Hurray! Nice stuff. Now make it a VST as well and bundle it with Reason... soon-ish! ;)

Trialing right now ... good LORD!!!

Setting aside the drool-worthy modular nature of this RE this beast has analog mojo for days rivaling (maybe surpassing?) The Legend, my favorite (until now maybe) analog emulating RE.

And the gut-punching low end on this thing ... :shock:

As a kid, I cut my synth teeth recording multi-track arrangements using an ARP-2600, so this is right up my alley. :D

Crap, now I have to buy this ... :evil:

But on the plus side, it will further delay a wallet-killing foray back into physical modular analog hardware.

I'm worried it's advancing my inevitable slide down the rabbit hole that is modular synths. I already have some hardware picked out, and have already visited the local (and TOTALLY amazing) modular shop (Control, in Brooklyn).

Working on this synth just further focused my attention on the specific types of modules I would want, based on the things I did (and wanted to do but could not do) when programming patches during beta testing.

And not only do I need to purchase this synth now, but also about $3000 worth of modules as well. :o

Well, well, well the Props have done it again. Found a new way to take my money.
Come on you just dropped the Quad note Generator on us and now Complex, at this rate I will be homeless. This isn't even fair to my wallet. Just hold off releasing any addition awesome stuff until at least March/April.

Seriously Keep up the good work. I do like staying in the box and this device definitely something I was looking at buying in the VST world.

Software like this lets me know that the Props probably have products coming in the future that may blow our minds.

I'm excited to play with this when it's (probably) included in Reason 11.

Just messing around with it there. There is plenty of phasing issues and very little sync making it very hard to make kick drums. :(

Unless there is, Iv'e not bothered reading Manuel!

Was just talking about this with someone else.

I use the LFO for kicks, because you can sync it. Just turn it all the way up and it's about right. You can always drive it higher with a positive CV source from either of the amp/mixers.

You can also sync the noise source, btw.
The LPGs are great for envelope/filter/vca all i one. The decay curve is ideal for percussive sounds IMO.

So with just two modules you got drums!

Doubtful. The only "synth" RE that was included in Reason after being in the shop is RadicalPiano...5 years after it was released because they upgraded the stock content and wanted a "better" piano sound. Every other included RE was free for a limited time or always free for the current version users. Not sure why this is a common thought. Drum sequencer might be a possible inclusion with that in mind though.

Excited for the people into modular synthesis. Sure there's limitations with Complex 1, but this is probably the best one can do within a RE. Still powerful however.

Ah yes, I just saw that there! Also that patch was using the velocity to drive the envelope must explore that a bit!

This really needs to be a thing extremely hard to navigate without going into every menu!

Has anyone figured out what is going on in the Complex-1 init patch? When I use "Reset Device", instead of getting a simple saw, I get a triangle with some kind of wave shaping and reverb + echo. But the wave shaper is not patched in, and the reverb is turned off. And I can't even find an echo module.

What is going on in the init patch? How do I strip it down to a simple saw with no effects?

-Ron.
Hi Ron, I merged your question into this topic, hoping it would get more attention in here. Can anyone answer Ron's question? Thanks!
Sorry, I meant to retract that post shortly after I posted it. It turned out I had a copy of Reaktor running in the background that was adding the artifacts. Driver error.

There's a velocity jack if you'd rather just drag it "physically".

Actually it just sounded much cooler than just "Complex". But hey, if you like it: who knows?

Can't seem to drag from an output only an in.
