe, if I'm lucky, 2 other people.

And I'm perfectly fine with that because this thing sounds great and is a joy to program now that I can see what I'm doing.

Fine..close the thread please.

Spire is pretty much and EDM preset machine. BUT, it is so versatile, and it will deviate from typical EDM if you wish.

Oh, I'm sorry. Did somebody make you the boss of what threads stay open and get closed?

Guess i should post snippets of the sounds i'm making with Spire sometimes. Everyone seems to think just because 95% of soundsets for it are EDM related, that you can only get EDM out of it.

(which sounds damn good with it BTW, just like many other things)

EDM? Just as long as you don't use the cardinal sin of EDM
