What others are saying:

feature:
i actually dont like the gui for any of the spectronics synths. thats just my opinion.

quality:
excellent.. i dislike how the presets are all at least 35mb or better. if your on a slow comp, it takes a couple of seconds to switch from preset to preset.. this sux...

value:
its pretty good. its expensive because it is aimed at a particular usage: bass. it does it pretty well. i say get a computer with a fast processor and you will be set.

desirability:
like i said above...the gui sux. but hidden inside are sounds that can trample basses in some of the best sound modules (motif, korg, u name it...)

sound:
theres some good, hiphop basses, accoustic basses, and synth basses. they all sound good. the sound can be expressive if you know how to play bass. the sound can fit any musical style. for me personally its kinda difficult making this synth work with the type of music i do.

support:
never called. but they have a user group on yahoo. the creator chimes in and answers questions...

overall:
once i upgrade to a fast computer, and really learn how to program this thing, i should be able be more expressive with it. i would love to see a gui revamp on all spectronics softsynths... other than that, this thing is a beast...
