The factory presets often have generic names which isn't cool. But if you have the Babylon & Expansions you get plenty of genre-specific presets. I'd never buy it for the full price though. In fact, I got it for free with a coupon that's floating around the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tianzii Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 I’ve just tried a demo of Babylon 1. Wow! Amazing. I mean… to do all it can do and keep the CPU usage under 10% load is amazing! And it has great presets for layering. Added myself on the waiting list for v2. If v2 would add a preset manager so that I can add presets as favorites, or with possibility to tag them then this would be one of my goto synth cause it consumes such low CPU! I’m amazed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTsongwriter Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 Don't buy any W.A. Production apps. They are all half baked plugins that never get many updates and are buggy. After buying 3 of thier half baked plugins, I realized how poorly the design is and how unwell it's made. If your buying the plugin for the appearance only, then go for it, if you desire what they say about the product to be true, dream on. They worked so hard to make their plugins nice looking, but seemed to not care to much about making them stable and sound good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 Alternatively, give it a few months and PIB will be all but giving it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read nothing but good reviews for Deres, for example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They worked so hard to make their plugins nice looking, but seemed to not care to much about making them stable and sound good. If that works for you, sure. Do it. I have more than 10 plugin from WAProd. They can be used while offline, no DRM stuff installed on my system, and if I’m changing the laptop/computer (aka selling it), I can give them an email and they’ll gladly help. They have super nice support. Been talking to them and they were always responsive. I can’t give advice for everyone, but I can say that for me, WA plugins are a must have, at least a few of them like Vinai XTT, Deres, Imprint, Multibender, KSHMR stuff, Outlaw lite etc. These can always be used in offline mode and without the fear that you’ll get your projects unopened in the future. The only thing I don’t like is that you can’t resell them. But never the less, if I’m getting something, I’m getting it to stay, so for me there’s never a downside. And of course, I do agree that there’s never an option that suits all. Always find what works for you, not for others. This is what I do. Cheers! ✌️ Edited September 7 by Tianzii 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audioschmaudio Posted September 16 Author Share Posted September 16 I bought it too. I believe owners of Babylon 1 don't need to rush, the upgrade price is $9.90 too. I kinda regret buying it though. I'm not saying it's bad, but damn, why do I keep buying cheap synths when I already have plenty of top notch synths? I guess I'm not really cured from GAS yet 😭 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'm not really cured from GAS yet 😭 I don’t know this either. I mean there’s already a bunch of synths that are free of charge around like Vital, Podolski, TyrellN6, Zebralette, TripleChese, SurgeXT, BeatzilleCM, ZebraCM, and a lot more that sound great. Not to say some of us already have the top paid ones like Sylenth1, Serum, Spire (even with AI presents generator), Massive, Massive X, FM8, Diva, Ana, Nexus, AirMusic stuff and all Kontakt, UVI and/or SampleTank instruments. And still, we love to twist some new knobs every now and then. ”Hey! Let’s twist again!” :)) I’ll be honest, I like the sound of it, but it seems that it needs a bigger sound brother in front of it.
