This synth is quite well done – can make some interesting outcomes – but I can’t help thinking that this kind of synth will be beneficial of a few more processor generations. I think back to the old g3 days and some great advances have been made over the years – Aalto Diva etc are the future of va synths – now all we need is a time machine. Off to smoke a blunt and wig out with my synths. Peace GCB
