Reasoning from Tone2: After seven years of faithful service, the time has come to set the bird free. Firebird itself has become vintage and even though it's no longer profitable to remain a commercial product, we feel that more people should deserve an opportunity to enjoy this sometimes heavily underestimated synthesizer.
Which is why we decided to release one last update and turn the product into freeware (previuosly $79). We want to say a big THANK YOU to all customers who supported the development of Firebird and other Tone2 products, by purchasing our software.

P.S I'm on a MAC. So all you assholes could feel special....I could've not posted this......


so who has the East West Quantum Torrents....fess up(pm me ).

I'm a boss.

FYI I'm starting a thread now for a DSF One Synth Challenge.
Starting with Firebird.

It's a good experiment in synthesis.

Is this better than nt massive?
And does it also has effects like dimension expander and pitch cutoff?

It's the same price that you paid for Massive, if that helps?


Seriously though, it's free. Download it and give it a try. To say one synth is 'better' than another is a matter of personal preference.

Tone 2's synths have a unique character that make them worth while.
The filters have a unique warmness to them.

Is it a trial/demo version or something? o.o
Will try it out tho.

Did you even read the OP?

Free. Pro bono. Sans cashish. Etc...

[Icetickle]

Sorry for dat.

On the bottom of the tone2 firebird page there is a sticker that says "win7 32bit 64bit" but I'm not so sure about that.
Can any 64bit daw users try this? It doesn't even let u choose which version do you want.

EDIT: Just read on ableton forum that it's 32bit only.

[Electric_Head]

Why the sad face?
Just run it as 32bit bridged.
It works perfectly.

This is a dumb-ass question and you know it.

What happened to people actually spending time to research things?
When I first bought this synth I spent ages reviewing it, demoed it, etc.
Why would you just compare it to Massive and write it off if it's different?

Wouldn't write it off, but I can't live without the "pitch cutoff" effect. And yeah, I admit it's a dumb-ass question.

Using this to run it as 32 bridged?

Is anyone else missing the sine waves out of the waveforms? Beauty synth anyway though! Best sounding thing I've heard in a while

[nowaysj]

Wait, what is pitch cutoff?

Thanks op for this. EH, where dat one synth challenge?

[Icetickle]

Wait, what is pitch cutoff?

Technically I have not idea. It's just an effect (I guess) in massive that works great on leads and atmos if used carefully.
But if you put too much it will sound crap.

[azuk]

Pitch Cutoff is just the pitch setting for unison.

[Crimsonghost]

I thought the released this a couple months ago?

I really wished it was Mac also, but oh well.

Speaking of tone2, where the fuck is my bifilter 64bit? And no, I don't want to bridge

I'll post it up in a bit.
Forgot all about it.

[test_recordings]

Seriously, does anyone else have the sine wave available on the oscillators? Excellent otherwise

[nowaysj]

I believe I did, will have to confirm at a later time.
