You got to remember, he is releasing this for free, not making any money off of it. What can you expect for free? I personally love what Trent is doing for the music industry. He's really spear heading this free music pay what you want deal very well. Radiohead was one of the first I know, but Tren...

Use mine for all the music I make as right now it's my only synth. t's great for portability and it's easy to get used to the small keys. Great raw sounds, too, it sounds REALLY like an analog machine while the Micron sounds like some crappy thrift-store M1 ripoff. Also, i've got a mini-kaoss pad o...

Between the micron and the lead 2x I would say definitely definitely the 2x. As a former owner, I can say that the 2x is a great synth, and you cannot beat the hands on control it has except for with a real analog synth. With that said though, I would take an Ion over both any day, same great sound ...

As much as I want to say the Evolver, I don't see many bands playing them. I don't hear them on records. I know they sell, but who is using them? What kind of music are they making? listen to cut copy, they use a lot of poly evolver stuff. I nominate: Virus Series (EBM basically revolves around thi...

I would like to note that the alpha juno does NOT have three oscillators, it has one oscillator and one sub oscillator. The Ajuno can have three waveforms running at once from its single oscillator, which is not the same thing as three oscillators, you cannot achieve that detuned sound. VSE's info o...

I'm liking this a lot, the sounds are great, especially that detuned pad that comes in around 2:20. Good stuff man!

very DM yet I cant put my finger on a particular period, it seems like it takes elements from many, but in a good way.

nice work man!
