madrona labs aalto

Post by Gill »

Just bought it yesterday, pretty badass so far, still figuring out some of the routing differences between it and standard subtractive stuff.
Who's using it? What do you think??

I can't use it cuz it's such a CPU hog. but I know guys that love it.

after a couple weeks with this thing, Im in love. Its very much its own, unique soft synth. Tons of modulation, mixes fm and subtractive stuff, cool 2nd envelope, I'm sold....made 2 or 3 tracks with it already. Definitely sounds like Truncate is using it. Its well worth the 100 bucks

tbh,i'm 99% sure that TRUNCATE uses a real analog Modular System for most of his stuff

haha, not really worth fussing over, but:
just found this interview where he says does he uses aalto and he mostly software. That was random

Been using this in demo mode, and really like it. Planning to buy it soon and then use it to its full capabilities!

tried it (demo) yesterday too because of this thread. really liked it although I have to get used to those big buttons (cutoff for instance). Two instances of it with some automation was about 30% cpu usage (macbook pro, core2duo 2,54, 4GB). UHE`s Ace with highest quality settings needs much more cpu on my notebook than the Aalto (just comparing in terms of cpu usage)

Maybe this will be my next purchase =)
