FXpansion D-cam Synthsquad - who's got it?

Walkingmachine · Post by **Walkingmachine** » Tue Apr 28, 2009 6:36 am

Who's got the synthsquad?? what do you think? I'm thinking about getting it but i need some reviews....deadmau5 says in his FM interview that he pretty much uses them exclusively and pretty much that they are the best synths ever....sounds pretty convincing, can i get a confirmation on that? thanks!

It's still in Beta testing.

But its awesome.

I'm looking forward to trying them too. Seems like they combined the best parts of many classics into a few synths.
They are to be released in Q2, so any time up until the end of June.

Here's another thread with some links to sound snippets and videos:

What a bunch of crap. About 3 or 4 weeks ago, sweetwater said that they would be shipping it the week after. By all accounts, it's still being beta tested as we speak. I wouldn't hold your breath on anything sweetwater has to say about it.

Correct.

Also correct.

I've got permission to post a demo tune; I'll put one up later this week.

it's really good, but there's a few things that quirk me that are different from early versions of the software.
