Hi

I just bought this so I'm using the latest version of the VS and the Syncrosoft LM. I'm finding a few of the sounds don't seem to sound right to me - I don't think this is a problem with the sound design but rather a bug - no-one would deliberately programme these sounds. For example with the first 6 Celmpads (VS/Pads) all I get is a horrible weak buzzy sound and they are all very similar. I've recorded an example - is this really how it's supposed to sound?

There are other patches too that sound like some elements are missing basically.

exact same problem here.

sometimes patches even sound different, when progamming a lot, you notice this:

Have a sound you like, twist a know, turn it back, sounds different then before..really strange..

Prophet V is bugfilled... alas.. love it sound, but on Dual G5 machines you can only use 1 instance, or the sound will crackle. they know it, but still no update

Hi - at least it's not just my system. I thought is it my speakers? but it's the same on my headphones (and Genelecs/Sennheiser 650's). Celmpad 05 sounds the worst - I know it's not supposed to sound like it does, no self respecting sound designer would make this. I tried changing the cutoff but that makes no difference - however all these patches use the bandpass filter and I think that is what's at fault - it's not responding how it should. The High pass seems strange as well.

How this could not have been picked up before release though is strange?

Well it's over a year since I reported this bug and Arturia have not made any updates or bugfixes or even given us a definite eta on a fix or assurance it is still being worked on

- is this a record for a major company? Is this product dead? Is this forum of any value? Do Arturia even listen?

has this been fixed in the new beta?

I would love to buy the V collection, but I am a big prophet VS fan and it would be one of the main reasons for my purchase.

actually, it should be fixed in beta 3, I also notified them of of it during beta testing.

but I didn't have a chance to check it
