Sounds and looks dreamy-gorgeous and the DAW integration is comprehensive even if, as I seem to find, one can only use one 'instance' of it. Then again, if one has a Stradivarius violin, one can only have one person playing it at a time too!! My favourite synth module.

It is far easier to work with for someone with little or no programming experience and in my opinion, sounded every bit as good as its bigger siblings. Of course, for the selling price it will not have the polyphony or multi-timbral numbers of its big brothers. Big selling point is its size. This baby is small. You could take it, an MPC 500 and say a M-audio KeyRig 25, put them in your backpack and have quite a powerful, portable setup. I'm going for it when it is released.

I think they’ve got to be under that – we should know in a couple days.

It sound good and the idea of hardware working with your software is definitely here to stay.

[from the Snow teaser page] I've only ever had issue with the price of the Virus line, if this truly has the same polyphony/timbrality as the TI and somehow manages to hit the $1000 mark i'm in it, no question. Big ups for breaking this story for me. “It’s like getting a sports car for the price of a scooter”…
