but everything else i've had of his is.... meh at best?
ie, this is the second time with Plaits and i WANT to like it. just..... don't.
Plaits recently clicked with me. I saw it less as THE VOICE (as I had previously seen Braids as) and more as a utility. Nothing else comes close to having so many usable voice options in such a small footprint. Basic mono osc? Check. Chords? Check. Percussion? Check? 10+ other modes? Yep. I'd like to find some space for Rings and Braids back in my system at some point, but I'm packed to the brim with modules as it is. I think I can lose a few modulators and chord stuff which I'm not using as often, but I wouldn't turn down a second Plaits at all. Plaits + Rings + Plonk would make for some really wild poly string emulation, now that I think about it... hmmm.
Always wanted to try out Tides, too, now that I think about it. Maybe he'll update Warps as well. Must reevaluate the rack.
