Paul_in_wales Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Looks really interesting. I love the wavetable editor in the original icarus - I use that to make wavetables for my other wavetable synths. I prefer the results with the re-synthesis in that vs serum. Just checked my email and seems it launched back in October 2020 so I guess this is a best service new addition rather than a new product.

paulo Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Tone 2 seem to have a knack of making nice synths with nice UI's that sound good for at least twice as much money as might seem tempting. Or is that just me? 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_in_wales Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) lol yeah - and their upgrade pricing is pretty steep too - it's £85/$119 for me to upgrade from icarus 1. that's why I didn't do it when it first came out and then I promptly forgot it even existed!

I could’ve sworn I already had Icarus 2 but that first sentence made me double check hehe Jason makes a great NKS implementation for Icarus 2. Highly recommended. https://freelancesoundlabs.com/index.php/downloads/komplete-kontrol-vst-packs/item/226-icarus-nks-browser-for-komplete-kontrol-maschine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 (edited) I picked up Tone2 Warlock for cheap recently. It's a pretty good synth that also includes six Tone2 Firebird sound banks. Edited April 27, 2021 by abacab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
