Fascinating & Fun
sonicraft- Pros
- Deep, flexible, unusual, and entertaining to use. Many different types of synthesis & effects modules, and interesting ways to have modules interact. Powerful control of parameters. A user can fairly quickly build rich sounds and layered sequences from pre-made pieces or from the ground up. Sunvox lets you work in unusual ways, and think in a different model than the usual DAW. Plenty of helpful video tutorials. Developer seems very responsive to his user-base and has created a unique product. Currently (mid 2012) the Mac OS X version is free (along with other computer platforms), and the iOS and Android versions are $5. This is a helpful combo, allowing you to learn the program on your computer and your device.
- Cons
- Initial learning curve is steep, and the program does require some basic knowledge of synths, and this particular type of modular environment. The non-graphic "tracker" sequencer takes some getting used to. Some menu-items are a bit small and hard to select on the smaller devices. There are ways to do many things, but I think they require some inside knowledge.
- Summary
- The right-out-of-the-box experience requires patience and trust in one's self. The interface is logical and intuitive, but not at first. It is user-friendly, but the user has to do a fair amount of learning to get to that place. It is a strange and rubbery interface where dragging around on the screen expands and contracts different parts of the interface. There are cryptic functions and shortcuts in old-school menus. One piece of advice is to watch a bunch of the videos and pay attention to different things that are accessed in the demos. I've only had it for a few days and can't do anything very impressive yet, but I'm really enjoying getting to know it. I could spend hours tinkering around with this. It's a serious set of tools, but I still feel like it is the most fun toy I've gotten in a long while.
