The stock synths that come with Pulsar are crap. OK, that's bit harsh and I know some people like the UKnow, and some even like the EZ, but against even the free synths out there they are pretty limp. The Blue is the best of the bad lot. As a "real" synth it almost makes it - almost.

But with this update the Blue really steps back up. It can compete again. The filter section is an order of magnitude better, the presets are better, the feel and control are better. You can finally get a pad that sounds lush rather than just like three slightly detuned and weak 12dB oscillators.

This is a great update. CW should scrap their version and bundle this with any new cards.

yippee!

phatter sound than the original blue! - the oscillators and noise make this instrument sound much thicker and less digital than the original blue synth - great for the same style sounds, now warmer.

great modification dr. hummel! i now have no use for the original blue synth, as it sounds wimpy and puny and will probably delete it!

YE! The Bluesynth is my favourite Pulsar synth and this update is so much better. I am writing a track using two bluesynths but I'm going to replace them by the hummel ones and see how much better it sounds.
