Let’s make sure the question isn’t rhetorical first shall we?

This looks interesting. Don’t know why anyone should denigrate another (free) synth to big up this one. If you don’t like something, don’t mention it. For this to be good others don’t have to fail. They are contributing their time and work for zero cash. Be respectful.

Thanks Liam, the synth looks great and its a generous gift from the dev. One thing: in the pic above, there is indeed also a delay (I assume it’s working).

your statement about surge basically disqualified the totality of your review and all of your statements for all eternity.

Some Surge wavetables kinda have some fluctuations on sound quality, but most on the run, this should be fine for sound design or anything, though you need some knowledge of how to run that synth.

Surge Low Quality? It’s one of the most fully featured excellent sounding freeware synths available today. The range of sounds that can be achieved with it is absolutely huge.

This is a great comment, but i’m just boggled about Surge being “low quality”

First off the synth was built with Synthedit. Gui is well laid out, easy to dial in sounds. It is not resizable and some knobs are bit too small on higher rez screens. I compared Pneuma to Podolski, (which I haven’t found a higher quality free synth then Podolski by u-he… yet) Listening to Init saw wave there was a bit of whistling noise on lower registers, and also when you just press, as well after you just release a key you get a noise. The tone was surprisingly rich and of higher quality, not as smooth as Vital though. Would definitely compare to some paid synths tones. Effects are of decent quality as well. The developer is probably a musician, therefore you get a lot of usable, high quality preinstalled patches (unlike Vital.) I was especially impressed by choirs in Orchestral section, also nice fx and bells, (very lively sounding even without effects.) It is a bit of CPU intensive so not a good idea to run many instances. (Ran on i7 11th gen) If you make electronic music this synth is definitely for you. “Analog” aspect is present and ok, but you will not get a rich Moog sound. I tried other synths by Ronan Fed, and wasn’t really impressed, but this one is definitely a good replacement for lower quality synths such as Surge, and with loads of very usable presets it’s a keeper.

Of course there is a delay section, right below the chorus….. which synth did you review?
