"People really should be excited about Syntronik. It gives you an amazing sound upfront that can be fully modified to suit your own style. Built upon some of the coolest synths ever, the sound and the mood is there."
AskAudio's GW Childs fired up Syntronik and got his synths stacked, packed and racked! Here are some of the key comments from his extensive review:
"Before you even press a key, you can see the love. A lot of time went into Syntronik. It’s not just in the sound, it’s in the GUI, the presentation and the environment as a whole."
"So damn beautiful on a Retina display, I swear I’m playing a real Juno-60."
"Syntronik is also a little bit of a mini-studio in itself. There’s an effect page that looks like a four space Euro Rack case and 38 ‘modules’ that really, really make a huge difference on the sound and feel of the synths within."
"In actuality the ability to switch out filters is embedded with the faceplate of each synth. Very clever."
"Syntronik could easily become the Mainstage of Synths, as you can map four synths across one keyboard for each song in your set with the appropriate effects. Once finished just go to another saved preset for a different song."
"The arpeggiator works like a classic arpeggiator, but can also act as a sequencer, where you can program custom patterns, which pitch with the keys pressed. Because you can stack arps, things can get very crazy in one patch or one set!"
"The installation was so simple it made my head hurt. Just download Authorization Manager, input the serial and it pretty much takes care of the rest. This is a very polished package."
GW's verdict was:
"People really should be excited about Syntronik. It gives you an amazing sound upfront that can be fully modified to suit your own style. Built upon some of the coolest synths ever, the sound and the mood is there."
