Needs work – Modular Synthesizer Review

Pros: Sounds good. Modules are pretty well modeled and sound reasonable. Can do complex feedback. The CV controls are modeled at high enough sample rates to be useful. Attractive looking display. Modules will be very familiar to users of traditional 5U classic modulars like the MOTM, Moog V, etc. ...which is a shame, because: Cons: Terrible patching UX. Hard to imagine how someone thought that this was usable. The cable hit areas are perfect for the first plug, and then inexplicable fail 9 out 10 times on the second plug. Some plugs highlight, but are unconnectable at times. Worse yet, you have to drag the cables. No touch then touch. This makes the experience of patching and unpatching *tedious*. A major problem for a modular synth. Free idea for the developer: use the accelerometer to droop the cables so I can move them out of the way. Dragging around patched modules causes the app to sporadically reroute the cables to previously configurations. Buggy as hell. Feels like the developer rushed the patching UX and spent all their time on the art. I hope it gets fixed in a later version, cause I bought the pro pack.
