Very good looking GUI, and nice sound too - especially the basses.
Couple of suggestions:
1) How about making the "Note Priority" switch (on the back) fixed, so it doesn't remember any program change. That way, when you change presets you don't have to "flip the synth around" everytime to change the setting. Of course it is possible in most hosts to simply edit the presets and save as a new .fxb file, but not so in Logic.
2) While playing it I noticed you've got Aftertouch hard-wired to filter cutoff, but I can't find any way to control it's depth. Therefore, any slight pressure on a sustained note will open the filter - quite a lot sometimes. Any chance of adding a depth control for this..?
Personally I prefer to control cutoff with the Mod Wheel, and use aftertouch for Pitch LFO Depth. But I know of other players who like the opposite, so I'm aware that you can't please everyone. Unless you add a simple Mod Matrix - Hint, hint...
But overall, this is a very nice sounding and good looking synth. Well done and thanks very much.

Well actually, I was more or less prepared for the usual "been there, done that" around here.Sicklecell666 wrote: Quality on this level will make you a definate favorite for many people..I'd say this is a fantastic debut..
So thanks a lot Sickle.

That's a good idea. Shouldn't be too hard.andywanders wrote: 2) While playing it I noticed you've got Aftertouch hard-wired to filter cutoff, but I can't find any way to control it's depth.

This is really a good sounding synth! GUI is top notch too.
