Aquios X4 Workstation ROM for 9 Euros
Is ti really that bad? I know you're gonna say "Yes, it is." But I don't understand why do you think that. I've listened some sounds from the page and they'r ok. Nothing special, but how special it needs to be for 9bucks?
Don't feel like downloading that much content now, just want to see why is this such a bad rompler, because I've seen it being bashed before, just can't remember why.
So if it's not a problem for you repeating what you've maybe already said before...would appreciate it.

It has been a while back when i tested it. Sounds were thin, boring and old AFAIR. The GUI sucked too. I am probably not a DNA Labs fan at all. May work for ppl looking for that sounds - its just not for me. I dont get things anymore just because they are cheap or they are free.Mataya wrote: ↑06 Nov 2019Is ti really that bad?

I get what your saying. Gui is a bit strange, but sounds were fine from the demo. I remember that heavyocity rompler sounded really bad. This one sounds kinda ok to me. I'll probably download it and check it out. I don't really need a rompler so that's why I'm not going to buy it...was just curious.

It's not that you can't squeeze out some ok sounds with this thing. I'm sure you can make some decent music with this if you put your mind to it.
But why would I choose to use this one over so many other synths I own that can produce much better and more interesting sounds? Because it's 9 bucks? No thanks.
I've tried it btw. Not a fan of the sounds it makes.

Yes I can. It's just another Rompler. Spend the money on beer and make music with a synth you already own.
But this is not really a synth and I thought the orchestral stuff could be cool if it's recorded right.
hahaha...no really, I don't need it or want it, just saw a couple of time people saying it's shit and I didn't quite get why.
4.2 GB of cheesy presets. Fine if you're scoring a straight-to-video futuristic action film in the early 90s, but otherwise no thanks
The problem: most of the presets DNA did are not as so good (like most of his ReFills are too not worth the money )
For 9,- bucks the Basesamples of this RE are really very good. And if you'll spend a little time, you can program your own, really great sounds.
So I think 9,- are a very good price for this RE.
in my eyes, All other RE's of DNA are actually overpriced ...

In addition to foresaid, I think that DNA Labs romplers are not bad - they really have some nice presets, some good sounding pads, as for others - they become better being layered, so, possibly try to experiment for a while. I like Hydronexius, it works fine for my type of music, and I use it. But ! For some strange reasons DNA Labs make instruments and refills sounding almost exactly the same. So if you have one instrument from them, there's no need to get another one. They released Helium some time ago and I personally don't feel any interest to it and won't get it even if it becomes 9 $ (I'm sure it will be in some perspective).
So, if you are interested in such type of instrument and sounds, 9 $ is not a bad deal. But don't you buy two of them )))

actaully it has some of the nicer string patches! also, i use it for the brass and quick piano patches. i think that developers should look more into making a resynthesis algorithm for reason and RE. rather than just more romplers.
i think that if reason could have something even remotely close to harmor, we would not need so many romplers. while they are fun, quick, and sound good, they take up waaaaayyy tooo much space.

Well, I could not resist from trying Helium, and I deleted it almost right away after going through patches. As I expected, it doesn't have any actual difference from Hydronexius and Aquiox, it contains presets, sounding very similar to them, moreover, from my point of view Hydronexius has more stunning sounds. As a user I would like to see the evolution of the instruments, but it looks like they will never be touched again, and the developer produces just one more copy of existing tools with the same possibilities and sounding the same. That looks very strange for me.
