blames tools? nah man, z3ta blows away superwave in terms of phatness, I will also prove that another way, change yer suprwave waveforms to saw, and all i here a thin ass tone.


ugh. zeta is a 6 oscillator monster with an extensive mod matrix and effects section. superwave trance pro is a 2 oscillator synth with a rather limited LFO and a simple delay on it. it also costs a 1/10th of the price of zeta and if you spend 24 quid (7 quid more), you get superwave pro with it. would be excellent value if it werent for the bugs. and unlike many cheapy VSTi softsynths it doesnt sound too out of place right in the front of a mix. blames tools? oh yes. ive heard too many tunes where people have made fruity's TS404 sound good to think that cheapy synths are good for nothing. zeta has a tighter bass end than trance pro, but both are different tools for different purposes. admittedly zeta is a more versatile instrument. but you can get cracking sounds out of both if you program it well and use it in the right place.

rb2k1. nope dont create synths in synthedit. i looked at the reaktor demo and it scared the living shit out of me. but i have used synthedit synths (superwave p8, pro, trance pro), supersaw plus demo and your supersaw 06. all of them are damn good little peices of software. for specific purposes though. i dont feel as if they are holding back my production. in fact, i think i have a hella lot to learn and the more i program these synths, the better sounds i can get out of them. i dont think i can keep up this rate of improvement. but right now, im the limiting factor in my productions. not my tools. i dont really expect this to change any time soon.

alot of people, not just here have a tendancy to blame their instruments for their own inability to get great sounds out of them.

not commenting on superwave ssonic texture or freq response, rather the annoying bug that synthedit imposes by phasing the first note or two when a buffer is cleared... and yes im sure there are work arounds, like play a note or two before each section, and sample each out to an audio track, then cut off those rogue notes//.

but this is not why i got into the vst synth world in the first place.

wow. all the hard work it must take to render two loops and just chop off the first. seeing as i bounce everything down anyway to save cpu (and because my fucking 1010's asio drivers crash my PC on high cpu loads) its really not that much hassle. it'll end up in soundforge either way.

biggest problem i have with superwave is their customer and product support. or lack of.

chopping up audio coming from softsynths should have to be done.. nuff said... z3ta doesnt need it done, why should superwave's... though i didnt notice the issue on performer for some odd reason

ah i saw someone mention pro53.. yea it does have a gorgeous sound that NI did a nice job with, unison mode also really fat and solid sounding.. turns to mono when u unison it tho, but its a small cpu footprint so loading 3 is easy and not too bad on the machine

Superwave can sound nice but it sounds no where near a supersaw. it sounds like way too many saw oscs trying and failing to perform a simple lead sound.

i don't really get why everyone is still trying to jump on the supersaw bandwagon, wasnt it full like 3 years ago?

but anyways, go for a pro 53. it'll have to be in mono (1 voice) but still, its the closest you'll get to a supersaw besides using something like vaz (someone around here was making an emulation using vaz that sounded spot on)

JP is a modern day tb 303. agreed. they sell on ebay for more than virus b's now. they get a helluva lot more bids too. amazing how this synth is still in such high demand years after it was discontinued.
