If I was going to grab any of the current UA deals, this would probably be the one. Anyone using the synth?

One word of caution for UAD (for those unaware), unlike most other companies they usually do not give you any kind of credit whatsoever if you later upgrade to a different or larger bundle that contains products you already own. I only mention this because if you have your eye on larger bundles (or their signature bundle) for some point in the future, you are better off waiting until that larger bundle is on sale instead of getting the smaller bundles with overlapping products. Great products, but customer-unfriendly upgrade policy.

Curious how these plugins perform on a system without UAD Appolo audio interface.

Are they pc-hungry then or still OK?

It's a pretty cool synth, I just haven't had much time to explore it. It is a classic wavetable based synth with a few unique features such as a variable slope control (something I'm well familiar with!!) and variable filter mode (morphing between LP, BP, HP and other shapes), a cool randomize feature that adds slight randomization to any LFO shape, and a great multi-segment generator for drawable LFOs or Envelope with complex curves and up to 32 stages!

I have an Apple Studio Max so I don't see a heavy load with these plugins, any more than others. AND I have an Apollo interface but that doesn't come into play when running these native plugins.
