via the seller: "This synth is really something special. It's received rave reviews in all the magazines and they are completely justified. I was lucky enough to contribute to the sound library and I had a great time working on this synth. They've really covered all vintage bases with this synth. It does an outstanding job of sounding like the great analogues from the 70's and 80's. Arp, SCI, Moog, Roland et al. It can also sound thoroughly modern thanks to the great selection of digital wavetables. Add to that the lovely sounding filters, then on top of that it's awesome FX section. The Perfomance mode is where this thing really comes to life. It's basically 4 stacked synthesizers. So any oscillator configuration is covered from all those classic synths. Here's an example of how I programmed the Vox Humana sound from the great Moog Polymoog 203a. On Program 1 I got a bit of PWM going with the LFO modulating the square waveshape, then added a bit of vibrato so the pitch modulates. On Program 2 I added a saw wave and modulated the pitch slightly with a slightly different rate to the LFO in Program One. Then I whacked on the Ensemble effect and Bam! Instant Numan!"
