I'm having to give Modelonia a 10, because of what it can do and what it makes one do. Physical modeling is a sensitive technology and Modelonia is quite daring with what sound modification options it offers to the sound designer. Luckily it appears to have a built-in limiter, so at least your ears and gear won't shatter, giving you the chance to explore sounds of an absolutely unique nature. It produces virtually living sounds that I've never quite heard before, but that can be played so naturally and end up sounding so rich that I just have to consider it a must-have for truly musical musicians, but also the wilder kind.
Though you can create beautiful hammered instruments of the stringed variety and beyond, my favorite power of it lies within lead instruments of the blown kind. Again, I've never quite heard anything like it, but immediately fell in love with it. If you want to break out of any mold, this is a gem to do so.
Read ReviewI'm enthusiastic about modelonia and downloaded the demo. I work on a mac with the latest operating system with the live 9 suite. Modelonia always come up with an error message: "can't load bank, wrong file size" when loading a previously saved song with a modelonia instant.
Is this problem familiar?

At his date (5th of March, 2014) the link for the Windows demo in the download page of the website is broken. Here is the good link at this date:
http://liqihsynth.com/modelonia_1.7.0.6_demo_VSTi_Win.zip
All that I can tell for everybody is that I really love this synth! A must have for this price... which is not $75/€55 but only $45/€32 !!.
FYI, there is a fully functional beta availale here: http://nusofting.liqihsynth.com/modelonia.html.
And despite how it's classified here, it is both 32- and 64-bit compatible.
Taron is quite correct. Modelonia's parameter have a wider range than other PM synths, and there is a wider variety of ways to modify and modulate sounds. It is a fantastic and daring creation.
