No. Syntronik 1 remains Syntronik 1, despite being able to be opened in Syntronik 2 Free CS Version. Syntronik 2 updates all the old synths to SYN2 versions, AND the Max version adds 11 NEW Synths. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abacab 5,395 Posted April 30 (edited) 8 minutes ago, cclarry said: Syntronik 2 updates all the old synths to SYN2 versions Well that's partly true. Partly because the updated synths do not come with 100% v2 presets. It's a mix of the old and new. I think a lot of the original confusion that some users had was with this point. The synth upgrades are partial content upgrades. Only the upgraded presets can be used in the new editor. If this GB goes all the way to 33, it will result in you having the equivalent content of Syntronik 2 MAX. Even if you are still only running Syntronik 2 CS. The synth engines are the same for all Syntronik 2 editions. Edited April 30 by abacab 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it sounds to me like this has a really good chance of going ALLTHEWAY!!! 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InstrEd 3,828 Posted April 30 I still think with how many GB's these sampled libraries take up they should come with a tag-along Group Buy for Hard Drives 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InstrEd 3,828 Posted April 30 I was looking over the fine-print on this Group Buy and Pete has let me down again. No free Keyboard 😆 What the Fudge is going on 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(tip: if you have already installed a synth in the Syntronik 2 CS version, you just need to click on reinstall in IKPM) Holy crap!!! 19.3 GB 🤪 Edited May 1 by abacab 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
telecode 101 1,364 Posted May 1 Who am I kidding. I will probably get in on this. So what are peoples favorite ones so far? I have been using virtual synths for a while and have a pretty good idea what I use. I mostly use them for bass , pads, and stabs. Usually music in the mid to late 70s to late 80s sounds.. Any recommendations? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got Syntronik 2 with TS 3.5, so that only left the 11 new synths that come in the Max Version to get! I've probably thrown away $40, because S2 Max will probably be in TS 4, but $40 for 11 synths (or more) isn't such a bad thing I guess! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
