If you’ve used Spire, let us know what you think of it!
Nice sound and a sensible basic GUI, but what if I don’t want to do Jarre and Daft Punk covers? Does anyone write music with synths that isn’t dubstep or squealy prog/jazz leads? ARGH.

Looks like the perfect synth to me, at least on the paper, have to try it now !
Looks great : 4 osc, all the effects, modulation matrix, polyphony …
wow this synth looks truly unique…………………………………………….
Its just another boring depressing nasty sounding digital synth that actually sounds really out of date. THe sort of shit playing in that demo is well over 10 years old
i think synth design is really stuck in a time warp, same old dull crap.
worthless software shit. Prophet 12 yes
Do you even patch?
“a graphical interface provides unparalleled usability” – I do believe GUI’s has been around quite a while now…
… and all I see is inconsistent labeling of parameters and nothing special in terms of UX. Is this yet another case of marketing spewing buzz words? Kinda like how all video games are “addictive” these days?
Downloaded the Demo… started to work with it… and yes it sounds great…and the layout is quick to understand and invites you to improvise… it is responsive to every click and does not crash…I like it very much…and it will be on my new record
