I guess so. For the Windows version, it also says "beta", but, as far as i'm concerned, it's stable. I never witnessed a bug really. It's quite a solid plugin.braindistortion wrote:Cool to hear that I'm wrong! it seems to be in beta since.... a long time!?chk071 wrote:You're wrong. http://www.kvraudio.com/product/synth1-by-ichiro-toda It's a beta, but it's available.braindistortion wrote:Yeah, Tyrell and Dexed are great. It's sad that Synth1 isn't available for Mac (correct me if I'm wrong).

Uups... i really like it and bought the full version (on a sale) shortly after i tryed the Mikro version. One of my favourite tools for organic but from another world timbres. There are not so much tools where you can get such lively sounds with so less effort.thecontrolcentre wrote:Yeah I've heard of Google thanks.
