This is my little review of the Pro Pack:
It's an incredible high quality package for a very low price. Everything is useful. Modular V2 is much better than V1, it sounds different too and it sound is richer and fuller. I didn't have the M2, so my buy was exceptionally good. I already got the STS4000, but it's nice to have the 3000 too, for smaller projects.
The qualities of the Plug-ins are superb! Really nice, probably, the best way to define them would be with the word “smooth” and “worm”, which is uncommon for these kind of plug-ins!
M2 it's the Queen of the party, no doubt! I was impressed by the sound quality. I've tried Reaktor and there is no comparison, unless you are talking about some very complex patches that sound fantastic. For example:
Mystic Journey 2, a really fantastic synth! Superb!
Impressed by Partials Sample Pool, cos you can use 16 notes polyphony, but the sound of course, it’s not as sharp and fat, but certainly very practical and useful.
Unfortunately, for my four DSP card Pulsar Plus I, a few synths would not even load, like the Ambitosphere Box.
Fasic FM with Filter: very good E pianos, really useful for so many things. Fantastic!
All those kind of machines like Blues for man, sounds quite empty, or… don't know, like a bad radio… Didn't like any of the machines at all, I would never use something like that. If anybody has experienced with Rebirth knows the difference. The sounds in Rebirth are incredibly inspiring, those are incredible uninspiring. Clubbing Patch is quite the same for me as all the other machines.
Dist-taste, don't know what to say, not very useful and extremely big!
E-Pianos, quite good and very useful... I realise that I give my yes or no to a device or synth in regard to the level of usability it has, this is the point, isn't it?
FM Plus, very useful, great sounds and possibilities! Nice organs out of it!
Heavy Machinery, really fantastic, superb! I liked it particularly much.
Hybrid, extremely useful and flexible, very good indeed!
Modulacoder, too big for me, can't use it. Same with Modulasinger.
Pad Machine, extremely useful, real great sounds out of it, with many possibilities.
********************************************
1) The Pulsar Mixer is better than the Big Mixer 2, but it's difficult to get at it, there is so many possibilities, it's great! It's probably subjective, cos I don't have how to prove it, but Pulsar Mixer seems to sound better, more transparent than the other mixers.
2) I think that I bought a PERFECT BUY!
3) Stable? I'm not sure what you mean, but it works fine. Pulsar OS has some minor problems still, but the Pro Pack is something else, you can not say it’s stable or unstable. Anyway, everything appears to work fine for me.
4) I like everything; it's a damn useful package!
