no mention on the amount of patches in manual or on page... how many presets provided?

hadn’t even seen it before now, but this looks like like a great alternative to Thor if you don’t care for the look, or glut of features you don’t really need most of the time.

I don’t have it, but it’s Skrock, so it’s a safe bet any way you look at it. the demo vid sounded great, and I really like the UI. like I said, it reminds me of like a slimmed down version of Thor, in both UI and functionality. even has a mini mod matrix and a couple of CV ins on the back that can presumably be routed wherever you like.

Horizons is a go-to of mine for a lot of standard electronic patches. 3 voices, effects, 3 LFOs, 3 envelopes, per-voice filtering and mixing(with panning). It's pretty easy to dial in. My only gripe is the lack of a legato voice trigger function. Also, I wish it had more global matrix slots.

I have all the Skrock REs except for Tectonic and, as much as I love some of the others, Horizons is honestly the one I use the most.

Not too excited by Horizons

But while checking it out, I stumbled across another Skrock synth that I never knew existed... Electrons. Anybody using that one? The glide delay feature certainly looks interesting
