BLOODY HELL!

is that real? Is it modular? Is that the only new thing?

thats what i was thinking, since there's 2 synths, combinator, samplers that can make synth sounds...do we need another synth?

"there" customers are raving about this over on the props forum.

and also I didn't expect another subtractive and wavetable combi..
those are already covered by subtractor and malstrom..

would've liked something in the FM or additive department..

the analog buzz is still alive..

Looks kinda like a downscaled Massive. Way downscaled.

well..
Massive Ultra Lite perhaps.. :lol:

seriously; the longer I look at it, the less enthousiastic I get..
Malstrom was such an original/interesting concept,
but this looks like a summary of synth history;
-Moog' Ladder filter..
-Arp 2600 raw esthetics..
-PPG blue-ish wavetable osc's..
-Old school knobs..

but heck; if it sounds good,
justify the thing..

Note the drop down boxes next to the name of each module...

I bet this thing is way more "modular" and customizable than we currently realize.

yeah.. but why put it in a second hand jacket?
make it worthwhile to go into history as THE reason synth that had it's own charismatics..

but I guess this fits perfectly into reason' concept;
as much 'real life' reference as possible..
don't scare people with abstracts..

anyway..
hope the damn bugger sounds awesome..

i think the concept looks cool. sound demos in the props page are kind of lame but i'm sure not a lot of effort went into them.

and i doubt it'll be the only addition... or shoud i say, i hope.



i'm just really hoping they finally update the filter module. PLEASE give us some highpass!

Here's the NAMM demo

the audio feed on this sucks...this can't be the Props' "official" video, i'm sure...

i thought i was the only one who thought like this.........so it is finally going to be full screen gui at least, right?
