Amaranth Audio Cycle review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

Amaranth Audio Cycle is a bold leap into the future of synthesis, offering a brilliant, cutting-edge sound through its unique "vertex synthesis" method. While its innovative design and excellent presets are commendable, the synth is not for the faint-hearted. Users may find themselves challenged by its complexity and occasional bugs, but those who persevere will be rewarded with a palette of vibrant and unusual sounds. The Cycle's modern interface and fresh approach make it a standout in the digital instrument realm, though potential buyers should be ready for a steep learning curve and currently limited to Windows users.
