free synths like sonigen modular sound way better

I agree, it seems to lack power and clarity. Pretty awful sound quality, plus the interface seems to make my cpu jump up a lot in cubase, no need for graphics and animations like this on a music program. Not impressed at all.

i love synths with several synthesis types but the quality is absent. yeh CPU usage is a joke, high as diva although diva isnt worth comparing to cyflop

When I first saw it I thought it looked really cool minus the Wobble Knob. For some reason having a "wobble knob" seems really lame to me, but regardless of that it provides a lot of really great automations that seems extremely easy to control. Sad to hear the sound quality is lacking. Not surprised its a CPU hog though

I have created much better bass sounds in Cyclops than I have in Massive! Once you get passed how to use the thing, its incredibly powerful!

Testing this out and not getting much out of it basswise. One patch so far that could actually function as a bass. Of course im a huge noob for now, but i get the feeling its actually more suited for entirely different kinds of sounds. The overload of modulation option has to be worth something even though it really just seems... too much.

its trash if i was you id uninstall it, you can make much better sounds distorting basic waveforms.

Im leaning towards doing that, but i just have that odd feeling im missing something since Sugarbytes is usually quite awesome.

theyre alright at FX, not really into WOW filter but i like some of their other stuff. they seem to suck at making synths for some reason.

Vogue is incredible for abuse purposes.

The learning curve is weird. It doesn't make it a bad synth imho.
Kind of mix Effectrix, WOW, and a bit of Massive (not its best side). The sampler feature is nice.
It's heavy, and cluttered. I use it a bit.
