I had the pleasure to betatest it (not as much as i wished, but that's life).
Take a listen to the preset mp3s.

Mmmh, another preset monster. Does it have some fancy modulation possibilities?
(Btw.: How comes you're beta tester? Interestingly I worked with Michael Kleps (who IS reFX) on the AMIGA version of Bomberman back in the days.) :)

Good - now maybe they'll get a move on with Octasid!

Gotta say I don't generally dig the whole 'rompler' thing, but Refx DO have a good track record of creating synths of a unique character. I will definitely be checking out the demo when it becomes available :)

It's basically a rompler with limited modulation possibilities. it has filters, an arpeggiator and various fxes. I tried to convince Mike to add some more modulation possibilities but he decided to stand a point on the rompler stuff. And, after all, he was right.
Nexus is a real monster: it sounds much better than any other rompler i tried and enough presets to keep you going for a long time. and you can always alter them (not so radically, but you can) to make them fit your needs.

About mr. M.K., i contacted him after buying TBL (his first vsti), proposed him to do a SID VSTi (wich became QuadraSID) and been doing betatesting and/or presets for him since then. :)

I don't think there would be any problem if you write him, explain and who you are :) by now, anyway, he should be under pressure for Nexus, so maybe it's better if you wait a bit.

Well, it's strictly Dancefloor, Trance and what you call it. But the demos sound pretty impressive indeed. At last, nothing for daddy. :wink:

RK: True, but i was impressed by the Orch expander (wich i don't have).

Heck there is enough people here to help Beta Test.

On the next product/project he should do a closed beta test utilizing this site. He would get valuable help.

ReFX really make great plugs. The instruments are very good, but I also loved the bitcrusher. (which had the shape of a C64)..

Cheers,

Reyn.
