Crash after crash after crash updated and still crash after crash

Cashed before update and still crashes every auv3 host , it’s unfit for f…ing purpose.

Oh my…

Never imagined how much fun and what amazing sounds this thing could make. Excellent interface, though some bits are quite tiny, still makes for wonderfully simple tweaks to the already quite fantastic presets. That FM Mode swept with a slow LFO and doused in reverb is a magical experience.

I’ve only messed with if for a couple of hours. I’m sure there will be some quibbles stumbled upon in time, but for now so glad to not be missing out on this well thought-out synth engine.

Another Winner!

I have ALL the Waldorf apps and they are, IMO, simply amazing! So much so, that I’ll likely pick up the PPG Wave 3.V for my laptop as well (perhaps others, if they are available; I’m a hardware synth user and an iPad musician, so using a pc is new territory to me!)
Keep up the astounding work!
