Just found this while browsing the Rob Papen website.
Looks like it's a synth based on the Predator Engine and is focused on Bass sounds.
Looks interesting.
http://www.robpapen.com/subboombass.html
Looks like the cost for the online version will be 99 Euros or $119 dollars
For the lazy...

Really doesn't seem to be any different than what the Predator can do...
An Eagle may soar, but Weasels don't get sucked into jet engines. |

True, and it says it's based off the Predator engine....but...."2 Oscillators with Analogue types waveforms and tuned percussion waveforms. "
I don't think the Predator has tuned percussion waveforms...so that should open up some new sounds for one.
I'm thinking tuned percussion with some FM possibly. Could be able to get some nice punchy stuff out of that.

Has to do with that License contol, syncrosoft whatever thingy. |

No problems here with Cubase5 ...I used the virtual dongle from syncrosoft,but it should also work with a hardware dongle.
If you have problems ...try to installing syncrosoft new ,before you deleting the subboombass trial licence  |

It's all freakin messed up.
I can't go into Cubase anymore.
Whatever I try, the syncrosoft thing is still remembering the Subboombass registry settings or something, and the Cubase license is alll gone now. |
