    Fantastic Synth: epic sounds.

    I haven't had a lot of time to program in depth, but the depth and sonic clarity of the presets are superb. There a beautiful evolving glassy tones that are perfect for my ambient productions. I need more time to explore as this synth is deep, but so far I'm happy I chose this ahead of Diva for the moment.
