Absolutely Beautiful, Modern Wavetable Synthesizer !
Excels at harmonically rich textures and atmospheres. A very modern Wavetable synthesizer ! In this way, it compares to the Wavetable aspects of the Virus TI's … Very inspiring. Can not recommend it enough. It is the heart of the Quantum / Iridium. Nave presets will load into those synths:) Of course, you can go much farther on those hardware units. Nave on its own is an essential modern Wavetable synthesizer.
Amazing Synth
I wish the price had been closer to the ipad plugin cost. Amazing tones and easy interface to create your own patches. A must for any collection.
Music background: Music Producer for over 30 years
Nave isn't about the Patches
If you're looking for a synth that's all about presets, you probably shouldn't buy Nave. There's Sylenth, Nexus, and Predator for that, among others. You buy Nave to create your own sounds, and for that Nave is one of the best (and, being that the developer is in the process of liberally implementing user-suggested features this could end up being THE best) wavetable synthesizers around. For those unconvinced, try your hand at the "hidden" close controls at the bottom of the gui, the modulation capabilities there extend the range of this instrument stratospherically. So yes, if you are only into using other people's sounds, Nave is a very good synth for presets and thus a four star. If you're into having an elite sound designing tool, five stars...and beyond that rating as soon as the major upgrade version becomes available this Summer (free for those whom already own Nave).
Music background: Professional opera composer
Great sounding Synth
Waldorf Nave Synth has many patches which you will not find in any other synths. Great addition to whatever soft synths you may have.
