Yeah.. andromeda is on the wishlist. :)
But it's lack of polyphony sucks. Not to mention hearing of all the faulty units many have problems with.. |

edit: i decided to NOT add EQ on the high end to copy the virus TI's software-like thin sounding noise generating digital cold filter! |

Lack of polyphony? It has 16 voices! If you want a lack of polyphony, get a mono synth. :P
Only one batch has the tuning problem you're thinking of... I think they were manufactured around 2006. |

Well 16 voices might be ok for some1 who likes bouncing to wav a lot, but I've got a completely live, render free studio working so 16 just doesn't cut it. Maybe one day when I've got 10 HW synths... for now I'd rather go for the waldorf Q+ or stromberg.. Is there some unofficial VST editor for andromeda? Like for nords and blofeld? |

Some more clips for you to think about :
Sylenth-1 : This time with delay (no one else seems to have done that)
Sylenth 1 with Delay
Sylenth 1, No Delay
Albino 3:
Albino 3 with Delay
Albino 3, No Delay
Sylenth clip sound very close to the original virus clip. I urge you to A/B them in a program like ableton; sync them up and use the cross fader to switch between them.
At the lowest filter setting they do sound a bit different, but really, can you honestly say one sounds *better* than the other? Yeah, sure, there's personal preference, but don't try to tell me that the Virus sounds "miles better" than the Sylenth... They are different synths so they are bound to sound different. The virus has more body but the sylenth is more airy (feel free to interpret these words as you like :))
Albino doesn't come as close, though, but still does a good job. |

| Well, I think Sylenth and Albino both sound just as good. |

The virus and THOR on the first page...sound utterly identical, save that one is louder than the other. given the same volume, no one unbiased would say they sound different.
What would be better is if someone who owned Virus aswell as Z3ta or such made the same exact sound on both synths, and posted them, without telling anyone which was which, then everyone does a poll to which sounds better, than said artist reveals which is which. |

This has been done a million times and the end result is always the same: 50% wrong, 50% right (hypothesis: on average, no one can tell the difference).
Anyway, the Sylenth example is so close I don't think anyone would be able to tell in a blind test... EVER. |
