Yes, if you're a techie and know how to fine tune a Windows system. Pulsar works great but it's not a plug it in and forget it system. The synths are great, the audio routing is extremely flexible, the Samplers are pretty good (still a few bugs). There's only three other cards that are anything like it: Korg Oasys (discontinued), PowerCore (which has just barely introduced synths) and UAD-1 (which doesn't do synthesis). Pulsar is the only one trying to do it all and considering how technical this stuff is they do it pretty good in spite of the negativity from dissatisfied users.

If you're really in Kuwait, I wouldn't expect excellent tech support direct from Creamware. It seems good tech support is spotty here and there, but then again, I could be wrong.

One system was left unmentioned:
DIGIDESIGN ProTools. I'll be installing a new Protools system on monday.
It has also synths. And if u're good with money go with mac and Logic TDM.

Cya.

If $ was not a problem I'd immediately buy a new dedicated PC to Subhuman's specs and install Scope and starting building my own synths !

Ahhhh... what a sweet dream :smile:

Please contact subhuman. He works at http://www.infinitevortex.com He will set up a smooth running system with excellent support for you. But be warned: Scope or PowerPulsar need some time to get used to it. It IS complicated! You can do whatever you want. That is good for everything you need. It is bad as long as you are not familiar with all the wiring.
As soon as you are familiar with the system it's great! :grin:
Happy pulsaring
Micha
